The Base Station
Place the base station in the open area where it is easy to connect to
electricity outlets. Install the height adjuster first and then connect the two
ends of the perimeter wire to the base station. Be sure that the wire goes
through the right center of the station’s bottom. There should be no obstacles
right in front of the base station and ensure that there be 3-5meters of straight
wire ahead of the station.
One end of the charger connects to the base station and the other connects to
the electricity outlets. Be sure that the charger is in fine situation. Put the
robot mower in the rounded area, turn the power button on, and use the IC
card in the induction place, then the mower starts to work.
Description of Operation
The machine starts to cut in circles first. If it hits something, it will turn
directions by its automotive anti-collision system, as well as the Infrared
Sensor System. If the front wheel is lifted up, the blades stop working within 3
seconds. If the holding time is more than 8 seconds, the whole machine stops
working.
When the mower moves near the perimeter wire, the mower can inspect the
magnetic field of the wire and automatically go around the hedge in a circle,
then go down the hedge in the clockwise direction and start automatic
mowing. The Infrared Sensor System and charging controlling system can
detect whether the mower has reached the base station or not. When the
mower reaches the station, it comes from the perimeter wire and returns to
the cutting area and mows in a random way.
When the mower comes to the area where the grass is thick, it begins to mow
in circles; if the blades are obstructed the machine stops working.
During the mowing process, you can use the remote control to make the
mower turn left/right, or go back to the base station for charging. If there are
places that mower can not reach to, you can use the remote control to adjust
the direction.
The mower can sense the battery level itself. If it is under a set value, the
mower will automatically return to the base station for charging and then
return to cut. If it rains suddenly, the rain sensors of the mower can inducts
the rain immediately that makes the mower turn to the base station.
