How a Navimow robot mower works
A Navimow robot mower works within a mapped lawn. How it finds its way depends on the model. Check the model before you compare features. Cameras, drive systems, and slope limits vary.
Map the lawn before mowing
A wire-free mower needs a lawn map and a good setup. Plan the charging station, routes between lawn sections, and areas to exclude. Read the manual for where to put the equipment. Check how much space it needs.
Trees, buildings, narrow paths, and hills can affect the layout. Test each route during setup. Walk the yard as well as checking it on a map.
Check safety features
Sensors can help detect obstacles. They do not replace keeping people and pets outside the mowing area. Clear toys, cords, stones, and other loose objects before a run.
Read the family safety guide and the manual supplied with the mower. Ask the installer to show the stop control and safe shutdown steps.
Set the mower for the grass
Choose a cutting height the grass needs and the machine supports. Plan enough mowing time to maintain that height without running over wet or stressed turf. Check the blades. Follow the manual for upkeep.
Buying a mower or choosing a service
If buying, compare hardware, installation, support, repairs, and storage. Trimly provides winter storage for leasing and mower maintenance plans. Check the plan terms when arranging it.
