Q: Why does the STIGA A 750 always get stuck near the zone boundaries?

The STIGA A 750 uses a system of virtual boundaries defined via the STIGA.GO app instead of physical wires. Repeated blockages at the zone boundaries can have several causes: GPS/RTK Precision Issues The robot relies on the AGS GNSS-RTK system with an included satellite reference station. A positioning inaccuracy may lead the robot to believe it is approaching the boundaries too closely. Check that the satellite reference station is correctly positioned and aligned with the charging station Ensure that no source of electromagnetic interference (power lines, antennas) is in the immediate vicinity Calibrate the charging station via the STIGA.GO app: tap on Calibrate the charging station and follow the procedure Virtual Boundary Configuration The installation parameters for the boundaries may be too restrictive: Maintain a cleared area of 2m x 3m in front of the charging station Keep at least 30cm of distance between the defined boundaries and actual obstacles For structures taller than 50cm, increase this distance to 40cm Check in the app that the virtual boundaries are not drawn too close to the actual edges of the terrain Battery and Performance A low battery charge reduces the robot's responsiveness. Ensure that the 25.2V lithium battery is fully charged before testing (charging time: 40+ minutes). Priority actions: Recalibrate the charging station and recheck the boundaries in STIGA.GO by widening the safety margins.

Question 1

Why does the STIGA A 750 always get stuck near the zone boundaries?

Accepted Answer

The STIGA A 750 uses a system of virtual boundaries defined via the STIGA.GO app instead of physical wires. Repeated blockages at the zone boundaries can have several causes:

GPS/RTK Precision Issues

The robot relies on the AGS GNSS-RTK system with an included satellite reference station. A positioning inaccuracy may lead the robot to believe it is approaching the boundaries too closely.

Check that the satellite reference station is correctly positioned and aligned with the charging station
Ensure that no source of electromagnetic interference (power lines, antennas) is in the immediate vicinity
Calibrate the charging station via the STIGA.GO app: tap on Calibrate the charging station and follow the procedure

Virtual Boundary Configuration

The installation parameters for the boundaries may be too restrictive:

Maintain a cleared area of 2m x 3m in front of the charging station
Keep at least 30cm of distance between the defined boundaries and actual obstacles
For structures taller than 50cm, increase this distance to 40cm
Check in the app that the virtual boundaries are not drawn too close to the actual edges of the terrain

Battery and Performance

A low battery charge reduces the robot's responsiveness. Ensure that the 25.2V lithium battery is fully charged before testing (charging time: 40+ minutes).

Priority actions: Recalibrate the charging station and recheck the boundaries in STIGA.GO by widening the safety margins.

Question 2

Why does my Stiga A 1000 robotic mower follow its path but does not cut?

Accepted Answer

If your Stiga A 1000 moves correctly but the cutting mechanism does not cut the grass, several elements need to be checked quickly in the following order.

Check the condition of the cutting blades. The robot has 4 rotating blades of 180 mm turning at 2850 rpm. Carefully examine each blade for damage: if a blade is bent, dull, or broken due to impact, it must be replaced immediately. Worn or damaged blades cannot cut effectively. Weekly cleaning of the blades is mandatory according to the maintenance guide - dirty blades lose their cutting efficiency. If cleaning is not enough and you notice visible wear, replace the blades in pairs to maintain balance (blade reference: 322104105/0).

Clear the cutting system of obstructions. Strings, hair, grass, twigs, or plastic fragments can completely block the blades and immobilize them. Immediately stop the robot, carefully turn it over, and inspect the cutting mechanism. Manually remove any debris stuck around and between the blades. This is a common cause and often the quickest to resolve.

Adjust the cutting height if the grass is too high or dense. The Stiga A 1000 offers a range of 20 to 60 mm. If the grass exceeds 60 mm, the blades may be overloaded and not cut effectively, or even get stuck. If you haven't mowed in a long time, first set the height to maximum, then do a pre-mow with a traditional mower. For subsequent passes, set the robot to 20-30 mm for optimal results.

Replace the blades if they are damaged. Safely turn off the robot, gently turn it over taking care not to damage the casing, unscrew the fixing screws, install the new blades with their fixing bolts, and tighten the screws firmly. Refer to section 4.2 of the manual for complete details with illustrations.

Mandatory annual maintenance. An annual maintenance service at an authorized STIGA center is mandatory to maintain the warranty and ensure the proper functioning of the cutting system. If you haven't done this this year, make an appointment at an authorized center. Any malfunction due to the absence of this annual maintenance will not be covered by the warranty. Failures of the electric motor also require replacement at an authorized center.

Question 3

Can the STIGA Stig 1200 robotic mower operate without a Bluetooth connection?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the STIGA Stig 1200 robotic mower can operate without a Bluetooth connection. The Bluetooth functionality is primarily used to connect the device to a smartphone or another interface to modify settings or monitor its status.

However, even without Bluetooth, the mower is capable of operating autonomously and mowing the lawn according to the settings defined directly on the device. Therefore, the Bluetooth connection is a convenient addition but not essential for the basic operation of the robotic mower.

Question 4

Can the STIGA Stig 1200 robotic mower connect to the Internet?

Accepted Answer

The STIGA Stig 1200 robotic mower does not have the capability to connect to the Internet. It operates autonomously without requiring Internet access to mow your lawn.

This lack of connectivity means that you cannot control or monitor the device remotely via a mobile app or Wi-Fi network. All commands and settings must be made directly on the robot or through the designated physical interfaces.

In summary, the STIGA Stig 1200 is designed for simple and autonomous use, without integration of connected or smart functions related to the Internet.
