Robot lawnmower leaves clumps of grass and struggles in taller growth.

Possible Causes

Dull or chipped blades, Cutting height too low, Blade motor speed reduced due to wear, Excessive thatch or wet grass

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF the mower and wear gloves when handling blades.

  • Replace blades: Install new Ecovacs blades if the existing ones show rounding, chips, or rust.
  • Adjust height: Raise the cutting height and perform multiple passes over very tall grass.
  • Schedule changes: Increase mowing frequency so the mower cuts smaller amounts each time.
  • Dry conditions: Avoid mowing when grass is wet to reduce clumping.

If cutting remains weak despite new blades, the blade motor may be losing torque and should be tested or replaced.
