Understanding Your LandxcapeTM
Congratulations on your new purchase of Landxcape and welcome to the care-free
life of automatic mowing. In the following, we want to help you to better
understand how your Landxcape TM thinks. 4.1 How does my LandxcapeTM know what to mow?
LandxcapeTM chooses its direction at random. It will make sure your entire
lawn is evenly mowed without leaving unattractive mowing paths (See Fig. A).
4.2 How does my Landxcapeknow TMwhere to go?
Your LandxcapeTM knows when it needs to go to its charging station to charge,
can sense when it is raining, can stop itself if it senses a problem, and
knows to stop, draw back, and turn around when it bumps into something
blocking its path. LandxcapeTM is made to work on its own. Landxcape TM will
also automatically stop its blade turning disc from rotating if it is lifted
off the ground to prevent an accident.
A. Finding the Charging station
When your LandxcapeTM needs to recharge, it will stop mowing and follow the
boundary wire in an anti-clockwise direction back to its charging station.
B. Rain sensors
LandxcapeTM is equipped with a rain sensor which detects rain and tells
LandxcapeTM to stop mowing and follow the boundary wire back to its charging
station (See Fig. B). LandxcapeTM will resume mowing after passing the delay
time. The default delay time is 180mins.
When the rain sensors are wet, Landxcape returns to its charging base. When
the rain sensors are dry, Landxcape TM will begin the delay time countdown. If
you want to exit from the rain delay, dry the sensor area, and perform a power
cycle by operating the on/off key. After the power cycle has been performed,
you can operate again.
C. Sensing the boundary wire
Landxcape TM always obeys the border set by the boundary wire and uses sensors
at its front to detect it. (See Fig. C)
D. Starting and stopping while mowing (See Fig. D, E1, E2)
To start mowing, press the on/off key and input the PIN code. Press , then
press . If you would like LandxcapeTM to stop mowing, simply press the STOP
button on top of the mower.
If Landxcape TM senses something is wrong, it will display a fault message on
the display. For information on these messages, refer to “9.Error
Messages”. Landxcape TM will turn off if it does not receive any input from
the user within 20 minutes.
To resume:
- Press , then press
- Now Landxcape TM will begin to mow!

4.4 How efficiently will my Landxcape TM mow the grass?
Mowing times are different for every lawn depending on the factors mentioned
below. Gradually adjust the time you allow Landxcape TM to mow each day until
you find the most suitable setting.
Your Landxcape TM is capable of mowing areas of different sizes, although this
depends on various factors, such as:
- Species of grass in your lawn and its growth rate
- Sharpness of the cutting blades
- Humidity
- Surrounding temperature
- Amount of obstacles in your Lawn
Unlike most other mowers, Landxcape TMuses a side charging system, which is
able to cut the surrounding grass as much as possible. The holes on the bottom
of the charging base allow the grass to grow through the base to help disguise
it and create an elegant appearance.
Landxcape TM ’s cutting height can be adjusted. Before starting your TM
Landxcape for the first time, you should cut the grass to the height no more
than 6 cm with your manual lawnmower. Then, set the cutting height of your
Landxcape TM to its maximum setting (6 cm) for its first time mowing. (See
Fig. F) Your Landxcape TM will cut best in dry weather.It is also feasible to
let your Landxcape TM work on rainy days as long as the lawn is solid. Check
and clean your mower regularly.
Your Landxcape TM is afraid of lightning storms. In case of a lightning storm,
protect Landxcape TM by unplugging the charging station, disconnecting the
boundary wire, and making sure Landxcape TM is not allowed to charge.
Your Landxcape TM loves mowing grass and requires the cutting blades to be
kept in good condition to cut at its best. Landxcape TM can do most things by
itself, but will sometimes need your help to prevent damage to itself.
- Never let Landxcape TM travel over gravel.
- Remove or prevent access to obstacles that Landxcape TM could accidentally climb on and damage its blade turning disc.
- Remove all debris and foreign objects from your lawn.
Boundary Wire Basics
5.1. Pegging the Boundary Wire
Use the boundary wire distance gauge to set the correct distance between the
wire and the border of your lawn (more than 26cm).This is the recommended
distance. The provided distance gauge ensures proper installation.
If your neighbor also uses a Landxcape TM , keep a spacing of at least 1 metre
between your boundary wire and your neighbor’s.
The boundary wire must outline the intended mowing area exactly. Your
Landxcape TM will become confused by extra bends or coils of boundary wire
that are not part of its mowing area (See Fig.
G). If there is excess boundary wire after the mowing area has been outlined,
cut it off and store this additional wire in a separate location.
It is important to leave the necessary length where it connects to the
charging station so it can be connected and still remain buried.
5.2 Burying the Boundary Wire
If you are planning to bury the boundary wire, it is recommended to first peg
it down. This allows you to easily change the layout if necessary before
burying the wire. When the boundary wire installation is complete, have
Landxcape TM follow and check the path by pressing and . This allows your
Landxcape TM to adjust to its new environment. . While observing Landxcape TM
ou can easily make alterations to the boundary wire to ensure Landxcape ‘s
trouble-free tracking when locating the charging station. Confirm that
Landxcape TM docks in the charging station successfully, and bury the wire if
desired.
5.3 Joining the boundary wire
If you want to extend and splice the boundary wire, use a connector.
The connector is waterproof and provides optimal connection.
Insert both wire ends in any two of the three holes of the connector.
Insert the wires fully until both wire ends are visible on the other side of
the connector. (See Fig. H) Press the connector together by using a pair of
pliers. (See Fig. I1, I2)
WARNING! It is not recommended to simply splice the boundary wire with
insulating tape or use a screw terminal block for connection. A broken circuit
may occur after a period of time as soil moisture can oxidize the wire.

Maintenance
Your LandxcapeTM works hard and needs to be cleaned and checked from time to
time. Some parts will require replacement as they become worn. Never use your
LandxcapeTM with defective main switch.
Switch off the machine before carrying out any service or maintenance.
Here’s how to take care of your Landxcape TM.
7.1 Keep it sharp
WARNING : Before cleaning, adjusting, or replacing the blades, turn your
LandxcapeTM OFF and put on protective gloves.
WARNING : When fitting new blades, make sure you replace ALL the blades.
Always use new screws when fitting blades. This is important to ensure blade
retention and balance the blade turning disc. Failure to use new screws could
cause serious injury.
Landxcape TM does not cut grass like other mowers. Its cutting blades are
razor sharp on 2 edges and rotate in both directions for maximum cutting
capacity (See Fig. K). Each blade of your Landxcape TM has 2 cutting edges.
The blade turning disc will make forward and reverse rotation at random to use
both cutting edges and minimize the frequency of replacing the blades. Each
cutting blade will last up to 2 months when it is programmed to mow everyday.
Always check to see if the blades are chipped or damaged and replace them if
they are. When the cutting blades are dull and worn out, they should be
replaced with the spare blades provided with your Landxcape TM . Spare blades
are also available at your nearest Landxcape TM retailer.
A. Replace the Blades
After some time, usually every season, your Landxcape TM ’s Blades will need
to be replaced. When replacing the blades, make sure to replace ALL of them at
the same time. You can replace them with one of the spare blade kits and extra
blade screws supplied ith your Landxcape TM . Before attempting to replace
your Landxcape TM ’s blades, turn the power off and put on protective gloves
and follow these steps:
- Gently flip Landxcape TM over.
- Remove the battery cover and remove the battery.
- Take the screws off the blades with a screwdriver. (See Fig. L)
- Firmly screw on the new blades.
- Refit the battery and the battery cover.
IMPORTANT : After screwing the blade to the blade disc, make sure the
blade is able to spin freely.
7.2 Keep it clean
WARNING : Before cleaning, turn your Landxcape TM OFF.
Put on protective gloves before cleaning the blade turning disc and do not
rinse or flush with water.
A. Cleaning the body
Your Landxcape TM will live a much happier and longer life if it is cleaned
regularly. Although, since your Landxcape TM is an electric machine, you will
need to take care when cleaning. DO NOT use a hose, high pressure washers and
do not pour running water on your Landxcape TM . It is best to use a spray
bottle filled with water.
When cleaning the machine body, use a soft brush or clean cloth and avoid
using solvents or polishes (See Fig. M). Lastly, remove all build up of grass
clippings and debris.
B. Cleaning the Underside
Again, it is important that you power Landxcape TM OFF and wear protective
gloves before touching the blade turning disc. First, flip your Landxcape TM
upside down to expose its underside. Here you will see the blade disc, the
chassis, and the front wheel and driving wheels. Clean everything thoroughly
with a soft brush or moist rag.
WARNING : NEVER clean the underside of Landxcape TM with running water.
Component damage can occur. (See Fig. N1, N2) Rotate the blade disc to ensure
it rotates freely. Check the blades spin freely around the fixing screws.
Remove any obstructions.
IMPORTANT : Remove any lodged debris so that it does not cause crack in
the blade disc. Even the tiniest crack can decrease your Landxcape TM ‘s
mowing output.
C. Clean the contact pins and the charging strips
Clean the contact pins located on the charging station and the charging strips
located on Landxcape TM using a cloth. Remove any built up grass clippings or
debris around the contact pins and chargestrips periodically to ensure
Landxcape TM successfully charges each time.
7.3 Battery life
The heart of Landxcapeis its 20V Li-Ion battery. For proper storage of the
battery, make sure it is fully charged and kept in a cool dry place.
NOTE: The recommended Landxcape TM operation temperature is between 0-55 TM C.
The life-span of Landxcape 0 ’s battery depends on various factors, such as:
- The length of the mowing season in your region
- Amount of hours Landxcape TM mows per day
- Battery maintenance during storage
Landxcape can be charged manually without the boundary wire.
-
