How the Honda Robotic Lawn mower works / Features
OVERVIEW

How the Honda Robotic Lawn mower works
Confi guring the system
The mowing area is determined by the boundary wire that emits a signal; when the lawn
mower detects the boundary, it turns and cuts the grass randomly. When the lawn mower’s
battery needs to be recharged, it returns to the docking station.
Transformer
The transformer must be installed in a covered
area protected from rain.
Docking station
Pegs
Boundary wire
Lay the boundary wire by securing it on the ground
with pegs, or burying it under the ground.
Features
Power cord
More
than
3.3 ft
(1m)
More
than
6.6 ft
(2m)
Robotic Lawn mower
Install the docking station with
appropriate boundary wire length. In
the case of this fi gure, there must be
more than 6.6 ft (2m) from the front of
the docking station and more than 3.3 ft
(1m) from the rear of the docking station.
For details, see “Checking conditions for
installation” (M page 12).
Mowing start points
You can designate the start points from which the Honda
Robotic Lawn mower will start mowing. Mowing start points
allow your lawn mower to reach other areas which are
diffi cult to access. Some mowing start points can be set by
laying a boundary wire, increasing effi ciency.
NOTE:
- You can confi gure the following start points for each
model: (M page 19)
HRM310: 3 start points
HRM520: 5 start points
4
Operation timer
The Honda Robotic Lawn
mower has multiple settings
for designating the day
and time the lawn mower
operates. You can confi gure
the lawn mower to run at
any time you desire.
Convenience
After confi guring the Honda
Robotic Lawn mower, it starts
and stops mowing without any
prompting. When the timed
program is complete or the
battery’s charge becomes low,
the lawn mower automatically
returns to its docking station and
recharges its internal battery.
How the Honda Robotic Lawn mower works / Features
Laying boundary wire
The boundary wire location determines the parameters of the mowing area, this area may
consist of multiple sections in which the lawn mower can operate. For mowing start point
setup and detailed information please see “4 MENU SETTINGS” (M page 25).
The work area must conform to the following conditions if it includes sloping areas.
• The lawn mower can operate on slopes of 24° (45%). Do not include slopes in the work area that are more than 24° (45%).
• Lay the boundary wire in locations that have a slope of less than 10° (17%).
• If the location in which you are laying the boundary wire has a slope that is steeper than 10° (17%), do the following:
- Do not lay the boundary wire laterally across a slope that is steeper than 10°.
- Lay the boundary wire laterally across a relatively fl at space, with a slope of less than 10°, that comes after the location where
the slope is more than 10° (17%). (Refer to the diagram below.)
* Laying the boundary wire where the slope is too steep has a bad effect on the lawn mower. This is because the lawn mower follows
along where the boundary wire has been laid.
Leave no more than 0.2 in (5 mm) of space between parts of the boundary
wire. Make sure that parts of the boundary wire do not overlap or cross.
Leave 11.8 in (30 cm)
to 19.7 in (50 cm) of
space between the
boundary wire and the
mowing area boundary.
Leave 3.3 ft (1m) of space
between the boundary
wire and dangerous areas
such as ponds or holes.
Leave 11.8 in (30 cm) to
19.7 in (50 cm) of space
between the boundary
wire and large objects.
Lay boundary wire
around objects that
you want the lawn
mower to avoid.
Incorrect Correct
More than
10° (17%)
Less than
10° (17%)
1 OVERVIEW
NOTE:
- Make sure to fi ll in “LAWN DIAGRAM” referring to the layout of boundary wire (M page 76).
Useful features
Seasonal timer (Mpage 29)
The growth speed of lawn depends on the
season. With this function, you can confi gure
the ratio of the mowing time for each season.
Safety
Blades on the lawn mower
automatically stop when:
- You lift the lawn mower.
- The lawn mower is on a surface
with a slope that is too steep.
- The lawn mower becomes
overturned.
Quiet operation
The motor and rotating blades
of the Honda Robotic Lawn
mower operate more quietly than
traditional engine lawn mowers.
Quiet timer (Mpage 30)
You can set the blade speed, wheel speed and
timer for operating the lawn mower quietly.
Spiral cutting (Mpage 36, 38)
With this function, the lawn mower can be
focused on mowing the area where the lawn is
not completely mown, or the growth speed of
the lawn is fast.
Edge cutting (Mpage 35, 38)
With this function, you can mow the unmown
area along the boundary wire.
