Possible Causes

Low-hanging branches or furniture legs within boundary, Mower body height unsuitable for obstacles, Inadequate exclusion zones in boundary layout

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the mower before removing it from under any obstacle.

  • Modify environment: Trim low branches and raise or relocate garden furniture that the mower can drive under but not exit from.
  • Adjust boundary wire: Create islands or exclusion zones around problematic obstacles by looping the boundary wire around them as per AL-KO instructions.
  • Test path: Manually push the mower around the area to identify other potential trapping points and adjust accordingly.
  • Monitor initial runs: Observe the mower after changes to ensure it no longer gets trapped.
