Introduction
Thank you for choosing the vidaXL Robotic Lawnmower Garage. This manual provides essential information for the proper assembly, installation, and maintenance of your new robotic lawnmower shelter. Designed to protect your automatic lawnmower from various weather conditions, this garage ensures its longevity and optimal performance.
Setup and Installation
Before beginning assembly, ensure all components are present and undamaged. Assembly is required for this product.
Package Contents:
- PC (Polycarbonate) Ceiling Plates
- Polypropylene and Fiberglass Supports
- Metallic Supports
- Aluminum Strips
- Mounting Screws
- 4 Galvanized Ground Anchors
Assembly Instructions:
- Carefully unpack all components and lay them out on a clean, flat surface.
- Attach the PC ceiling plates to the support structure using the provided mounting screws. Ensure all connections are secure.
- Assemble the metallic and polypropylene/fiberglass supports according to the diagram (refer to Figure 1 for visual guidance on structure).
- Once the main structure is assembled, choose a suitable flat surface for installation. This can be grass, a paved area, or a cement base.
- Position the robotic lawnmower garage in the desired location, ensuring adequate space for your robotic lawnmower to enter and exit freely.
- Use the 4 galvanized ground anchors to secure the garage firmly to the ground. This will prevent movement due to wind or other external factors.
Operation
The vidaXL Robotic Lawnmower Garage is designed to provide passive protection for your robotic lawnmower. Once installed, ensure that your robotic lawnmower's charging station and navigation system are positioned correctly to allow the mower to enter and exit the garage without obstruction.
The inclined roof design facilitates efficient drainage of rainwater and snow, keeping the interior dry and protecting your mower from the elements.
Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of your robotic lawnmower garage, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the PC ceiling plates and support structure with a soft cloth and mild soap solution. Rinse thoroughly with water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the materials.
- Inspection: Regularly check all mounting screws and ground anchors to ensure they remain tight and secure. Re-tighten if necessary.
- Drainage: Ensure the area around the garage is clear of debris to allow for proper water and snow drainage from the inclined roof.
- Material Care: The durable PC sheets, metallic, and polypropylene/fiberglass supports are designed for long-term outdoor use. No special treatment is typically required beyond regular cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Most issues related to the robotic lawnmower garage are minor and can be resolved easily:
- Garage Instability: If the garage feels wobbly or loose, check that all 4 galvanized ground anchors are fully inserted and secure. Ensure the mounting screws for the structure are tightened.
- Water Accumulation: If water pools on or around the garage, verify that the inclined roof is free of debris and that the ground beneath allows for proper drainage. Adjust the garage's position if necessary to improve runoff.
- Robot Mower Obstruction: If your robotic lawnmower has difficulty entering or exiting the garage, check for any obstacles in its path. Ensure the garage is aligned correctly with the mower's charging station and boundary wires.
