TROUBLESHOOTING

The information below is designed to help identify and correct any faults and malfunctions which 
may occur during operation.

Some failures can be resolved by the user; others require specifi c technical skills or special 
abilities and therefore must only be resolved by qualifi ed personnel with certifi ed  experience 
gained in the specifi c fi eld of intervention.

Problem

Cause

Remedy

The robot is very noisy

Cutting blade damaged.

Replace the blade with 
a new one (see “Blade 
Replacement”, page 35).

Cutting blade engulfed by 
residuals (tapes, ropes, 
plastic fragments, etc.).

Stop the robot safely (see 
“Robot safety stop”, page 
26). Use protective gloves to 
avoid the risk of cutting your 
hands. Remove the cause of 
the fl ood from the blade.

The robot was started too 
close to obstacles (less than 
1 m. (40 in.) away) or in the 
presence of unexpected 
obstacles (fallen branches, 
forgotten objects, etc.).

Stop the robot safely (see 
“Robot safety stop”, page 
26).

Remove the obstacles and 
restart the robot.

Electric motor failure

Have the motor repaired 
or replaced by the nearest 
authorised service centre.

Too high grass.

Increase the cutting height 
(see “Cutting height 
adjustment” on page 22).

Carry out a preliminary 
cutting of the area with a 
normal lawnmower.
