Automower FAQ

How does an automower find its way around the yard?

There are two main types of automowers. One that uses guide and boundary wires and one that uses GPS and is configured with a phone. For the automowers which use wires we install the boundary and guide wires around the perimeter of the lawn and around obstacles. These wires emit signals that the mower detects, allowing it to navigate and maintain within the designated mowing areas. For the automowers which utilize GPS technology we configure these system with a phone.

Can automowers handle uneven terrain and slopes?

Most automowers are designed to handle slopes and uneven terrain, with specific models capable of managing inclines of varying degrees. It’s important to choose a model that matches the specific topography of your lawn.

What happens if it rains? Will the automower still work?

Automowers are designed to be weather-resistant and can operate in the rain. However, performance can vary, and some models are equipped with rain sensors that recommend or initiate a return to the charging station during heavy downpours to protect the lawn and ensure optimal mowing results.

How do automowers deal with obstacles like toys or branches on the lawn?

Automowers are equipped with sensors that can detect obstacles. When they encounter an object, they will stop, reverse, and redirect their path to avoid it. Regular cleaning of the lawn to remove large obstacles is still recommended for best performance.

Are automowers safe around pets and children?

Yes, automowers are designed with safety features such as collision sensors and lift and tilt sensors that stop the blades if the mower is lifted or tipped over. Nevertheless, it is advised to supervise children and pets when the mower is operating, especially initially, to ensure they stay clear of the active mowing area.

How long does the battery last, and how often does it need to be charged?

Battery life varies by model and lawn size. Automowers automatically return to their charging stations when their battery runs low. Charging frequency and duration depend on the lawn size and the model’s battery capacity.

What maintenance does an automower require?

Automowers require minimal maintenance. Regular cleaning of the wheels and cutting blades, checking and replacing blades when necessary, and occasional software updates are generally all that’s needed.

Can automowers be used at night?

Yes, automowers are very quiet and can be programmed to mow at any time, including during the night. This is beneficial for those who prefer not to disrupt daytime activities or prefer the aesthetic of a freshly mown lawn in the morning.

How is the automower secured against theft?

Automowers typically include security features such as PIN code protection, alarm systems, and GPS tracking (in some models) to help deter theft and track the unit if stolen.

How much does an automower cost?

Costs vary depending on the model and its capabilities. There are options suitable for smaller residential lawns to more advanced models designed for large estates, with prices reflecting these capabilities and additional features.

Can I configure stripes on my lawn?

Some models of automowers allow you to stripe your lawn.
