DANGER
Risk of damage
Cables and lines lying unprotected in the mowing area
can be damaged!
Do not leave any unsecured cables and lines in the
mowing area.
WARNING
Danger of burns
Do not charge the lawnmower if the lawnmower itself,
the charger or the socket is damaged.
Do not charge the lawnmower if the temperature is
above 40 °C (104 °F) or below 5 °C (41 °F).
Interrupt the charging process if an abnormal odour,
noise or light appears.
Avoid charging in the vicinity of flammable or explosive
materials.
Note
Remove all protective films before the initial startup.
Preparing the lawn
WARNING
Risk of injury from sharp blades.
The blades of the mower can cause serious cuts.
Make sure that children and pets are not in the mowing
area.
1. Remove branches, leaves, toys, cables, stones or
other obstacles from the lawn
Note
Before installing the robotic mower, the lawn should be
cut to a maximum height of 10 cm and the clippings col-
lected in order to guarantee optimum mowing results
and lawn health.
Illustration C
Note
The size of the mowing area must not exceed 1500m²
for the RCX 4 model and 3000m² for the RCX 6.
High walls or trees should not cover more than 30 % of
the lawn area.
Narrow areas that are narrower than 3 metres and
longer than 5 metres should not take up more than 30%
of the lawn area. This ensures sufficient coverage of the
satellite position signal.
Installing the charging station
DANGER
Risk of injury
Do not use damaged cables or plugs. Check the cables
and plugs regularly!
Note
Ensure that the lawnmower can drive out of the charg-
ing station and return without being obstructed. Place
the charging station on a flat surface that is covered by
the household WLAN.
Illustration D
There must be no obstacles within a radius of 1.5 m.
Illustration E
Ensure that the charging station is securely positioned
on a level surface.
Illustration F
1. Secure the charging station to the lawn using the
ground spikes.
2. Connect the mains cable to the charging station.
Note
Ensure that the power cable is securely fastened to the
floor.
Installing the RTK antenna
Note
Make sure that the location of the RTK antenna is cov-
ered by the household WLAN.
Illustration G
Note
To ensure good signal strength, install the RTK antenna
on an open lawn in the open air. Keep at least 1.5 m
away from buildings and large obstacles such as trees.
Illustration H
Note
Place the RTK antenna in an upright position.
Illustration I
1. Fasten the RTK antenna to the ground using the
pegs.
2.
Connect the extension cable and charger.
Note
Ensure that the power cable is securely fastened to the
wall and floor.
Check the satellite signal:
Satellite reception indicator light
Lights up green: good signal strength
Lights up orange: weak signal strength
Lights up red: very weak signal
Note
If the location indicator light is orange, we recommend
moving the RTK antenna to a more suitable location.
If the location indicator light is red, the RTK antenna
must be moved to a more suitable location.
