How to winterize a mower robot

Winterizing a robotic lawnmower

1. Check the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Most robotic mowers have specific recommendations for winter storage.

We’ll talk a little below about winterizing the Landroid robotic mower from Worx.

Be sure to check your mower’s manual for tips.

2. Clean the mower.

Give your mower a good cleaning before storing it for the winter.

This will prevent corrosion and keep it looking its best.

3. Sharpen the blade.

A sharp blade is a must for a robotic mower.

Be sure to sharpen the blade before winter storage.

You can also change the small blades to get your robotic mower ready for next spring.

4. Store the mower in a cool, dry place.

When it comes to storage, location is everything.

Be sure to store your mower in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.

5. Check the battery

If your mower is equipped with batteries, check them before storing it for the winter.

Batteries can lose their charge over time, so it’s important to check them and make sure they’re still in good working order.

1. Cleaning

Clean your Landroid carefully.

Do not use pressure washers, detergents or water in general.

Compressed air, a rag and a little elbow grease will do the trick.

2. Battery care and storage

Make sure the battery is fully charged before turning off your Landroid.

Keep the battery charged by fully recharging it at least every two months.

3. Storing your Landroid robot mower

To properly winterize your robot mower, you can store it in a dry place at a temperature above 0°C so that it doesn’t freeze.

The base of the robot can of course stay outside without any problem.

It should be unplugged because there is no point in leaving it powered except to waste energy!

Conclusion

With these tips, you can be sure that your robotic mower is ready for winterization.

Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations and take good care of your mower, and it will be ready for use when spring arrives.
