Press the STOP button to stop the mower. If the anti-theft alarm (see page 59) is activated; enter the first digit of the PIN code.
8 - English 2. PRESENTATION 2. Presentation This chapter contains information you should be aware of when planning the installation. An installation of Husqvarna Automower ® includes four main components: Automower ® , an automatic lawn mower that mows the lawn by moving in essentially an irregular pattern.
English - 9 2. PRESENTATION 2.1 Automower ® , what’s what? The numbers in the picture correspond to: 1. Charging strip 2. Cutting height adjustment cover 3. Catch button to open the cutting height adjustment cover 4. Ultrasonic sensors 5. Drive wheel 6.
10 - English 2. PRESENTATION 2.2 Function of Automower ® Capacity Automower ® 260 ACX is recommended for lawns up to 5000 m 2 +/-20%. How large an area is mown depends primarily on the condition of the blades and the type of grass, growth rate and humidity.
English - 11 2. PRESENTATION Working method Automower ® automatically mows the lawn. It continuously combines mowing and charging. The charging station sends out a signal that Automower ® can sense at a distance of 6 - 7 metres. The mower starts to search for the charging station when the battery charge becomes too low.
12 - English 2. PRESENTATION The control panel on the top of Automower ® is where you manage all the mower settings. The main switch is also located on the control panel.
English - 13 2. PRESENTATION 2.3 Search method Automower ® can be set to search for the charging station in three different ways. Using the setting options the three search methods can be combined to optimise the search for the charging station. The required search method or methods depends on the shape of the garden.
14 - English 2. PRESENTATION Search method 3: Follow guide wire Automower ® runs irregularly until it reaches the guide wire. The mower then follows the guide wire in to the charging station.
English - 15 3. INSTALLATION 3. Installation This chapter describes how you install Husqvarna Automower ® . Before starting the installation read the previous chapter 2. Presentation . Read the whole of this chapter too before starting the installation.
16 - English 3. INSTALLATION • Low voltage cable (21) • Nails (24) • Measurement gauge (25) • Connector for the loop wire (23) • Solderless coupler for the loop wire (26) Contact your dealer.
English - 17 3. INSTALLATION Consider the distance to a wall socket when choosing the position. The charging station should be connected to a 230V wall socket via the low voltage cable and transformer. The supplied low voltage cable is 20 metres long.
18 - English 3. INSTALLATION Do not position the charging station so that the mower can come closer than 3 metres behind the charging station (for example on a narrow point). The mower will not then find the charging station. Installation and connecting the charging station 1.
English - 19 3. INSTALLATION 3.3 Charging the battery Automower ® is supplied with an uncharged battery. As soon as the charging station is connected, it is possible to charge the mower. 1. Set the main switch to the OFF position. 2. Place Automower ® in the charging station to charge the battery while you are laying the boundary wire.
20 - English 3. INSTALLATION Best position for the boundary wire The boundary wire should be laid so it: • Forms a loop around the working area for Automower ® . Only an original boundary wire must be used. This is tinned and has a high quality insulation to withstand the dampness in the ground.
English - 21 3. INSTALLATION Boundaries for the working area If a high obstacle, for example a wall or fence, borders the working area, the boundary wire should be laid 40 cm from the obstacle. This will prevent Automower ® from colliding with the obstacle and reduce body wear.
22 - English 3. INSTALLATION When Automower ® searches for the charging station or follows the loop according to the function Follow loop (3-2) (see page 46), it runs along the side of the boundary wire at a specific distance. The Corridor width (3-2-3) function determines the distance from the boundary wire that the mower shall run.
English - 23 3. INSTALLATION Secondary areas It is recommended to create a secondary area when the working area is made up of two areas that are joined by a passage where the distance between the boundary wires is less than 80 cm. Run the boundary wire then around the secondary area so that it forms an island outside of the main area.
24 - English 3. INSTALLATION Slopes The boundary wire can be laid across a slope that slants less than 10 %. The boundary wire should not be laid across a slope that is steeper than 10 %. There is a risk of Automower ® finding it difficult to turn there.
English - 25 3. INSTALLATION Laying out the boundary wire Run the boundary wire around the working area, but wait before connecting the wire to the charging station. Tip! Use the supplied measurement gauge as a guide when you lay out the boundary wire.
26 - English 3. INSTALLATION Laying the boundary wire in towards the charging station The boundary wire can be routed in several different ways in towards the charging station. The best alternative is to route the wire completely outside the charging station, see alternative 1.
English - 27 3. INSTALLATION 3.5 Connecting the boundary wire Connect the boundary wire to the charging station: 1. Lift up the cover on the charging station: • Grip under the edge of the cover with both hands and pull straight out towards the sides.
28 - English 3. INSTALLATION 3. Place the cable ends in the connector: • Open the connector. • Place the wire in the connector grip. 4. Press the connector together using a pair of pliers. Press until you hear a click. 5. Cut off any surplus boundary wire.
English - 29 3. INSTALLATION 7. Refit the cover on the charging station. Ensure the three guides on the charging station enter the right holes in the cover. 3.6 Checking the installation Check the loop signal by looking to see what indication the green LED on the charging station is giving.
30 - English 3. INSTALLATION 3.8 Installation of the guide wire The guide wire is an extra wire that is laid from the charging station, out towards a remote part of the working area or through a narrow passage and is then connected to the boundary wire.
English - 31 3. INSTALLATION • The route to a remote area is long or complicated. When Automower ® shall follow the boundary wire to or from a remote area and the route along the boundary wire to the area is long or complicated. • The boundary wire runs across a long slope (steeper than 10 %).
32 - English 3. INSTALLATION The longer the guide wire, the closer the mower follows the guide wire. If the guide wire is longer then 300 metres, the mower may find it difficult to follow the wire. This varies depending on the design of the garden and installation.
English - 33 3. INSTALLATION If you shall install the guide wire through a passage: • Automower ® follows the guide wire on the same side of the wire both to and from the charging station.
34 - English 4. USE 4. Use 4.1 Charging a discharged battery When Husqvarna Automower ® is new or has been stored for a long period the battery will not be charged and needs to be charged before starting. Charging takes between 1 1/2 and 2 1/2 hours.
English - 35 4. USE 4.2 Using the timer The lawn should not be cut too often to obtain the best mowing result. Use the timer function (see 6.4 Timer (2) on page 43) to avoid a downtrodden lawn and to get the maximum life from your Automower ® .
36 - English 4. USE 4.6 Restart Restart within 20 seconds 1. Close the control panel cover. Automower ® starts automatically. Restart after more than 20 seconds If more than 20 seconds has elapsed since the last time the STOP button or the keypad was pressed it is not possible to start Automower ® by just closing the cover.
English - 37 4. USE 4.8 Adjusting the cutting height The cutting height can be varied from MIN (2 cm) to MAX (6 cm). If the grass is long it is appropriate to let Automower ® start mowing at the MAX cutting height. Once the grass is shorter, you can gradually lower the cutting height.
38 - English 5. CONTROL PANEL 5. Control panel All forms of commands and settings for Husqvarna Automower ® are made via the control panel. All functions are accessed via a number of menus.
