TargetHeight feature

Gradually lower cutting height over 10 days with TargetHeight

When to use the highest cutting height

Keep the cutting height at the highest level for the first few weeks after a new installation or when the grass is long. This helps protect both the grass and the loop wire in boundary wire installations. Gradually reduce the height each week until you reach your desired level.

About TargetHeight

Some Automower® models offer the feature TargetHeight, which automates this process by gradually lowering the cutting height from the maximum level to the specified cutting height during a period of 10 days. This is especially useful when installing new boundary wire to avoid the wire from getting damaged by the mower, or at the start of the season to prevent grass damage. Remember, manual adjustments of the cutting height during this period will deactivate TargetHeight.

Enabling TargetHeight on the mower’s display

You can enable this feature on the mower’s display:

1. Go to Menu and select Cutting height.

2. Choose TargetHeight.

3. Press OK to enable or disable the feature.
