5.1 How does my Landroid® know what to mow?
Landroid® chooses its direction at random. It will make sure your entire lawn is evenly mowed without leaving unattractive mowing paths (See Fig. A).
A
Owner’s Manual EN
5.2 How does my Landroid® know where to go?
DD
Your Landroid® is made to work on its own. Landroid® 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, drawback, and turn around when it bumps into something blocking its path. Landroid ground to prevent an accident.
®
will also automatically stop its blade turning disc from rotating if it is lifted off the
A. Finding the Charging Base
When your Landroid back to its Charging Base. Landroid
®
needs to recharge, it will stop mowing and follow the boundary wire in an anti-clockwise direction
®
is pre-programmed to mow the grass near the boundary wire once a week. By default, Landroid® will mow near the boundary wire every Monday of its system time. If you don’t want to enable boundary cut, deactivate it via your smartphone or by the control panel in “Work Time ­Customize work time - Monday”.
B. Rain sensors
Landroid® is equipped with a rain sensor which detects rain and tells Landroid® to stop mowing and follow the boundary wire back to its charging base (See Fig. B).
Landroid default Delay time is 180mins. The delay time setting can be changed via Landroid start delay”. When the rain sensors are wet, Landroid
®
will resume mowing after passing the Delay Time. The
®
APP or by the control panel in “General settings - Rain
®
returns to its charging base. When the rain sensors are dry, Landroid® will begin the delay time countdown or return to mowing (depending on the saved settings). 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. NOTE: If the delay time is set to 0, Landroid® will continue mowing.
B
C. Sensing the boundary wire
Landroid® always obeys the border set by the boundary wire and uses sensors at its front to detect it. (See Fig. C)

cutting blade will last up to 2 months when it is programmed to mow every day. 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 Landroid
®
. Spare blades are also available at
your nearest WORX retailer.
A. Replace the Blades
After some time, usually every season, your Landroid
®
’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 Landroid Before attempting to replace your Landroid

9.4 Winter hibernation
Your Landroid® will live longer and healthier if it is allowed to hibernate. So even though it is troublesome, we recommend storing your Landroid Before you prepare your Landroid
• Thoroughly clean your Landroid
• Fully charge the battery and remove it from Landroid
• Turn the power off
To maximize the battery life, fully charge the battery and remove it from Landroid
WARNING: Protect the underside of Landroid® from water. NEVER store Landroid® 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 Landroid clean. We recommend using a fine grade emery cloth to clean the contacts. Using the app, make sure the date and time are correct and send Landroid
®
in your shed or garage during the winter.
®
back to what it loves doing: mowing.
®
for winter hibernation, we recommend you:
®
®
back to work after winter hibernation, make sure the charging strips and contact pins are
®
®
before storage during winter.
9.5 Replacing the battery
WARNING: Power off before attempting any
adjustment, replacement or repair.
Open the battery pack protection cover. Press down the battery pack release button to remove the battery pack from Landroid
®
. (See Fig. Q) Insert a new and fully charged battery pack into the battery port. A simple push and slight pressure will be sufficient until a click is heard. Check to see if the battery is fully secured.
