Introduction
The purpose of this Service Guide is to allow trained and certified technicians to
efficiently inspect, diagnose and repair the Robomower. If you have not completed
training, please contact your manager or supervisor to arrange training completion.
The Service Guide is divided into various sections to allow access to information in an
easy to use format. The sections in the beginning show the layout, wiring, parts and
construction of the Robomower. Mid sections show diagnostic techniques and the last
sections show repair and warranty procedures.
IMPORTANT: it is the policy of F. Robotics Acquisitions Ltd. that all agents, either
directly appointed or appointed by a distributor, should always show a duty of care to
customers. In most countries this is a legal requirement and. F. Robotics Acquisitions
Ltd. policy is to always meet these standards and to surpass them wherever possible.
All units inspected by a technician MUST, as a minimum standard, pass the General
Test prior to return to the customer.
Units which were actually repaired or had a certain part replaced, must go through
specific testing, of that system, in line with the procedures set out in this Service Guide.
The last part of each procedure has the appropriate test for that system.
In addition to testing a specific system or part, a General Test should always be
undertaken to ensure no hidden problems are missed and, most importantly, to ensure that
all safety systems are functioning.
If any doubt exists about diagnosis, repair, testing or any other technical aspect of the
Robomower, always be sure to seek further advice from a qualified source.
Finally, if you have any suggestions for improvement of this guide, either in content,
layout or additional material, please contact F. Robotics Acquisitions Ltd. through the
correct channels and this will be considered for future updates.
