Understanding Your LandxcapeTM

Congratulations on your new purchase of LandxcapeTM and welcome to the care- free life of automatic mowing. In the following, we want to help you to better understand how your LandxcapeTM thinks.

• 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).

• How does my LandxcapeTM know where to go?
  Your LandxcapeTM is made to work on its own. LandxcapeTM knows when it needs to go to its charging base 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 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 Base
    When your LandxcapeTM needs to recharge, it will stop mowing and follow the boundary wire in an anti-clockwise direction back to its charging base. LandxcapeTM is pre-programmed to mow the grass near the boundary wire twice a week. By default, LandxcapeTM will mow near the boundary wire every Monday and Friday after it is powered on. If you don’t want to enable boundary cut, deactivate it via your smartphone (only for specific model, please check Technical Data & Declaration of Conformity).

  • B. Rain sensors(only for specific model, please check Technical Data & Declaration of Conformity)
    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 base (See Fig. B). LandxcapeTM will resume mowing after passing the delay time. The default delay time is 180mins. The delay time setting can be changed via LandxcapeTM APP (only for specific model, please check Technical Data & Declaration of Conformity). When the rain sensors are wet, LandxcapeTM returns to its charging base. When the rain sensors are dry, LandxcapeTM 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. Or you can activate or deactivate the rain delay by using mobile App (only for specific model, please check Technical Data & Declaration of Conformity).

  • C. Sensing the boundary wire
    LandxcapeTM 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 LandxcapeTM senses something is wrong, it will display a fault message on the display. For information on these messages, refer to the Error Messages. LandxcapeTM will turn off if it does not receive any input from the user within 20 minutes.
    To resume:

  • Press , then press .

  • Now LandxcapeTM will begin to mow!

How efficiently will my LandxcapeTM mow the grass?
Mowing times are different for every lawn depending on the factors mentioned below. Gradually adjust the time you allow LandxcapeTM to mow each day until you find the most suitable setting.
Your LandxcapeTM 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, LandxcapeTM uses 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. LandxcapeTM’s cutting height can be adjusted (refer to the Technical Data& Declaration of Conformity for specific cutting height range). Before starting your LandxcapeTM for the first time, you should cut the grass to the height no more than 9 cm with your manual lawnmower. Then, set the cutting height of your LandxcapeTM to its maximum setting for its first time mowing. (See Fig. F) Your LandxcapeTM will cut best in dry weather.It is also feasible to let your LandxcapeTM work on rainy days as long as the lawn is solid. Check and clean your mower regularly.

Your LandxcapeTM is afraid of lightning storms. In case of a lightning storm, protect LandxcapeTM by unplugging the charging base, disconnecting the boundary wire, and making sure LandxcapeTM is not allowed to charge.

Your LandxcapeTM loves mowing grass and requires the cutting blades to be kept in good condition to cut at its best. LandxcapeTM can do most things by itself, but will sometimes need your help to prevent damage to itself.

• Never let LandxcapeTM travel over gravel.
• Remove or prevent access to obstacles that LandxcapeTM could accidentally climb on and damage its blade turning disc.
• Remove all debris and foreign objects from your lawn.

Boundary Wire Basics

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 LandxcapeTM, 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 LandxcapeTM will become confused by extra bends or coils of boundary wire that are not part of its mowing area (See Fig. H). 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 base so it can be connected and still remain buried.

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 LandxcapeTM follow and check the path by pressing and . This allows your LandxcapeTM to adjust to its new environment. . While observing LandxcapeTM you can easily make alterations to the boundary wire to ensure LandxcapeTM’s trouble-free tracking when locating the charging station. Confirm that LandxcapeTM docks in the charging station successfully, and bury the wire if desired.

Joining the boundary wire
If you want to extend and splice the boundary wire, use a connector. (only for specific models, please check Technical Data & Declaration of Conformity). 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. I) Press the connector together by using a pair of pliers. (See Fig. J1, J2)
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 LandxcapeTM.

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.
LandxcapeTM 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. L). Each blade of your LandxcapeTM 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 LandxcapeTM. Spare blades are also available at your nearest LandxcapeTM retailer.

A. Replace the Blades
After some time, usually every season, your LandxcapeTM’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 with your LandxcapeTM. Before attempting to replace your LandxcapeTM’s blades, turn the power off and put on protective gloves and follow these steps:

1. Gently flip LandxcapeTM over.
2. Remove the battery cover and remove the battery.
3. Take the screws off the blades with a screwdriver. (See Fig. M)
4. Firmly screw on the new blades.
5. 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.

Keep it clean
WARNING: Before cleaning, turn your LandxcapeTM OFF. Put on protective gloves before cleaning the blade turning disc and do not rinse or flush with water.

• A. Cleaning the body
  Your LandxcapeTM will live a much happier and longer life if it is cleaned regularly. Although, since your LandxcapeTM 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 LandxcapeTM. 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. N). Lastly, remove all build up of grass clippings and debris.

• B. Cleaning the Underside
  Again, it is important that you power LandxcapeTM OFF and wear protective gloves before touching the blade turning disc. First, flip your LandxcapeTM 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 LandxcapeTM with running water. Component damage can occur. (See Fig. O1, O2) 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 a crack in the blade disc. Even the tiniest crack can decrease your LandxcapeTM’s mowing output.

• C. Clean the contact pins and the charging strips
  Clean the contact pins located on the charging base and the charging strips located on LandxcapeTM using a cloth. Remove any built up grass clippings or debris around the contact pins and charge strips periodically to ensure LandxcapeTM successfully charges each time.

Battery life
The heart of LandxcapeTM is 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 LandxcapeTM operation temperature is between 0-550C.
The life-span of LandxcapeTM’s battery depends on various factors, such as:

• The length of the mowing season in your region
• Amount of hours LandxcapeTM mows per day
• Battery maintenance during storage

LandxcapeTM can be charged manually without the boundary wire.

1. Connect the charging base to a suitable power supply. The green light on the charging base will turn on.
2. Manually dock LandxcapeTM into the charging base while LandxcapeTM is powered off. (See Fig. P)
3. The green light on the charging base will be flashing. LandxcapeTM will begin to charge.

Winter hibernation
Your LandxcapeTM will live longer and healthier if it is allowed to hibernate. So even though it is troublesome, we recommend storing your LandxcapeTM in your shed or garage during the winter. Before you prepare your LandxcapeTM for winter hibernation, we recommend you:

• Thoroughly clean your LandxcapeTM
• Fully charge the battery and remove it from LandxcapeTM
• Turn power off

To maximize the battery life, fully charge the battery and remove it from LandxcapeTM before storage during winter.

WARNING: Protect the underside of LandxcapeTM from water. NEVER store LandxcapeTM upside down outdoors. The boundary wire can be left in the ground but its ends should be protected, such as placed in a tin can with grease. If the charging base is left outside for the winter, leave the boundary wire connected.
NOTE: When bringing LandxcapeTM back to work after winter hibernation, make sure the charging strips and contact pins are clean. We recommend using a fine grade emery cloth to clean the contacts.

Replacing the battery
WARNING: Power off before attempting any adjustment, replacement or repair.
Before replacing the blades, turn your LandxcapeTM OFF and put on protective gloves.
If you need to replace the battery, follow these steps:

1. Gently turn your LandxcapeTM upside down.

2. Remove the screws on the battery cover. Remove the battery cover. (See Fig. Q1)

3. Lift out the old battery carefully. Press the latch and release the connectors. (See Fig. Q2)
   NOTE: Do not pull by the cables. Hold the connectors and release the latch.

4. Connect a new original battery by attaching the connectors until they click into position. (See Fig. Q3, Q4)

5. Fit the battery as shown. (See Fig. Q5) Place the cover back in its position and tighten the screws.
