GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE
The appliance is a robot designed and built to automatically cut grass in gardens and lawns at
any time of the day.
It is small, compact, silent, waterproof and easy to transport in relation to the various
characteristics of the surfaces to mow.
During operation, the robot mows the area delimited by paving and/or barriers (fences, walls,
etc.). When the robot detects that there is no grass or encounters an obstacle, it changes route
in a random manner and starts mowing again in the new direction.
Based on its operating principle (“random”), the robot automatically mows the entire delimited
area of the lawn (see figure).
The maximum lawn surface that the robot can mow depends on a series of factors, such as:
• the characteristics of the area (irregular perimeters, uneven surfaces, divided areas, etc.)
• the characteristics of the lawn (type and height of the grass, humidity, etc.)
• the conditions of the blade (level of sharpness, without residuals and encrustations, etc.)
• the model of the robot and type of batteries installed
The L50EU model is equipped with a lithium battery, which guarantees longer duration and
allows mowing surfaces of up to 400 m² (4300 sq ft).

SAFETY INFORMATION
SAFETY REGULATIONS
During the design and construction, the Manufacturer carefully considered the personal• health and safety risks of those interacting with the robot. In addition to respecting the
applicable current laws, the Manufacturer adopted all the “regulations of good manufacturing
techniques”. The purpose of this information is to advise users on placing special attention to
prevent risks. However, prudence and caution is irreplaceable. Safety is also in the hands of
operators who interact with the appliance.
When using the robot for the first time, it is recommended to carefully read the entire• manual and to fully understand it, especially the safety information.
Carefully read the instructions in this manual and those that apply directly to the machine,• especially the safety information. Carefully study this manual to prevent regrettable accidents.
It is always too late to remember what you should have done after the fact.
Lift and move the robot according to the information reported directly on the packaging, on• the appliance and in the user instructions provided by the Manufacturer.
Pay attention to the symbols that appear on the rating plates; their shape and colour are• important for safety purposes. Keep them legible and follow the instructions.
The lawn mower can only be used by people who know how to operate it and who have read• and understood the instructions in this manual.
Only use the robot for the intended purposes specified by the manufacturer. Improper use of• the robot may lead to personal health and safety risks and economic losses.
Before using the lawn mower, make sure that there are no objects on the lawn (toys, branches,• clothing items, etc.).
When using the robot, make sure the work area is clear of people (in particular, children, the• elderly or disabled people) and domestic animals to prevent safety risks. To prevent this risk,
it is recommended to programme the production activity of the robot in suitable times.
Never allow people to sit on the robot.•
Never lift the robot to inspect the blade during operation.•
Do not place hands and feet under the robot when it is on and moving, especially in the wheel• zone.
Do not tamper with, sidestep, eliminate or bypass the safety devices installed.•
The non-observance of this requirement may cause serious personal health and safety
risks.
Keep the lawn mower in conditions of maximum efficiency by carrying out the maintenance• operations provided for by the Manufacturer. Good maintenance will allow obtaining the best
performances and longer operating times.
Before carrying out any maintenance and adjustments, which can also be executed by a user• with minimal technical competence, disconnect the electric power supply.
The user must ensure that all the necessary safety conditions are in place, especially when
working on the lower part of the lawn mower, following the Manufacturer’s procedures.

11 User’s manual
EN
Use the personal protection devices provided for by the Manufacturer, in particular, always• wear gloves when working on the blades and cutting disc.
Before replacing the batteries, always disassemble the blade.•
Operators who make repairs during the working life of the robot must have the necessary• technical expertise, skill and experience in this specific field. The non-observance of these
requirements can lead to personal health and safety risks.
The Manufacturing company shall not be held liable if non-original spare parts are used.•
Replace worn parts with original spare parts to guarantee the functionality and safety level.•
Do not use the robot on too wet grass or when it is raining.•
Do not use the robot in explosive and inflammable environments.•
ROBOT SAFETY DEVICES
Lift sensor1.
In the event that the robot is lifted from the ground, the blade will stop rotating in less than two
seconds.
Bumpers2.
The bumper sensor is activated when the mower strikes a solid object, which will stop the
movement in that direction and reverse itself away from the obstacle.
Inclinometer3.
If the robot works on a slope which is steeper than the maximum limit, or tips over, the robot will
stop the movement in that direction and reverse to avoid the slope.
Emergency stop switch4.
Located on the top outer surface of the robot, red in colour. Pressing this button at any time
during operation will stop immediately all mower movements and stop the rotation of the blades
within two seconds (< 2 seconds).
Over-current protection5.
Each of the motors (blade and wheels) are monitored continuously during operation for any
situation that may cause these motors to overheat. If this occurs in the wheel motor, the robot
will attempt to move in the opposite direction. If the over-current persists, the robot will stop
and signal an error. If the cutting motor overheats, then there are two types of intervention. If
the parameters fall within the first range, the robot will carry out the manoeuvre to unblock the
cutting blade. If the over-current is below the protection range, the robot will stop and signal a
motor error.

PREPARATION AND DEFINING THE BOUNDARIES OF THE WORK AREAS
Preparation of the lawn to mow
Make sure that the lawn to mow is even and does not contain holes, stones or other obstacles.1. Otherwise,preparethe lawnby fillingin anyholes andremovingany obstacles.If some obstacles
cannot be removed, it is necessary to properly define and protect the interested areas.
Check that all the areas of the lawn do not exceed the allowable slopes (see “Technical2. Specifications”, page 9).
The sensors, which recognise the presence of the grassy surface, allow the robot to move freely
inside the lawn. The garden must be suitably checked and adjusted so that the robot has enough
space for recognising when there is no grass. Carefully follow the above points for the correct and
safe use of the robot.

PAVEMENT
The robot requires a area of at least
25 cm (9.84 inches) without grass
to stop safely and change direction.
Pavements or kerbs must be at least
25 cm wide (9.84 in.). Kerbs less than
25 cm (9.84 in.) must be protected
with additional paving or by placing
small arches in the ground, as shown

PROTECTIONS
The illustrations show an
example of the internal and
peripheral elements of the
correct work area. If elements
such as tree roots or exposed
wires are present, it is necessary
to delimit the perimeter of
these elements with paving,
walls or barriers to prevent the
malfunctioning of the robot.
Elements (trees, poles, etc.
ref. fig. obstacles) which do
not impede the robot’s normal
functioning do not require
delimiting.
Do not, under any circumstance,
leave areas which have not been
delimited by barriers inside the
work area, as these will prevent
the robot from functioning
properly (roots, external pipes,
work tools, etc.).

differences with a slope of up to 27°
provided that they gradually slope
down over a distance of more than
one metre.
SLOPES
Check that all the areas of the lawn do not exceed the admissible slopes (see “Technical
Specifications”, page 9).
Areas with steeper slopes or that are incompatible with the correct functioning of the robot (see
following points) cannot be mowed. Steeper slopes must be delimited.
The sensors of the robot allow detecting slopes, which cannot be tackled. The

Despite this, as a further protection, it is necessary to delimit the areas, which have
slopes that cannot be tackled.
It is recommended to check the robot when using for the first time on slopes that
are at the limit of the specifications.

STEEP SLOPES
The robot’s safety system will interpret sudden changes in the slope (greater than 15°) as an anomaly
and therefore, will reverse the direction and bring the robot back to safety continuing to mow the lawn.
Tree trunks which gradually rise from the ground or stones positioned to mark the boundary of
flower-strips which gently descend onto the grassy surface are also interpreted as slope changes.
DOWNWARD SLOPE
OK
included between 0° and -15°
-15°
OK
UPWARD SLOPE
+15°
included between 0° and +15°
The robot can tackle height
differences with slopes of up to 15° if
they slope down suddenly.
Areas with slopes greater than those admissible cannot be mowed with the
robot.
Check the robot when using for the first time on slopes that are at the limit of the
specifications.
