Frequently Asked Questions - 004-932 Meec Tools

How do I install the boundary wire for this robotic lawn mower?

Route the border wire in one continuous loop around the lawn, keeping it 40 cm from edges and obstacles. Use the supplied fasteners at 80 cm intervals, with shorter intervals on bends. Connect the wire ends to the charging station (left for front, right for back). Ensure the wire runs straight for 2 m in front of the station. See the manual for detailed diagrams.

How long does the battery last and how do I maintain it?

The Li-Ion battery lasts approx. 60 minutes per charge, and has an estimated lifespan of 1-5 years depending on use. For storage, fully charge the battery, remove it, and store indoors. Recharge every 3 months during inactivity to prolong life.

Can I set a custom mowing schedule?

Yes. Using the touch screen, you can select weekdays (Mon to Sun) and time intervals (09:00-11:00, 11:00-14:00, 14:00-19:00, 19:00-09:00). The mower will follow the programmed schedule. Note that only preset intervals are available.

What does the rain sensor do?

The rain sensor detects rain and automatically sends the mower back to the charging station. After charging, it waits 2 hours before resuming mowing. You can enable or disable this feature via the settings (F1:1 = enabled, F1:0 = disabled). Do not short-circuit the sensor terminals.

How do I change the blades?

Switch off the mower with the main switch and wear safety gloves. Turn the mower upside down, unscrew the retaining screws, replace with new blades (each blade has two edges; you can reverse them once), and tighten the screws. Always replace all three blades at once to maintain balance.

What does the error code EF 01 mean?

EF 01 indicates the obstacle sensor is blocked. Check if an object is stuck between the casing and chassis, and remove it. This will clear the error.

How do I store the mower for winter?

Clean the mower thoroughly, fully charge the battery, switch it off, disconnect the mains adapter and charging station. Remove the battery and store it indoors. The border wire can remain outside, but protect the ends with tape or grease. Store the mower on its wheels in a dry place.

What is the maximum slope the mower can handle?

The mower can manage slopes up to 40% within the mowing area. However, the border wire should not cross slopes steeper than 10% to prevent the mower from leaving the area.

Can I use the mower on wet grass?

It is recommended to avoid using the mower on wet grass. The manual advises against it, as wet conditions may affect performance and safety. The rain sensor will automatically stop mowing in rain.

How do I reset the PIN code if I forget it?

If you forget the PIN, you can reset it by pressing and holding the STOP button, then simultaneously pressing and holding the required buttons (refer to the manual for the exact sequence). The factory default PIN is 0000. You can change it via the settings menu.

INSTALLATION

Introduction

We recommend making sketch of the lawn, with all the obstacles and how they will be protected. This makes it easier to choose a good place for the charging station and to see how the border wire should be routed round the border and to protect bushes and flowerbeds etc. Tools needed for installation of the border wire are a hammer and cutting pliers or scissors.

Limitations

If the robotic lawn mower runs into a hard, solid obstacle higher than 100 mm, such as a wall, fence, garden furniture etc., the collision sensors react immediately. The robotic lawn mower stops, reverses, turns and mows in another direction. We still recommend that obstacles are protected with a loop of the border wire.

Trees

The robotic lawn mower handles trees like all other obstacles, but exposed roots less than 100 mm high should be protected, otherwise the roots can be damaged by the blades or back wheels.

Stones

Any stones in the mowing area that the robotic lawn mower can run up on should also be protected with a loop of the border wire.

FIG. 3

Slopes

The robotic lawn mower can manage up and down slopes with an inclination of up to 40% within the mowing area.

FIG. 4

The border wire should not run across slopes steeper than 10%, otherwise there is a risk that robotic lawn mower runs over the border wire and comes outside the mowing area, especially if the grass is wet and slippery.

FIG. 5

Paths, drives and roads

If the lawn borders a drive or the equivalent at a different level to the lawn, the border wire should be routed so that the robotic lawn mower does not run over the drive to get to the other side of the lawn. Leave a safe gap of 40 cm between the border wire and the edge of the drive.

FIG. 6

If the drive and lawn are on the same level you can allow the border wire to form a corridor across the drive for the robotic lawn mower to go through.

FIG. 7

Uneven lawns

If the lawn is very uneven the blades can come into contact with the ground during the mowing. If this is a problem this part of the lawn can be levelled, or protected with the border wire.

Flowerbeds

- Any flowerbeds in the mowing area must be protected with border wire loops. If the robotic lawn mower is to follow the border wire round the protected area the gap between the two parallel parts of the border wire should be more than 10 cm.

FIG. 8

• If the robotic lawn mower is to pass over the two parallel parts of the border wire to take the quickest route to the charging station the gap between the two parallel parts of the border wires should be less than 5 mm.
• When this alternative is chosen a suitable obstacle must be placed at point A in the diagram. This is so the robotic lawn mower can change direction and follow the border wire back to the charging station.

FIG. 9

Ponds and pools

The robotic lawn mower can be damaged or destroyed if it goes into water and therefore it is very important that any ponds or pools in the mowing area are protected with a border wire loop or fence.

FIG. 10

Note:

NOTE:

The border wire must not cross itself.

- Any corridors in the mowing area must be at least 2 metres wide and not more than 8 metres long.

FIG. 11

• If there are corridors narrower than 2 m or longer than 8 metres the robotic lawn mower must be carried through the corridor. Try to route the border wire so that too narrow or long corridors are avoided.
• Pay attention to how the border wire is routed round flowerbeds and other places that should be protected. Note that bushes and plants in flowerbeds change during the season.

FIG. 12

Marking out the routing of the border wire

• Mark out where the border wire is to be routed according to the sketch made of the garden. Make the markings accurate, this enables many problems to be avoided. The border wire must consist of one continuous loop, without interruption and without crossing, that ends by connecting both ends to the charging station.
• First decide where to place the charging station. It should be placed near an outdoor approved power point, because it must be

connected to the mains all the time the robotic lawn mower is used. The power cord to the charging station is 10 metres long.

- Place the charging station on a level surface. The border wire is connected from the front and from the back. The border wire must run straight for at least 2, or ideally 3 metres in front of the charging station, so that the robotic lawn mower can follow it into the charging station without any problems. There should be 1 metre of level ground beside the charging station, so that the robotic lawn mower can if necessary reverse and try to go into the charging station again.

FIG. 13

- Place the charging station in the shade if possible – the battery charges better in a cool place.

NOTE:

The charging station must be placed on a level surface, at a safe distance from obstacles, ponds, and dips etc.

Positioning the charging station

NOTE:

The mower follows the border wire ANTICLOCKWISE to the charging station. Make sure that the charging station is positioned with the opening in a CLOCKWISE direction so that the mower can connect with the charger.

- The charger (A) must be positioned so that the mower (B) goes in an ANTICLOCKWISE direction. The opening on the charger must therefore face in a CLOCKWISE direction.

FIG. 14

- The charging station must not be placed up on an elevation or down in a dip.

FIG. 15

• The charging station must not tilt more than 5^ sideways. We recommend that the border wire runs straight for 2 metres in front of the charging station. If the lawn is soft and/or uneven we recommend placing a plastic net, 0.5 × 1m , in front of the charging station so that the back wheels on the robotic lawn mower do not dig into the ground.
• Place the charging station on the chosen spot and check that the power cord reaches to the power point, but do not plug in yet. Finish routing the border wire before plugging in the plug.

Fastening the border wire

- Unpack the border wire and localise the free end. Take the fastener pins and lay them out on the lawn at the correct distance from the edges of the lawn (40 cm) and obstacles. A distance gauge is included. If necessary, cut the grass to no more than 60 mm before starting to fasten the border wire. The border wire does not need to be dug down. Try to route the border wire as close to the ground as possible, to reduce the risk of it being cut or someone tripping over it. The border wire soon becomes overgrown by grass. Because the voltage in the border wire is 32 V, it does not present any risk to people or animals.

- Place the fastener pins at intervals of about 80 cm, with shorter intervals on bends. Do not press down the pins completely until all of the border wire has been laid out and fastened. Place all the fastener pins with the wire hook turned away from the area to be mowed.

FIG. 16

• Place all the fastener pins with the wire hook turned outwards, as shown in the diagram.
• When the fastener pins have been laid out all the way the border wire can be hooked in the wire hooks. Start at the charging station and leave 1 metre of extra length at both ends of the border wire in case any fastener pins need to be moved. Do not stretch the border wire too tight, this can cause it to become damaged. Remember that the border wire must run straight for 2–4 m in front of the charging station so that the robotic lawn mower can go into the charging station properly. Make sure the border wire is not bent or twisted.
• On hard surfaces, such as concrete or paving, where it is not possible to use the pins, the border wire can be fastened with screws and plugs. Use insulating washers if the border wire is fastened with screws.
• If the border wire needs to be spliced, use the supplied connector tool.
• Start from the back of the charging station. Leave 1 m of extra length and fasten the wire with the pins at about 80 cm intervals. Leave another 1 m of extra length at the other end, when the border wire has been routed all the way round back to the charging station.

FIG. 17

- Avoid routing the border wire with 90^ corners. The robotic lawn mower mows outside the wire when it turns. Route the border wire so that the corner is cut to an angle of 45^ as shown in the diagram.

FIG. 18

- Follow the instructions for routing the border wire round flowerbeds and other obstacles. Route the border wire at the right angle to the edge of the lawn (see diagram), round the obstacle and back to the edge of the lawn. The gap between the two parallel parts of the border wire should be as small as possible, without them crossing. The two parallel parts of the border wire can be fastened with the same pin. The robotic lawn mower will go over them without stopping or turning.

NOTE:

If the supplied border wire does not reach round all of the areas to be protected, or if other changes are to be made later on, it is easy to purchase more wire and to splice it with the supplied connector tool.

Connecting the border wire to the charging station

- When the border wire has been routed, strip off 10–15 mm of the insulation round the end with scissors or stripping pliers to expose the metal wires. Twist the metal wires with your fingers to make them easier to connect.

FIG. 19

FIG. 20

- When both ends of the border wire are ready to connect, they can be connected to the charging station. The part of the border wire that

comes in to the front of the charging station must be laid under the charging station and connected to the back of the charging station. This part of the border wire is connected to the left connection, marked F, and the part that comes in to the back of the charging station is connected to the right connection, marked B.

FIG. 21

• When signal S1 or S2 has been selected and the border wire is connected to the charging station, the charging station can be anchored with the fastener pins. Before it is anchored, check that the charging station is standing on a level surface and that the cord still reaches to the power point. Check that the border wire runs straight for at least 2 m in front of the charging station and that the extra length is inserted and protected under the charging station.
• Check that the plug is not plugged in to the power point and then connect the mains adapter cord to the charging station.
• Now plug the plug into the power point. The status lamp should first flash blue and then go a steady blue. If the status lamp does not go on, check the power point connection. If the status lamp goes on, but not with a steady blue light, see the troubleshooting table below.

FIG. 22

Troubleshooting, status lamp

Status lamp Description
Steady blue light. Normal.
Flashing blue light. The	charging station's inner wire is damaged.The border wire is OK.
Flashing red light. The	mower is charging. Normal.The border wire is damaged. The charging station's inner wire is OK.
Flashing blue and red light.	Both the border wire and the charging station's inner wire are damaged.

When the status lamp has a steady blue light to show that all the connections are correct, the fastener pins can be tapped in with a hammer. Check afterwards that the status lamp is still a steady blue to show that everything is working properly. Place the robotic lawn mower inside the mowing area, a few metres in front of the charging station.

Set the robotic lawn mower's main switch to ON. Press STOP to open the panel and get at the keypad. Press HOME (to right on the display) then close the panel. The robotic lawn mower will now start a test sequence and return automatically to the charging station by going to the nearest border wire and following it anticlockwise back to the charging station, where it docks and starts charging. If the robotic lawn mower fails to dock, you may need to the adjust the charging station sideways until is docks with problem.

After the robotic lawn mower has docked the following symbol will flash. The battery symbol shows stepwise how the battery is charging.

EN

When the robotic lawn mower is working properly and a good place has been found for the charging station, fasten the charging station with the supplied plastic spikes. Make sure not to damage the border wire.

NOTE:

• Check that the connections to the charging station are correct. If the border wire is incorrectly connected the robotic lawn mower will not work, even if the blue status lamp is on.

Note:

• Clean the blades and wheels often for best functionality and lifespan.
• Do not set longer times than necessary for the actual lawn, for best battery life and useful life of the robotic lawn mower.
• Do not mow at temperatures lower than 10^ for best battery life. At low temperatures the battery discharges quicker and must be charged more often.
• Avoid sharp turns and make sure the border wire is not bent or crossed.
• Save the packaging for future transportation.
• Do not mow the lawn shorter than 4 cm. The cuttings will not manage to decompose within 1 week.
• Keep the charging plate and pin clean for best charging functionality.
• Apply grease on the connections on the back of the charging station for better contact and to prevent corrosion.

MAINTENANCE

NOTE:

• Check and clean the robotic lawn mower regularly, with a brush or cloth.
• Repair or replace any damaged parts.
• NEVER pour water on the robotic lawn mower.

Battery life

The robotic lawn mower has a maintenance-free lithium battery with an estimated lifespan of at least 2 years, depending on usage. The battery is easy to take out from the robotic lawn mower. Fully charge the battery, take it out and store indoors during the winter. The battery should be recharged every 3 months to maintain its useful life.

CLEANING

WARNING!

• The mower must NOT be washed with water.

• NEVER use a high-pressure washer or running water to clean the mower.

• Keep the robotic lawn mower clean. The robotic lawn mower can handle slopes better if the wheels are clean, and the blades mow better if they are clean and sharp.

• Switch off the robotic lawn mower with the main switch before cleaning and wear safety gloves when touching the blades.
• Be careful when cleaning the casing. Use a soft brush, or wipe with a damp cloth.

WARNING!

The penetration of water can cause the electronic components to stop working.

• Clean the charging plate and pin with steel wool, a wire brush or fine sandpaper.

BLADES

WARNING!

• Always switch off the robotic lawn mower with the main switch before cleaning.
• Wear safety gloves when touching the blades and blade plate.
• There are three blades on the blade plate. If the blades do not strike any obstacles they will remain sharp for 5 months, even if the robotic lawn mower is programmed to mow every day. Replace the blades when they are worn. A set of spare blades is included.
• Spare blades are also sold by the dealer. If the blades or screws are worn or damaged, always replace the complete set to avoid imbalance. Only use blades and spare parts recommended by the manufacturer to ensure safe and effective mowing.

Reversing the blades

Each blade has two edges, which means they can be turned round once before they need to be replaced.

1. Undo the retaining screw for each blade.
2. Turn round the blade and replace.
3. Tighten the retaining screw.
4. Turn round, or replace all three blades at the same time. Regularly check that the blades are not blunt or damaged.
