How Does It Work?

The mower works within the boundaries you have established and defined to a schedule and time(s) determined by you, that best suit you. When mower needs re-energising during its cutting cycle, it simply makes its own and unassisted way back to its docking station, charges itself and once sufficiently powered up returns to continue cutting until it requires recharging again or its scheduled cutting cycle complete.

You decide when, what days and what times you would like your Automower® to work to suit you, adjust the timer to whatever schedule you choose in the settings and then sit back, and let your mower do the rest! If you would like your mowing done when you get back from work, during the night whilst you sleep, on alternate days or only during the week whilst you are out, you can programme Automower® to do just that. It really is that easy and convenient. Don’t forget Automower® will even cut your grass in the wet when you simply would not venture out, or better still whilst you watch the football, go shopping or are away on holiday. A great way to save you time and money.

Automower® works on a unique and random cutting pattern, much like the same principle as sheep grazing do. This random, free movement pattern prevents track marks being caused by the mower repeatedly traversing in the same direction, along the same path, which is kinder to your lawn. It moves in a random pattern only making small cuts of fine clippings at a time. This produces not only a clean and even mow but also nourishes your lawn as it cuts and limits visible residue/grass clippings. The quiet, near silent operation means that you won’t disturb anyone around you whilst your mower cuts, unlike petrol powered machines.

Unlike conventional pedestrian and ride-on type mowers, Automower® uses 3 small, strong, carbon steel razor-sharp micro blades to cut grass, by effectively surgically manicuring your lawn. The blades are retractable and suspended beneath the body of the machine on a robust, rotating cutting disc. As a result the grass is cut more gently, more sympathetically than by the often blunt trauma grass is subjected to when cut with larger, considerably less sharp blades on conventional mowers. The grass is also cut gently from all directions and nourished by the micro-clippings produced being returned to the soil as mulch and a natural fertiliser, helping it to grow strong, fuller and healthier. The cutting method and principle Automower® uses to cut grass is also efficient in operation, consumes extremely low levels of energy and operate at a fraction of the cost of conventional lawnmowers.

Automatic charging

When Automower® needs more power, it simply returns itself back to its docking/charging station and reenergises itself. Once fully charged and ready to go, it will simply return itself back to work until its scheduled cutting cycle is complete.

Scheduling

Automower® is designed to work you and your lifestyle. You decide when you want it to mow and when you do not, and if you change your mind, it is quick, simple and easy to change your programmed schedule.

Weatherproof

Automower® is designed to be used outside, unattended and around the clock, regardless of the weather conditions, even the wet. In the winter months and extreme temperatures it would be advisable to keep your mower inside a garage or shed, whether its compact size and weight allows it to be easily and conveniently stored or even hung.

Automower® Connect

Allows you to remotely operate Automower anytime from anywhere via your smart device. You can easily send start, stop, park commands and even change your desired cutting height of grass, as well and adjust other personal settings of your choosing to suit you

Weather timer

This ingenious function adjusts the working time of Automower® to suit the lawn’s rate of growth, thereby optimising mowing time during periods of increased grass growth. In sunnier and drier weather or late in the season, Automower® will spend less time mowing and in doing so, decrease lawn and mower wear.

Systematic cutting

In order to deliver excellent cutting results across the entirety of the lawn, Automower® can be set to automatically switch mowing pattern from random mode to systematic mode which senses and navigates the mower through narrow spaces, such as between flower beds etc, varying the route to avoid unpleasant track marks and perform systematic mowing to cut grass in parallel tracks to create a striped, chequerboard or triangle pattern effect on the lawn.

Frost guard

This function automatically interrupts the mowing schedule in frosty conditions for the betterment of the lawn.

Hose washable

Keeping your Automower® clean and presentable could not be easier. The exterior and underside of your Automower® can be quickly and conveniently washed down with a garden hose.

Anti-theft alarm

Each Automower® has a unique PIN code for added protection and security. Settings can only be changed and the audible alarm deactivated using its unique PIN.

Lift & tilt sensors

If Automower® is lifted off the ground or tips over, the cutting action of the mower automatically shuts off and stops. The rotating Automower® blades are also purposely positioned to sit within the underside and shielded part of the mower and far from the outer edge of the mower body for additional safety. If Automower® meets an obstacle whilst mowing the lawn, like a garden pot or ornament for example, it will simply and gently stop, redirect itself and travel in a different direction.

Spot cutting

Special mode to quickly mow a limited area of longer grass. This feature is especially useful for areas beneath for example garden furniture, play equipment etc, once the obstruction(s) have been removed allowing free and unobstructed movement of the mower. Simply place the mower in the desired area and choose the Spot cutting mode. The mower will then mow in tight spirals and when finished resume in automatic mode.

Spiral cutting

Automatic cutting function which determines a variation in grass height and mows the area in a spiral motion until the grass is cut and reduced to a uniform length.

GPS assisted navigation – PATENTED

An on-board GPS system creates a map of the garden, including where the boundary and guide wires are installed, which the mower will then register which parts of the garden it has covered, adjusting its mowing pattern accordingly to ensure the full defined lawn area(s) specified are uniformly cut. This ensures optimised lawn coverage and an excellent cutting result.

Electric cutting height – PATENTED

Allows cutting height to be easily and simply adjusted by the electrically operated height adjustment which can either be accessed via the main menu on the dashboard or remotely via smart device.

TargetHeight

For improved lawn quality, TargetHeight lowers the cutting height automatically from MAX to defined height gradually and incrementally over a 10 day period.

FOTA – Firmware-Over-The-Air

This function permits the possibility to make software updates automatically over the air through Automower® Connect.

Quiet in operation/Environmentally friendly

Thanks to the combination of its li-ion battery power and unique cutting system, Automower® is very quiet and discreet in operation reducing noise-pollution. Your neighbours often will not even be aware that Automower® is at work; day, night, early or late. Automower® is also environmentally friendly as it produces no CO₂ emissions and consumes extremely low levels of energy.

Manages slopes up to 40%/22º

Thanks to the compact size, lightweight, chassis design and large coarse-tread drive wheels for optimised traction and balance even on slippery surfaces, the Aspire™ R6V has the ability to work on slopes up to 40%/22° (15%/6.4° at boundary) and on undulating, uneven ground too.

Smart Home Integration

The Aspire™ R6V is compatible with Amazon Alexa, Google Home and IFTTT for convenient voice control and status updates. This applies to all Automower® models with cellular or Wi-Fi connectivity, enabling you to execute voice commands such as start, stop and park, as well as get status updates from your mower simply by asking your voice assistant, use it in IFTTT routines and more. With Automower® Connect you can also integrate your robotic mower with the Gardena smart System and let mowing and watering your lawn work hand-in-hand together.

Smart Connections with IFTTT

Use Smart Connections in the Automower® Connect app or create your own flexible routines with IFTTT to integrate Automower® even more into your smart home. Perhaps you want your mower to park when the kids come home from school or when the weather forecast shows heavy rain? Or perhaps synchronise it with the weather? IFTTT (“If, This, Then, That”) is free and easy to use.

Wire free installation

The Aspire™ R6V Automower® in combination with Husqvarna EPOS™ offers the freedom of completely customisable lawn maintenance, by creating virtual boundaries through satellite based technology, instead of physical boundary wires.

Advanced AI Camera Object Detection & Avoidance

The onboard AI vision camera and built-in technology allows the mower to operate even if there is a loss of signal, due to Wi-Fi, cellular or satellite obstruction in locations such as under trees etc. The onboard camera uses advanced AI to assist the mower in detecting and avoiding objects, reducing the risk of unplanned stops, even at night. The detections mode reduces the speed and makes collisions softer and the avoidance mode causes the mower to turn away and avoid impact.

Husqvarna EPOS Technology

Virtual boundaries through satellite based technology with an accuracy down to 2-3cm. No physical wires mean new level of robustness and flexibility with unmatched possibilities
