What this sheet is for
Know where the wire runs and where it has been joined before the next break. Blade changes, firmware and battery behaviour are kept season by season alongside.
Who it is for
Owners of a robotic lawn mower, and the gardeners or dealers who look after one for somebody else.
How to use it
- Sketch the lawn, the boundary and guide wires and the charging station once, and number every join as it is made.
- Write where the PIN is kept, never the PIN itself.
- Log each blade change, clean, firmware update and anything the battery is doing.
- When the wire breaks, record where, the join number and what it was mended with.
- Work through the start and end of season lists each spring and autumn.

Questions
Why not write the PIN on the sheet?
Because the PIN is what stops a stolen mower being used, and this sheet may be kept in a shed or handed to a gardener. Write where it is recorded instead, so the right person can find it.
How often should the blades be changed?
That depends on the model, the lawn and how many hours it runs, and some mowers keep their own blade timer. The sheet records each change so you can see how long a set lasts on your lawn, and leaves the figure to the handbook.
