How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF the mower before adjusting wiring or station.

  • Check guide wire connection: Ensure the guide wire is correctly connected to the charging station terminals and not broken.
  • Inspect guide path: Remove obstacles along the guide wire, especially in narrow passages.
  • Verify station alignment: Make sure the station is level and the guide wire runs straight out from the center.
  • Adjust settings: In the mower menu, increase the percentage of time the mower uses the guide wire to return home if available.
