5.1 Charging Station Placement

5.2 Boundary Wire Installation
The boundary wire defines the mowing area. Lay the wire around the perimeter of your lawn, securing it with the provided pegs. Maintain a distance of approximately 30 cm from obstacles such as walls, fences, and flowerbeds. Ensure the wire forms a continuous loop back to the charging station.
5.3 Initial Charging
Connect the power adapter to the charging station and a power outlet. Place the mower onto the charging station, ensuring the charging contacts align. The mower will begin charging automatically. Allow for a full charge before first use (approximately 2-3 hours).
6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Starting the Mower
Insert the safety key. Press the "START" button on the control panel. The mower will begin its mowing cycle according to the programmed schedule or default settings.
6.2 Scheduling
Use the control panel to set specific mowing times and days. Refer to the on-screen menu for detailed scheduling options.
6.3 Stopping the Mower
Press the large red "STOP" button on top of the mower. The blades will immediately cease rotation, and the mower will stop moving. To resume, press "START" again.
6.4 Returning to Charging Station
The mower will automatically return to its charging station when its battery is low or when its mowing cycle is complete. You can also manually send it back via the control panel.
7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your mower. Always turn off the mower and remove the safety key before any maintenance.
7.1 Blade Replacement
Inspect blades regularly for wear and damage. Replace all blades and screws simultaneously for balanced cutting. Use only genuine Anthbot replacement blades. Wear protective gloves during replacement.
