Possible Causes

Working area too large for Gardena model capacity, Incorrect mowing schedule (too few hours per day), Obstacles or narrow passages not wired correctly, Dull blades tearing rather than cutting

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Press STOP and switch OFF the mower before handling blades or wires.

  • Check area size: Compare your lawn size with the maximum recommended area for your Gardena model. If oversized, reduce the area with boundary wire or increase mowing time.
  • Increase schedule: In the timer settings, extend daily mowing hours so the mower can cover the entire lawn more frequently.
  • Optimize wire layout: Ensure narrow passages are wired according to the manual so the mower can enter and exit reliably.
  • Replace blades: Fit new Gardena blades to ensure clean cutting and reduce missed strands.

After adjustments, allow several days of operation for the mowing pattern to even out the lawn.
