Starting up
Read the operating instructions fully before you start work on the
installation of the robot lawn mower. The quality of the installation work
affects how effectively the robot lawn mower works later on. 5.1 How it works
The robot lawn mower chooses its direction on a random basis. The robot lawn
mower works its way over every area which is enclosed within the perimeter
wire (18), so that the entire garden gets mowed. Whenever the robot lawn mower
detects a correctly installed perimeter wire (18), the robot lawn mower turns
about and drives in a different direction within the area. All zones that you
wish to protect within the lawn area e.g. garden ponds, trees, furniture or
flower beds must be cordoned off by the perimeter wire (18). The perimeter
wire (18) must form a closed circuit. If the robot lawn mower bumps into an
obstacle within the mowing area, it reverses and then continues mowing in a
different direction (Fig. 3).
5.2 Sensors The robot lawn mower is equipped with a number of safety sensors.
· Lifting sensor:
If the robot lawn mower is raised at the back by more than 30° from the ground
or if a front wheel (12) loses contact with the ground, the robot lawn mower
and the rotation of the blades (10) will be stopped immediately.
· Tilting sensor:
If the robot lawn mower tilts severely in any direction, the robot lawn mower
and the rotation of the blades (10) are stopped immediately.
· Obstruction sensor:
The robot lawn mower is able to detect obstacles in its path. If the robot
lawn mower collides with an obstacle, the robot lawn mower and the rotation of
the blades will be stopped immediately and the mower will reverse away from
the obstacle.
· Rain sensor:
The robot lawn mower is equipped with a rain sensor (5) to prevent the robot
lawn mower from operating in the rain. The robot lawn mower returns to the
charging station (19) when it detects rain and is completely recharged there.
Once the rain sensor (5) is dry again, the robot lawn mower will stay in the
charging station (19) for another two hours. Only then will it begin working
again, provided it is still
in an active time window. If the rain sensor (5) has been activated (this is
recommended in order to exert less stress on the lawn), you will see a bright
cloud in the display (50). If the sensor triggers, a dark cloud with rain
drops will appear. Do not short-circuit the two metal sensors with metal or
any other conductive material. This will impede the correct operation of the
robot lawn mower.
5.3 Preparations First, draw a sketch of your lawn. Include obstacles in your
sketch and draw up a plan for how you intend to protect them. This will make
it easier to find a good position for the charging station (19) and to lay the
perimeter wire (18) around bushes, flower beds, etc. (Fig. 4). If the grass is
taller than 60 mm it has to be shortened first to avoid exposing the robot
lawn mower to excessive load and adversely affecting its operating efficiency.
Use a conventional lawn mower or trimmer to do this. Remove all loose objects
from the lawn which could get damaged by the robot lawn mower or damage the
robot lawn mower itself. Have the following tools ready: A hammer, tongs, a
wire stripper and a spirit level (optional).
Fitting the battery A battery (A) from the Power-X-Change series is needed to
operate the robot lawn mower. Important: Depending on the model of your robot
lawn mower, it might not come complete with the battery (A). Open the battery
compartment cover (9). Press the pushlock button of the battery (A) and push
the battery (A) into the mount provided. Close the battery compartment cover
(9) and make sure that it latches in place correctly (Fig. 10). To remove the
battery (A), open the battery cover (9). Press the pushlock button of the
battery (A) and pull out the battery (A).
5.4 Charging station 5.4.1 Position of the charging station Determine the best
position for the charging station first (19). An outdoor socket outlet is
required which supplies a permanent supply of electricity so that the robot
lawn mower works at all times. The charging station (19) must be placed on a
flat area at the level of the turf. Make sure that the area is flat and dry.
Select a position which is in the shade, because it is best if the
rechargeable battery is charged up in a cool area. Also note that the
perimeter wire has to be laid in a straight line for least 2 m in front of the
charging station (19) (Fig. 5a). Curves immediately in front of the

GB
charging station (19) could cause problems when docking for charging.
5.4.2 Localization of the charging station When the rechargeable battery is
almost empty, the robot lawn mower returns to the charging station (19) by
following the perimeter wire (18) in a counterclockwise direction until it
reaches the charging station (19). Make sure, therefore, that the charging
station (19) faces in the right direction when you position it. (Fig. 5b)
5.4.3 Connecting the charging station to the power supply unit
1. Before you connect the charging station (19) to the power supply, check
that the mains power supply is 100-240 V at 50/60 Hz.
2. Connect the power supply unit (13) directly to a socket outlet. Do not use
the cable for any other use.
3. Do not use the power supply unit if it is damaged (13). In the event of
any damage to cables or the power supply unit (13), contact an authorized
professional immediately for replacement.
4. Do not charge up the robot lawn mower in a damp location. Do not charge up
the robot lawn mower at temperatures above 40°C or below 5°C.
5. Keep the robot lawn mower and the power supply unit (13) away from water,
sources of heat and chemicals. Keep the cable of the power supply unit (13)
away from sharp edges in order to prevent damage.
6. Connect the power supply unit (13) to the charging station (19). (Fig. 5c)
To charge up the rechargeable battery for the robot lawn mower straight away
while you are still doing the installation work, first switch on the robot
lawn mower with the main switch (7) and place the robot lawn mower in the
charging station (19).
· ,,Boundary cut” mode or ,,Spot mowing” mode
was started outside the set work window and has been completed by the robot
lawn mower. In these cases the robot lawn mower automatically runs along the
perimeter wire (18) until it reaches the charging station (19).
When the robot lawn mower wants to return to the charging station (19), it
will first look for the perimeter wire (18) and then move along the perimeter
wire (18) in counter-clockwise direction. The LED indicator (21) on the
charging station (19) lights up red while charging of the rechargeable battery
is in progress. When the LED indicator (21) on the charging station (19) turns
to green, this indicates that the rechargeable battery is fully charged. Once
it has been fully charged, the robot lawn mower resumes operation or remains
in the charging station until the next work time window (19). If there is an
obstacle on the perimeter wire (18) during the trip back to the charging
station (19), the robot lawn mower will come to a stop in front of the
obstacle after several attempts and will not be able to get back to the
charging station (19). Remove all obstacles on the perimeter wire (18). If the
temperature of the rechargeable battery exceeds 45°C, charging will stop in
order to prevent damage to the rechargeable battery. Charging resumes
automatically once the temperature has dropped again. If the temperature of
the controller of the robot lawn mower exceeds 65°C, the robot lawn mower will
return to the charging station (19). Operation resumes in accordance with the
settings once the temperature has dropped again. If the rechargeable battery
becomes empty before the robot lawn mower has returned to the charging station
(19), it will not be possible for the robot lawn mower to start up again.
Bring the robot lawn mower back to the charging station (19) and leave the
main switch (7) switched on. The robot lawn mower will be charged up
automatically.
5.4.4 Information about charging
The robot lawn mower returns to the charging sta-
tion (19) in each of the following situations:
· You send the robot lawn mower back manu-
ally.
· The battery charge level drops below 30%. · The end of the daily work time
has been
reached.
· The rain sensor has tripped. · The robot lawn mower has become overhea-
ted.
5.5 Perimeter wire IMPORTANT! Severed perimeter wires and consequential
damages are not covered by the warranty!
5.5.1 Laying the perimeter wire The perimeter wire (18) can be laid both on
the ground and in the ground. The fastening pegs (14) can break when hammered
in if the ground is hard or dry. Water the lawn before installing the
perimeter wire if the ground is very dry.

Installation on the ground
Lay the perimeter wire (18) securely on the ground and fasten it with the
supplied fastening pegs (14) if you do not intend to scarify or aerate the
lawn any time later. You can still adjust the position of the perimeter wire
again during the first few weeks of using the robot lawn mower. After a
certain time, however, the perimeter wire will become overgrown with grass and
no longer visible. Install the perimeter wire with a maximum distance of 1 m
between fastening pegs (14). Reduce the distance between the fastening pegs on
uneven areas of the lawn. Avoid situations in which the wire is not actually
on the ground. Make sure that the perimeter wire cannot be severed by the
robot lawn mower.
· Installation in the ground
Bury the perimeter wire in the ground at a depth of up to 5 cm. This will
prevent the perimeter wire (18) getting damaged during scarifying or aeration,
for example.
basis of the height divided by the distance. (Fig. 6c)
Example: a/b = 35 cm/100 cm = 35%
5.5.6 Installation of the perimeter wire on gradients
The robot lawn mower can slip on gradients, especially if the grass is wet,
and run over the perimeter wire (18) as a result. It is therefore
recommendable to pay attention to the following points (Fig. 6d):
· In the area at the top of a slope, the perimeter
wire (18) should not be installed on gradients over 35%. Make sure that a
distance of 30 cm from obstacles and the edges of the lawn is maintained.
· In the area at the bottom of a slope, the
perimeter wire (18) should not be installed on gradients over 17%. Make sure
that a distance of 40 cm from obstacles and the edges of the lawn is
maintained.
Important! Keep a reserve of 1 m of wire at the rear end of the charging
station so that you can make corrections at a later time.
5.5.2 Narrow points If the lawn has a narrow point, your robot lawn mower will
be able to operate there as long as the corridor has a width of at least 1.4 m
(80 cm between the perimeter wires) and a maximum length of 8 m. (Fig. 3).
5.5.7 Driveways and paved paths
· Cordon off raised pathways, areas surfaced
with gravel or containing bark mulch, lower
lying beds or other similar areas. Lay the peri-
meter wire (18) at a distance of at least 30 cm
away. (Fig. 6e and 6g)
· Paths which are flush with the turf do not
need to be cordoned off, because the robot
lawn mower can simply run over them. You
can also lay the perimeter wire (18) over
paths. (Fig. 6f and 6g)
5.5.3 Distance to the garden perimeter When the robot lawn mower approaches a
perimeter wire (18), the perimeter wire is detected by the sensors in the
front of the robot lawn mower. Before the robot lawn mower turns about,
however, it runs over the perimeter wire (18) by up to 30 cm. Please bear this
in mind when planning your mowing area. (Fig. 6a)
5.5.4 Laying the wire in corners Avoid laying the perimeter wire (18) at a
rightangle (90°) in corners. To make sure that the robot lawn mower does not
run too far beyond the perimeter wire (18), lay the perimeter wire (18) as
shown in Fig. 6b.
5.5.5 Calculating the gradient of the lawn The robot lawn mower can cope with
gradients of up to 35%. You therefore need to avoid steeper gradients. The
gradient can be determined on the
5.5.8 Perimeter islands
To protect obstacles in the mowing area, create
perimeter islands. This will enable collisions with
delicate objects, garden ponds, trees, furniture,
flower beds, etc., to be avoided. (Fig. 6h and 6i)
· Roll out the perimeter wire (18) from the
edges to the objects you want to protect.
· Secure the perimeter wire (18) with fastening
pegs (14) in a clockwise direction around the
object you want to protect.
· Completely enclose the perimeter islands and
then run the perimeter wire (18) back to the
point at which you left the edge of the lawn.
· Perimeter islands need to be at least 0.8 m
apart. Alternatively, combine the objects to
make them into a joint perimeter island. (Fig.
6h)
· The perimeter wires (18) to and from the pe-
rimeter island should be laid parallel and very
close to one another. – Caution! Perimeter
– 38 –
Anl_FREELEXO_LCD_BT_plus_SPK13.indb 38

GB
wires (18) must not cross over! – You should therefore fasten both the
parallel perimeter wires (18) to the ground together using the same fastening
peg (14). (Fig. 6i)
· The robot lawn mower will run over the two
parallel perimeter wires (18) in the mowing area, but the robot lawn mower
will stop where single perimeter wires (18) are laid.
5.5.9 Obstacles
· Obstacles with a height over 10 cm
(Fig. 6j) Solid obstacles which are over 10 cm in height, e.g. trees, walls,
fences, garden furniture, etc., are detected by the collision sensors. If the
robot lawn mower collides with an obstacle, it will stop, switch off the mower
unit, reverse and turn so that it can continue mowing in the other direction.
Soft, unstable and valuable obstacles need to be protected by a perimeter wire
island.
· Stones and low obstacles
Stones, rocks and low obstacles of less than 10 cm in the mowing area need to
be protected, because otherwise the robot lawn mower could run over them. If
not, this could result in the robot lawn mower getting damaged or blocked.
· Trees (Fig. 6k)
The robot lawn mower treats trees as obstacles. However, where any tree roots
project above the ground to a height of less than 10 cm, the area in which
they are located needs to be protected. This will prevent damage to the roots
and to the robot lawn mower. Make sure that the minimum distance between the
perimeter wire (18) and the obstacle is 30 cm.
5.5.10 Main area and secondary area (Fig. 6l) A secondary area (B) designates
a work area which is not directly connected to the main area (A), e.g. via a
stretch of lawn or a path. To create a separate secondary area (B) lay the
perimeter wire (18) from the main area (A) to the secondary area (B) and back
again. The perimeter wire (18) to and from the secondary area (B) should be
laid such that the return run is parallel and very close to the forward run. –
Caution! Perimeter wires (18) must not cross over each other! – You should
therefore fasten the parallel perimeter wires (18) to the ground jointly using
the same fastening pegs (14). To be able to mow the secondary area (B) you
must carry the robot lawn mower by hand into the secondary area (B). Start the
required mowing
program and select “Secondary area” in the submenu (see ,,Settings of the
robot lawn mower”). When the robot lawn mower is in the secondary area (B) it
will not try to follow the perimeter wire (18) towards the charging station
(19) if the battery charge level is low.
5.6 Connecting the charging station Finish laying the complete perimeter wire
(18) before you connect it to the charging station. Keep an extra length of 1
m of perimeter wire (18) at each end so that you can make further adjustments
at a later time. Using a wire stripper, remove a length of 10 to 15 mm of the
insulation at the ends of the perimeter wire (18) for connecting to the
charging station (19). Pull out the power plug before you connect the
perimeter wire (18) to the charging station (19). The perimeter wire (18) laid
to the front end of the charging station (19) must be run to the back via the
cable holders on the underside of the charging station (19). Connect this
perimeter wire (18) to the connection on the left (black). Then pass the rear
perimeter wire (18) through the hole (stress-relief) in the connection area
and connect it to the connection on the right (red) (Fig. 7a).
Important! Perimeter wires (18) must not cross over!
Then connect the power supply. The LED indicator (21) on the charging station
(19) should light up green and stay on permanently. If the LED does not light
up, check the connections first. If the LED lights up green but not
permanently, read the “Indicators on the charging station and troubleshooting”
table at the end of these operating instructions.

come complete with the battery charger (Fig. 13a/Item B). 1. Check that your
mains voltage is the same as
that marked on the rating plate of the battery charger. Insert the power plug
of the charger (B) into the socket outlet. The green LED will then begin to
flash. 2. Insert the rechargeable battery (A) into the battery charger (B)
(Fig. 13a). 3. In the section entitled ,,Charger indicator” you will find a
table with an explanation of the LED indicator on the charger.
The rechargeable battery can become a little warm during the charging. This is
normal.
If the battery pack fails to charge, check:
· whether there is voltage at the socket outlet · whether there is good
contact at the charging
contacts
If the battery pack still fails to charge, send
· the charger · and the battery pack
to our customer service center.
1 LED flashes: The battery is empty, recharge the battery.
All LEDs blink: The battery temperature is too low. Remove the battery from
the equipment, keep it at room temperature for one day. If the fault reoccurs,
this means that the rechargeable battery has undergone exhaustive discharge
and is defective. Remove the battery from the equipment. Never use or charge a
defective battery.
To ensure that items are properly packaged and delivered when you send them to
us, please contact our customer service or the point of sale at which the

Use the navigation buttons (55) to move to the day of the week for which you
want to make the settings. In normal operating mode, the robot lawn mower will
automatically begin to mow your lawn at the set time on the respective day. It
is recommended to base the mowing time setting on 8 hours per day for 500 m²
as a guideline. The selected working time may need to be adapted to take
account of the garden’s size and complexity.
· Zone
Where gardens have lots of angles, the robot lawn mower may have problems
reaching every part of the lawn and mowing it completely. In this case you can
select several starting points on the perimeter wire (18). This will enable
the robot lawn mower to get to even those parts of your garden that are
difficult to reach. The robot lawn mower will run the selected distance along
the perimeter wire (18) and then start mowing in this part of the garden (Fig.
6m). Use the navigation buttons (55) to go to the point that you wish to
change and enter the distance and frequency accordingly. The charging station
(19) is automatically defined as starting point 1. The two other starting
points can be selected as you wish. For this you must measure the distance
between the charging station (19) and the starting
point in clockwise direction along the perimeter wire (18). With the frequency
setting you decide how often the robot lawn mower starts its work from the
charging station (19) or from the respective starting points.
· Boundary cut
For a tidy lawn edge you can activate the ,,Edge mowing” setting. You can also
set the lawn mowing frequency, i.e. the rhythm in which you want the edge of
the lawn to be mowed at the beginning of the work window. In the standard
setting the robot lawn mower will begin work on all 7 work days by first
mowing along the entire perimeter wire.
· Error log
From here you will be informed about the latest error messages concerning your
robot lawn mower.
· Rain sensor
The rain sensor (5) can be programmed using this setting. The default factory
setting for the sensor is “On”. You can activate or deactivate the rain sensor
(5) and set its delay time. The delay time defines how long the robot lawn
mower continues to remain in the charging station (19) after the rain sensor
(5) has dried.
· Leaving the station
You can set how far and where the robot lawn mower travels when it reverses
out of the charging station (19). First the robot lawn mower reverses the set
distance before it turns into the area to be mowed or towards its starting
point. Make sure that the set reversing distance does not cause the robot lawn
mower to leave the area to be mowed.
· General
– PIN code: You can replace the default PIN for the robot lawn mower with your
own choice of PIN. To do so, proceed as described in the chapter “Locking
mechanism / PIN”. Important! Make a note of the new PIN. – Date & time: Use

the lawn, the mower will switch to normal ope-
rating mode with the set time schedule.
· Boundary cut
Place the robot lawn mower close to the peri-
meter wire (18) or start the mower while it is in
the charging station (19). With its mower unit
activated, the robot lawn mower will follow
the perimeter wire (18) in counter-clockwise
direction until it reaches the rear of the char-
ging station (19). Provided no work window is
active, the robot lawn mower will then return
to the charging station (19).
· Spot mowing
It may happen that your robot lawn mower
fails to mow some spots sufficiently. Place the
robot lawn mower at the spot in question and
start the mower. The robot lawn mower will
begin to mow the lawn in a spiral pattern until
it collides with an obstacle or the perimeter
wire (18). Provided no work window is active,
the robot lawn mower will then return to the
charging station (19).

aggressive to the plastic parts in the equipment. Ensure that no water can get
into the interior of the equipment.
· For best results, clean the robot lawn mower
with a brush or rag.
· Check the freedom of movement of the bla-
des (10) and the blade plate (11)
· Use cleaning product for metal or very fine
abrasive paper to clean the charging contacts
on the robot lawn mower (1) and the charging
station (19). Clean them in order ensure effici-
ent charging.
7.2 Maintenance
· Worn or damaged blades (10) and their fas-
tening screws must always be replaced as a
set.
· Replace excessively worn or damaged parts
immediately.
· In order to ensure that you enjoy the equip-
ment for many years to come, all screwed
parts, as well as the wheels and axles, should
be cleaned and lubricated.
· Keeping your robot lawn mower in good
condition not only ensures a long lifespan
and high performance, but also enables the
equipment to thoroughly cut your grass with
minimal effort.
· The blades (10) are subject to more wear and
tear than any other component. Therefore,
routinely check the condition of the blades
(10) and make sure that they are tightly fas-
tened. An excessively vibrating robot lawn
mower can indicate that the blades (10) are
damaged or have become deformed from
striking an object. If the blades (10) are worn
or damaged, they must be replaced immedia-
tely.
· Check the appearance of the cut lawn at re-
gular intervals. The grass will not be cleanly
cut if the blades are not sharp. This can result
in the surface of the lawn drying out easily
and turning brown. It is important therefore to
change the blades regularly in order to obtain
a clean and straight cut.
· Check the bottom of the robot lawn mower
for dirt at regular intervals. Clean your robot
lawn mower regularly. Remove heavy soiling
immediately.
· Heavy soiling of the robot lawn mower is
possible in the first weeks of using it for the
first time after a conventional law mower had
previously been used. In these first few weeks
you should check the bottom of your robot
lawn mower more often.
· Shorten the lawn only in small steps in order
to prevent heavy soiling.
· There are no other parts inside the equipment
which require maintenance.
