Model equipped with status LED indication and robust and easy to manage switch for START / STOP functionality. Simplifies use for inexperienced users and minimizes serious impact on the mower in case of vandalism. Full surveillance from smart phone, tablet or laptop.
Rubber-made front bumper makes the mower more restistant to recurrent collisions with trees, shrubs and other objects within the installation.
An onboard GPS system creates a map of the garden, including where the boundary and guide wires are installed. Husqvarna Automower® will then register which parts of the garden it has covered and adjusts its mowing pattern accordingly. This will ensure optimized lawn coverage and an excellent cutting result.
Husqvarna Automower® cuts just a little but frequently, which assures a nice and healthy lawn. It is equipped with sharp razor-like blades made of strong carbon steel mounted on a robust cutting disc system. This provides for efficient operation and extremely low energy consumption.
Thanks to the free movement pattern of Husqvarna Automower® the lawn is perfectly cut, achieving a beautiful and carpet-like look. The razor-sharp blades cut the grass gently from all directions, helping it to grow strong. Moss growth is effectively prevented.
Efficient energy management means low energy consumption, allowing Automower® to operate at a fraction of the cost of conventional lawnmowers.
Automower® is electrically powered and produces no harmful emissions.
If Automower® is lifted off the ground or tips over, the cutting automatically shuts off. In addition, the blades are rotating far from the outer edge of the machine. If Automower® meets an obstacle it will stop and redirect itself without causing any damage.
Large coarse-tread wheels provide excellent traction even if the surface is slippery. The mower handles slopes up to 45%.
Just a push on the PARK button to call back the mower to the charging station, in areas like public football pitches, golf courses etc.

The larger grass area, the better and more important with several starting points.With active GPS assisted navigation (specific models), the remote starting points are autoset and manual settings are not needed.
Thanks to its unique cutting system, Automower® works extremely discreet and quiet and just when you want.
