Maintenance Safety
- Before servicing the machine,
turn the power switch underneath the machine to the Off position.
- Do not allow children to clean
and maintain the machine.
- Keep your hands and feet away
from moving parts on and under the machine.
- The blades are sharp; contacting
the blades can result in serious personal injury.
- Shut off the machine.
- Wear cut-resistant gloves when
servicing the blades.
- Do not repair or alter the blades.
- Inspect the machine often to ensure
that the blades are not worn or damaged.
- Maintain or replace safety and
instruction labels as needed.
- Disconnect the power supply from
the electrical outlet before performing maintenance on or cleaning
it to reduce the risk of electric shock.
- Do not attempt to repair, open,
or disassemble the charging station or power supply.
- Take the charging station to an
Authorized Service Dealer for service or repair. Do not disassemble
the charging station.
- For best performance, use only
genuine Toro replacement parts and accessories. Other replacement
parts and accessories could be dangerous,
and could void the product warranty.
Battery and Charging Station Safety
- Clean the charging port on the
mower and/or charging station using a nonconductive tool (cloth or
soft brush); otherwise, damage may occur.
- Wipe the charging terminals on
the charging station and mower using a clean, dry cloth if they are
dirty.
- When servicing the battery, do
not wear jewelry and tie back long hair.
- Do not dismantle or open the battery.
- Keep the battery clean and dry.
- Do not use or charge the mower
if it is unusually hot or emits smoke or an unusual smell.
- Leaking battery fluid can cause
skin and eye irritation or chemical burns.
- If the battery leaks, do not allow
the liquid inside the battery to contact skin or eyes. If there is
contact, wash the affected area with a
large amount of water and seek medical advice.
- Use an inert absorbent such as
sand to clean up spilled battery fluid.
- Dispose of a used battery properly.
- Do not dispose of the battery
in a fire. The cell may explode. Check with local codes for possible
special disposal instructions.
- CAUTION—A mistreated battery may present
a risk of fire, explosion, or chemical burn.
- Do not disassemble the battery.
- Replace the battery with an approved
battery only; using another type of battery may cause a fire or risk
of injury.
- Keep battery out of the reach
of children.
Servicing the Battery

mower in the charging station to charge.
Replacing the Blades
Always mow
with sharp blades. Sharp blades cut cleanly without tearing or shredding
the grass.
 |
Warning |
|
The blades are sharp; contacting
the blades could result in serious personal injury.
Wear cut-resistant
gloves and use care when replacing or cleaning the blades.
-
Turn the
power switch to the Off position.
-
Tip the mower
over.
-
Rotate the
blade disc until the holes on the blade disc align with the screws.
-
Using a Phillips-head
screwdriver, remove the blade screws and blades.
-
Clean any
debris from cutting system.
-
If the service
interval is reached for a set of blades for the first time, you may
flip the blades over and install them to the
mower again using the existing screws.
Note: Both sides of the blades have sharp edges that can be used for mowing.
One set of blades should only be flipped over once.
-
If installing
new blades or both sides of the blades have been used, install the
blades using the provided screws.
Note: Discard the existing blades and screws after using both sides of
the blades, or if the blades are damaged.
-
Turn the
mower over.
-
Turn the
power switch to the On position.
-
Press the
play (resume operation) button on the control panel.
Cleaning
Cleaning the Mower and Charging
Station
Do not pressure-wash the mower;
the water can damage the electronics.
Use compressed air when
cleaning the mower.
Clean the charging port on the
mower and/or charging station using a non-conductive tool (cloth or
soft brush); otherwise, damage may occur.
|
Caution |
|
If metal objects contact the positive
and negative posts at the same time, this could short out the battery
pack. The battery pack or conductor could
overheat and burn you, resulting in minor or moderate injury.
Do
not use metal objects to clean around the battery.

obstructions in the top side of the mower (e.g., a stick that got
stuck or debris buildup).
-
Use a dry
cloth or non-conductive soft brush to clean the mower charging port 
.
-

Glossary
Advisory
A message that informs
the user of an operator error or anything that may cause a job to
pause or halt and may require the user to intervene.
App
An abbreviation for software application.
A computer program on a mobile device that performs one or more tasks.
Also called application or mobile app.
Autonomous
Automated machine functions
that operate in autonomous mode during all the operating cycles of
the machine.
Boundary
Something that indicates
or fixes a limit or extent. For a robot, it is the outside, no-cross
line of an operating area, transit path or zone,
or exclusion area. Also called perimeter.
Bump Sensor
An electronic sensor used
in detecting and recording physical touch. Also called tactile sensor or touch sensor.
Charging Station
An automatic
battery-charging facility located on or within the working area.
Computer Vision
The way a robot “sees” the world around it, putting together
the sensor data and the pictures it creates to respond to its environment.
Exclusion Zone
An area recorded
by the operator that the robot shall not enter.
Fault
The result of a mechanical,
sensor, or software error, which requires service or correction of
the machine, sensor, or software code.
Job
The work being performed by a
robot at one time inside an operating area.
Localization
The process of determining
where a mobile robot is with respect to its environment. Localization
is a most fundamental competency required by a robot
as the knowledge of its location is necessary for making decisions
about future actions.
Mowing Zone
An area in which the robot
can run autonomously. The area inside a boundary. Operating may be
interchangeable with adjectives that describe the
work, such as mowing, clearing, and trenching.
Navigation
The ability of a robot
to determine its own position in its frame of reference and then to
plan a path toward some goal location.
Obstacle
An object or ground condition
which can cause harm, or is harmed, if it comes into contact or collision
with the machinery.
Obstacle Avoidance
The process
of avoiding a collision with an obstacle in the path of a robot by
maneuvering around the obstacle.
Obstacle Detection
The process
of detecting objects or terrain types that impede the motion of a
robot. A robot may use obstacle avoidance to maneuver
around an obstacle.
Obstacle Sensor
A device that
senses when the machine contacts a person or an obstruction.
Path
A route that a robot is programmed
to travel. As part of a job, a path can connect multiple fields or
paths.
Robot
A machine designed to execute
one or more tasks automatically. For example, a robot can sense, compute,
and act. It must be able to have sensors that provide
it with input and insights about the physical space around them. It
must be able to compute to make decisions based
on its programming and inputs. To be defined as a robot, it must be
able to move in or change the physical world in
some manner.
Sensing
The feedback from the environment
of the robot, which enables the robot to react to its environment.
Sensory inputs may come from a variety of sensor
types.
Sensor
A device that responds
to physical stimuli (including, but not limited to, heat, light, sound,
pressure, magnetism, and motion) and transmits the
resulting signal or data providing a measurement, operating a control,
or both. For example, a sensor can estimate the
condition of a robot and its environment. This information is sent
to a controller to enable the appropriate behavior.
A robot requires extensive information about its environment to function
effectively.
Transit Path
A non-mowing autonomous
lane used only for the robot to travel from one mowing zone to another.
An autonomous, exact path that passes through, across,
or connects to another transit path, transit area, or operating area.
Working Area
Any defined area in which
the machine can function automatically.
