Functional description

This Robomower is an autonomous robot used to cut lawn grass. It will remain within an area designated by a boundary wire, start work following a programmed schedule, and return to its charging station as needed. The three sharp blades ensure clean cuts with minimal damage to the plant, leaving behind tiny snippets as natural fertilizer.

LWA= 67 dB(A) (K=0.35 dB(A))

The sound values have been determined according to noise test code given in EN 50636-2- 107, using the basic standards EN ISO 11203 :2009 and EN ISO 3744:2010.

The noise figures quoted are emission levels and are not necessarily safe working levels. Factors that influence the actual level of exposure of work-force include the characteristics of the work room, the other sources of noise, i.e. the number of machines and other adjacent processes and the length of time for which an operator is exposed to the noise. Also the permissible exposure level can vary from country. This information, however, will enable the user of the machine to make a better evaluation of the hazard and risk.

* Note 1: The recommended time per day stated in this specification is just for reference. It

depends on the condition of blades, the type of the grass being cut, the growth condition, humidity, and whether lawn area is flat. A more complex lawn with trees, flower beds, paths and slopes may require a longer work time.
