Safety Manual for the Robomow RM 200 (PDF - Connox

12. Over-heat Monitoring Protection
The blade motor and each of the two wheel drive motors are monitored continuously during operation
for any situation that may cause these motors to over-heat. In such event, Robomow will stop
operation of at least that motor and possibly the mower itself and indicate that the motor is cooling
down. While unusual, this may happen when the mower is on grass that is severely overgrown; the
underside of the mower is clogged from poor cleaning maintenance; the mower has encountered an
obstacle that is unable to activate the bumper sensor preventing it from moving; or a problem
landscape area has caused the mower to get stuck and is preventing it from moving.
WARNING!
This warning symbol will be found at several
points throughout the pages of this manual.
It is intended to highlight an important safety,
warning or cautionary message.
Please pay particular attention to these
areas and be sure you fully understand
the message before proceeding.
How It Works
A small wire, called the perimeter wire, is placed around the perimeter of the lawn and any other areas where
you do not want the mower to enter. A small signal is generated from a device attached to the perimeter
wire, called the Perimeter Switch. When turned on, this signal is carried through the perimeter wire, creating
what we define as a virtual wall. The virtual wall is visible only to Robomow, keeping Robomow where you
want it, on your lawn. The perimeter switch must be turned on to activate the perimeter wire before Robomow
will operate.
