INSTALLATION

The Ambrogio robotic mower works in a predefined area by means of a perimeter wire fixed with special pegs and buried underground. The ends of the wire are connected to the robot's charging station, which in turn is connected to the mains power.

Once the perimeter wire is installed and the desired parameters are set, Ambrogio cuts the grass autonomously, without requiring any intervention. It works according to programmed work intervals, mowing the lawn every day or as often as you want, and alternating between mowing and charging phases.

The charging station is installed along the perimeter in an area that is suitable for the user.

The latest generation of Ambrogio robots is equipped with special functions, sensors and radars that allow the mower to recognise and map the working area without the need to install a perimeter wire.

The robots are equipped with guide manuals for DIY installation. You can install the robot yourself by following the instructions provided. If you have a garden larger than 1,000 square meters, our advice is always to consult a specialist.

Yes, the perimeter system can be changed at any time after the initial installation.

No, if you rely on a professional installer, the perimeter wire is laid with a special tool under the turf and the soil will absorb the operation within 36 hours, returning the grassy surface to its previous state without any sign of the wire or the laying furrow. Even a DIY installation, if done properly, will not affect the grassy surface.

The perimeter wire can be repaired without any problems. We recommend that you disconnect the power supply to the transmitter of the charging station, and repair the wire in the following way:

  • remove the covering at both ends of the break;
  • join the two ends with waterproof heat-shrink tape or, alternatively, with dedicated gel clamps.

OPERATION AND FEATURES

Ambrogio recharges itself. When the battery reaches the minimum voltage, the robot emits a signal and heads for the charging station.

Ambrogio is designed to work in all weather conditions and withstands both very low and high temperatures. However, it is advisable not to use it during rainy weather in order to avoid damaging the lawn. In fact, Ambrogio is equipped with a rain sensor that, when activated and in the event of rain, returns the robot to the charging station. The sensor can however always be turned off.

Ambrogio can work both day and night. In any case, it is advisable to avoid mowing at night when the grass is still wet with dew, as this may damage the lawn.

In order for Ambrogio to avoid objects in the garden, e.g. flower beds, trees, bushes and decorative elements, they must be surrounded by the perimeter wire. As soon as the robot encounters an object at least 10 cm high, it lightly touches it and then changes direction. Ambrogio does not cause any damage and cannot be damaged.

To proceed correctly, please refer to the section in the instruction manual on how to prepare the work area.

The latest generation of robots are equipped with innovative functions, and have sensors that recognise all kinds of objects and are able to avoid them. They can also detect grass by means of a sensor. Basically, Ambrogio keeps the cutting blade active and stays within the perimeter of the garden because it is able to detect the grassy surface.

Ambrogio robots are equipped with a mulching function, which means there is no need to collect grass clippings. The grass clippings are finely shredded and redistributed on the lawn as a natural fertiliser. This makes the lawn lush while avoiding the hassle of collecting and disposing of the cut grass.

Yes, the Ambrogio robots can manage up to 8 mowing areas in the garden. Consult the technical data sheets of each robot to find the right model for your garden.

All models in the Ambrogio Robot range can be connected via Bluetooth to your smartphone. The interface can be managed via the Ambrogio Remote App, which allows you to set or change the settings of your lawnmower. The App also allows you to drive the robot with the integrated joystick.

In addition to the App, the most equipped robots come with a touchscreen display for managing functions.

Yes, the robot can be managed via the ZCS Connect module. This system is integrated into many Ambrogio robot models.

The robots have a power consumption of around 60 watts (like a light bulb or a smartphone charger). Consumption is very low and does not affect electricity bills.
