For more information, see operating instructions or visit the "Products" section of this Website.

Can I use a GARDENA Robotic Lawnmower for separate working areas?

If the working area consists of two separate lawn areas where the Robotic Lawnmower can’t move by itself, we recommended making it possible to lay the wire to the other areas. In this case, the Robotic Lawnmower is supported manually between main and secondary areas. Use the MAN mode / other area and the Robotic Lawnmower mows until the battery is empty. Using this method, you will need to take the Robotic Lawnmower to the charging station by yourself.

See the operating instructions for detailed information about this procedure.

Must the charging station be placed on the lawn or could it be placed on a vegetable patch?

The area in front of the charging station is a high-traffic location. The Robotic Lawnmower should be able to start in any directions and return to the charging station from any direction. For further information, see section "How to install the charging station for the GARDENA Robotic Lawnmower" in the operating instructions.

How small can the narrow passages for the GARDENA Robotic Lawnmower in my garden be?

It is better to avoid long narrow passages and Areas narrower than 1.5 m. Otherwise the Robotic Lawnmower might mow the passage for too long or be unable to remove itself from the passage.

How narrow could the passages (approx. 1 m in length) for the GARDENA Robotic Lawnmower in my garden be?

Gardena R80Li: minimum 60 cm (wall-to-wall).
