Tool safety  
• Always switch off the lawn mower using the power switch  
before inspecting or cleaning the underside or carrying out  
repairs.  
WARNING!  
Always switch off the lawn mower using the  
power switch before inspecting, cleaning or  
!
carrying out repairs. The batteries should  
always be disconnected when carrying out  
maintenance or repairs to the lawn mower’s  
internal components. The only exception is  
when current or voltage needs to be meas-  
ured. Extra care should then be exercised.  
Care and storage safety  
• Store the lawn mower in an area that is dry but not too warm,  
otherwise damage can be caused to the solar panels and  
batteries.  
• During the winter the lawn mower should be stored in a dry  
place, preferably in the original packaging or parked on all four  
wheels, with the power switch off and the batteries discon-  
nected.  
• Replace damaged parts. Check especially that the blades and  
cutting disc are not damaged. Change all the blades at the  
same time so that rotating parts are balanced.  
• The lawn mower contains environmentally hazardous batter-  
ies. In accordance with applicable laws regarding spent  
batteries: These must not be thrown in household waste or  
mixed with industrial waste. Those who professionally sell  
batteries or such equipment where such batteries are in-  
cluded, are obliged to accept spent batteries and thereafter  
leave then to an approved authority for disposal.  
Transport safety  
• Fold up the rear section of the solar panel and switch off the  
power switch when transporting the lawn mower. Use the  
original packaging when transporting the lawn mower over  
longer distances.

TROUBLE SHOOTING  
General trouble shooting tips  
Solar panels  
The dealer should have a test lawn of a least 5 x 5 m, sur-  
rounded by a loop cable and generator. This test lawn can be  
used in those cases where the customer has a problem with  
the lawn mower not detecting signals from the loop cable.  
Thereby making it possible to determine whether the operating  
disruptions are due to metal objects or electrical power lines in  
the customer's garden.  
A number of solar panels connected together transform daylight  
into electrical energy. This electrical energy drives the lawn  
mower and charges the batteries.  
When the lawn mower is in the sun its rays are sufficient to  
drive the lawn mower and charge the batteries.  
The microprocessor is also used to measure the voltage levels  
from the solar panels, and thereby determine whether the lawn  
mower has gone into the shade or whether dusk is approach-  
ing.  
So called “islands“ (see the diagram below), which are formed  
with a loop around flowerbeds, fountains, etc. should be routed  
in the loop cable’s direction and have a diameter of at least 2 m  
(see the Operator’s Manual) to ensure its function. If the  
commands F1-9 are changed to increase sensitivity then  
smaller “islands“ can also be made, carry out tests before  
burying the loop cable.  
In the evening, when the light intensity is too low, the lawn  
mower stops and signals with 1 beep every 10 seconds. This  
indicates the night mode.  
All trouble shooting should be preceded by at least 1 hour of  
charging (with the switch in the off position) outdoors in the  
middle of the day, to eliminate the fault being badly charged  
batteries.  
If the lawn mower avoids the shade during the day, it is be-  
cause the batteries at the present time do not have sufficient  
capacity and to also ensure a long operating time. Large  
amounts of sun (sunny weather) allow the mower to charge fully  
before it starts to move, while small amounts of sun (cloudy)  
means that it charges a little and then moves hoping to find a  
sunnier part of the lawn.  
If the lawn mower frequently stops to charge in the shadow, this  
is a sign that the batteries are deficient.  
To check the operation of the solar panels the jointing sleeves  
535 03 86-01 should be dismantled and the current from the  
front and rear solar panels should be measured.  
535 03 86-01  
Read through the entire Workshop Manual and the Operator’s  
Manual to determine whether the fault is easily rectified via the  
keyboard or with the main power switch.  
The panel's connection cables should be connected as follows:  
The red cable from the box to the red cable from the front of the  
body (suitable length 85 mm).  
The black cable from the box to the black cable from the rear of  
the body (suitable length 55 mm).  
The black cable from the front of the body to the red cable from  
the rear of the body (suitable length 70 mm).  
When the panels are connected together (in series) the cable  
runs to the box and is connected to the connector X1 at terminals  
6 (black) and 7 (red). See the circuit diagram on the last page.  
As the light intensity can vary a great deal it is difficult to specify  
an exact current, however, if a different current is measured from  
the front and rear solar panels at the same time, you may  
presume that the panel that generates the lowest current is faulty.

TROUBLE SHOOTING  
The panel can still work despite one of the segments being  
Motor and cutting disc  
damaged, but then gives a lower capacity. This can mean that  
the machine frequently stands still and charges, even on very  
sunny days. Or the lawn mower can stand still and beep once  
every 10 seconds, which is the night mode signal, despite it  
being the middle of the day.  
A 12V AC motor with controlled speed (max 2500 r/min) is used  
as the cutting motor. The cables from the motor are connected  
to connector X1 on the terminals 1-5 on the circuitboard in the  
box. Registration of the motor speed is made by using a  
tachometer which sends signals to the microprocessor on the  
circuitboard in the box.  
No objects should be placed on top the panels for these to give  
maximum electrical energy. Panels should be cleaned using a  
damp sponge and a soap solution/hand washing up detergent  
when surfaces are dusty or dirty and during the pollen season  
or with similar daily soiling.  
The speed measurement is made to “measure“ the length of the  
grass (mowing resistance).  
If the mowing resistance momentary exceeds the mean value  
for the last few minutes the lawn mower can move in a spiral  
pattern, to mow areas that have longer grass than average.  
When the lower mower senses a drastic reduction in the  
mowing resistance, or if an obstacle comes in its way, it returns  
to its normal movement pattern.  
Great care should be exercised when handling the panels due  
to their low weight and fragility. This is especially important  
when the lawn mower is turned upside down, e.g. when the  
cutting height needs to be adjusted (see the diagram below).  
The cutting height can be adjusted variably between 30-60 mm.  
Adjust the height by loosening the orange coloured knob and  
move the entire cutting unit upwards or downwards in its  
mountings.  
The cutting disc is bolted to the cutting motor’s shaft and holds  
3 blades thrown out by centrifugal force.  
These blades are mounted in blade holders (coloured red) to  
allow them to be easily attached to or dismantled from the  
cutting disc. The design of the blade holders ensures that the  
blades are well secured if a collision with small objects, e.g.  
twigs on the lawn, should occur.  
WARNING!  
The blades are extremely sharp. Always wear  
protective gloves when working with the  
blades or cutting disc.

TROUBLE SHOOTING  
Drive motors  
Two, 12 V DC motors with reversible direction of rotation are  
used to drive the lawn mower forwards. The two drive motors  
can rotate in different directions at the same time to give the  
lawn mower a tight turning circle and increase manoeuvrability.  
A gearbox is engaged after the drive motors to give the lawn  
mower increased traction. The speed is registered by a tachom-  
eter which is connected to the motors. The speed of the motors  
is then governed by the microprocessor.  
The cables from the drive motors are connected to the connec-  
tor X9 (left) and X8 (right) on the circuitboard in the box. The  
voltage to the drive motors should be 12 V.  
Red cable (+) and black cable (-) are the supply cables. These  
can be fed with 12 V for test driving. The other three cables are  
used to control the motor.  
The sensor is sensitive to moisture and dirt. If, for example,  
grass sticks between the sensor's pins this will cause signal  
leakage and the lawn mower will possibly signal that it cannot  
sense a signal from the loop cable (3 beeps/second). The  
unused (smaller) pin can be cut off and insulated using silicon if  
the problem frequently recurs.  
Supply cable  
The part of the cable harness that runs from the sensor is  
connected to terminals 15 and 16 on the connector X1 on the  
circuitboard. (Arbitrary pole reversal.)  
Moisture sensor  
Using the keyboard (press C0) you can activate the moisture  
sensor which is located under the box so that the lawn mower  
can determine whether the grass is too moist to give an accept-  
able mowing result.  
Sensors  
A sensor (coil) is mounted on top of the front bracket between  
the front wheels, see the diagram below, so that the lawn  
mower can sense the electromagnetic field emitted by the loop  
cable.  
Sensor  
A copper rivet and a zinc plate form a galvanic element that  
when wet generates a voltage of 0.7V, which can be measured  
on the cables on the inside.  
The lawn mower uses two different systems to sense the  
electromagnetic field:  
The moisture sensor only measures moisture in long grass, that  
is, it will not react to short, moist grass.  
1. The lawn mower should, with a loop length of 300 m – at a  
distance of max. 35 meters from the loop cable (see  
diagram) sense that the loop cable is generating an  
electromagnetic field, see diagram, (with a 500m loop  
length - max 25 m). If it does not sense the electromagnetic  
field an error signal, 3 beeps/sec. is sounded.  
The cables connected to the rivet are connected to connector  
X5 on the circuitboard.  
NOTE! The maximum cutting area to achieve a good  
cutting result is approx. 1200m2.  
2. The lawn mower should sense the increase in the electro-  
magnetic field as it approaches the loop cable and because  
of this turns just in front of the loop cable.

TROUBLE SHOOTING  
Microswitches (Collision detectors)  
Cables  
The front panel’s rear edge is suspended in two, spring-loaded  
aluminium levers.  
The cables are used to connect all the electrical components on  
the lawn mower that concern, propulsion, charging, communica-  
tion and mowing.  
These levers in turn activate two microswitches which are  
integrated in the “housings“ (see the diagram below) that  
connect the front panel with the box.  
When checking whether a cable break has occurred all connec-  
tions must be removed before each individual cable is resist-  
ance measured using a multimeter.  
For operations to be good, bearing in mind the short cable  
lengths in question, the resistance in the cables should be 0  
ohm.  
Batteries  
The microswitches are activated when the bumper on the front  
of the lawn mower hits an obstacle. These give a signal to the  
microprocessor that tells the lawn mower to back away. The  
lawn mower determines whether to reverse straight back and  
then turn to the left or right depending on whether the right-  
hand, left-hand or both microswitches are activated.  
Two, series connected 6V Nickel-Cadmium batteries are used  
in the lawn mower. One, 2.4V Nickel-Cadmium battery is used  
in the generator.  
If you wish to check whether the microswitches are functioning  
proceed as follows:  
1. Check that the microswitches ”click” when the levers are  
pressed back.  
2. Dismantle the black cover plates on the sides of the  
microswitches.  
3. Check that the levers (535 03 29-01) are not bent and that  
they run parallel to the side of the microswitch housing.  
4. Check that the microswitch’s arm can move freely in the  
hole against lever.  
The batteries are used in the lawn mower to power the “compu-  
ter“, i.e. the circuitboard with microprocessor, even at night to  
ensure that the theft alarm works. The batteries also act as a  
buffer when the lawn mower is mowing in the shade or during a  
cloudy or a partially sunny day. This is why the lawn mower can  
still mow for short periods on cloudy days.  
5. Measure the voltage (the main power switch in position “1“)  
between the earth (the box) and one of the cables on the  
microswitch. The voltage should be 5.0-5.1 V on one pin  
and 0 V on the other.  
Press the lever backwards, the voltage should be between  
5.0 - 5.1 V between the earth and the connected cables. If  
a voltage value lower than 5 V is obtained then the  
microswitch is defective and should be replaced (presup-  
poses charged batteries).  
In the generator, the battery ensures that the loop is generating  
an electromagnetic field even when the sun is not shining  
sufficiently to power the generator. It is important that the  
generator is placed where it is well lit.  
If the lawn mower requires long charging times on very sunny  
days and, despite this, only has a short operating time, it’s  
reasonable to suspect that the batteries need to be replaced.  
The batteries in the lawn mower should be changed in pairs to  
guarantee operations, as a new battery with a relatively old  
battery will reduce capacity and in some cases completely  
destroy the new battery. If changing the batteries does not help,  
check whether the solar panels are functioning correctly.  
Microswitch  
Another sign that the batteries are discharged is when the lawn  
mover frequently stops in the shade to charge.  
535 03 29-01  
If the lawn mower has difficulties in sensing the electromagnetic  
field from the loop cable when it’s cloudy, at daybreak or dusk,  
the battery in the generator may need to be replaced, see page  
2. Thereafter check that the cables outside and inside the  
generator are in working order, and that there are no loose  
connections.  
6. Also check that the cables from the microswitch are  
correctly made in terminals 8-11 on connector X1 on the  
circuitboard. Right 8 (+) 9 (-) and left 10 (+) 11(-).  
The lawn mower stands in the charging mode (2 beeps/10  
seconds) for a maximum of 40 minutes, irrespective of whether  
the batteries are fully charged or not.

TROUBLE SHOOTING  
If the loop cable is correctly connected a signal should be given  
Keyboard  
when the momentary switch on the generator makes. If the  
generator does not give a signal, start by bridging the generator  
using a piece of cable and make the generator's switch again. If  
a signal is now heard then the loop cable is not correctly  
connected or there is a break in the loop cable. Start by check-  
ing the cable's connection to the generator. If the cable is  
corroded, cut and strip it so that a good contact is obtained.  
Measurement of the loop cable's resistance is carried out with  
the cable disconnected from the generator. The resistance  
should be max. 2 ohm/100m per loop cable (max. loop cable  
length is 500 m).  
The keyboard is used to deactivate the theft alarm and to enter  
the security code and to change limit values for a number of the  
lawn mower’s parameters.  
If the keyboard ceases to beep when the keys are pressed this  
can be due to, in addition to a discharged battery and/or  
insufficient light, bad contact between the cables and the  
connectors on the circuitboard.  
The keyboard is attached to the box using self-adhesive tape,  
which is why care should be exercised when the keyboard is  
replaced and must be removed. All remaining adhesive should  
be removed using acetone or a similar solvent but not white  
spirit, to ensure the new keyboard is correctly attached.  
If a cable break is established, (R=infinity), start by checking the  
joints and the transition between ground and air. (For damp and  
oxide-proof joints use jointing sleeves 535 04 43-01.) Use only  
original loop cables from Husqvarna.  
WARNING! The box must not be washed while  
electronic equipment is fitted.  
!
Generator and loop cable  
The generator is used together with the loop cable to form an  
electromagnetic enclosure that the lawn mower senses and  
keeps within.  
535 04 43-01  
The lawn mower gives a signal of 3 beeps/sec. if it does not  
sense the electromagnetic field emitted by the loop cable.  
The problem can be due to the sensor under the front of the  
lawn mower being faulty, or the generator and/or loop cable  
also being faulty. If the cable has been routed in the wrong  
direction around "islands" then this will extinguish the electro-  
magnetic field.  
The easiest way to check the operation of the generator is to  
measure the current flow in series with a functioning loop cable.  
There is a risk, with a measurement value under 7mA AC, that  
the electromagnetic field will be too weak.  
Check that the cables and connections inside of the generator  
are correct. Another quick check is to test using a new battery  
(allow to charge in daylight).  
Metal objects and electrical cables on the lawn can weaken the  
loop cable's electromagnetic field. If the lawn mower only  
signals 3 beeps/second in certain areas of the garden this can  
mean that it's experiencing a disturbance in just this area. Try  
moving the loop cable. Sharp bends (90 degrees) in the loop  
cable bring about a weakened electromagnetic field and this  
can result in the lawn mower escaping (see diagram).  
> 7mA AC  
Sharp cable bends = risk  
of escaping.  
Gentle bends give a  
stronger electromag-  
netic field.

TROUBLE SHOOTING  
Main power switch  
Circuitboard with CPU  
The main power switch ensures that the lawn mower does not  
start when it is switched off. The code must be entered in the  
lawn mower every time the main power switch has been  
switched off, even some commands are reset (see the Opera-  
tor's Manual). Note that the switch does not cut the voltage from  
the batteries and solar cells. Accordingly, the batteries' connec-  
tion cables should be disconnected when working inside the  
box and during the winter storage period.  
The circuitboard together with the CPU (microprocessor) are  
the lawn mower’s “brain“ and handle all functions, commands  
and path selections the lawn mower decides on, based on the  
input data provided by the keyboard, sensors, solar panels,  
microswitches (collision detectors) and the batteries charge  
status.  
To check whether an operating disruption is due to an error in  
the microprocessor start by resetting it 3 times (preceded by  
charging in daylight for at least 1 hour). That is, remove and  
reconnect one of the batteries connectors 3 times, allowing 5  
seconds to elapse in between.  
The main power switch can be checked by measuring its  
resistance. The resistance should be 0 ohm respective infinite  
resistance depending on the position of the switch.  
Also check that the fuses on the circuitboard have not blown  
and that they make good contact in the fuse holders. Replace  
fuses carefully.  
Magnetic switch  
The magnetic switch is located by the hinge between the front  
and rear solar panel halves and ensures that the lawn mower  
does not start until the rear solar panel has been lowered.  
The voltage between the fuses and the earth can also be  
measured and should be the same as the actual battery  
voltage. (The main power switch in position “1“.)  
The magnetic switch can be checked by putting the power  
switch in the “on” position and then lowering the rear solar  
panel. When this is done a click should be heard from the relay  
on the circuit board and the machine indicates “start-up” (1  
beep/second) for 10 seconds. If you hear this the magnetic  
switch functions correctly.  
I
f this does not solve the problem you can try replacing the  
microprocessor with a microprocessor that you know functions  
correctly. The processor must be lifted out using the processor  
tool, otherwise there is a large risk of damaging the processor  
pins.  
If the “start-up” does not start, temporarily strap the connection  
screws on the magnetic switch. If the “start-up” now starts the  
magnetic switch is defective.  
NOTE! All work on or in connection with the circuitboard  
must take place with the batteries disconnected to avoid  
short circuiting. Static electricity can also damage the  
microprocessor.  
For information on how to replace the magnetic switch refer to  
service notice tab 5, 96.016.  
When trouble shooting, a microprocessor with the article  
number 535 04 90-01 can be used, all have the code “A 00000  
B“. This microprocessor shall only be used for trouble shooting  
and repair work.  
All other trouble shooting (in addition to replacing the  
circuitboard) consists of checking that connectors and cables  
are connected correctly on the circuitboard, even dampness  
and dust can result in faults, which is why cleaning with a dry  
brush and drying indoors can solve basic problems with short  
circuiting. Ocular inspection can also reveal the reason for a  
fault.  
Buzzer  
The lawn mower has a buzzer on the outside of the box that  
generates a beep, which the machine uses to interact with the  
user. The buzzer's volume can be adjusted using B0 - B9,  
where B9 gives a louder signal and B0 mutes the buzzer. If  
these setting have no effect on the volume, try replacing the  
buzzer. Connect 12 V DC to the buzzer to check whether it  
functions; it should sound.  
There is also a buzzer on the circuit board, which has a fixed  
volume. If you wish the machine to be completely silent this  
must be blocked. This is done by pressing silicon into the hole  
on the top of the buzzer. Note this will also mute the beep heard  
when pressing the keys.

AC.  
If this occurs in isolated areas it can be  
caused by disturbances from metal  
objects (fencing, reinforcement) or by  
underground cables in the vicinity.  
Try moving the loop cable.  
If it occurs in the vicinity of an “island”, it  
can be due to the loop cable be routed in  
the wrong direction around the “island”  
and thereby extinguishing the signal.  
Check that the loop cable has been laid  
according to the instructions in the Installa-  
tion guide.  
If it only occurs in the morning it can be  
caused by the battery in the generator  
being discharged.  
Replace the generator battery.  
The lawn mower jerks  
forwards and backwards  
and swings quickly.  
The electronics were started at too low  
voltage.  
Reset the processor by disconnecting and  
reconnecting one of the batteries 3 times.  
The microswitches switch too easily,  
e.g. at corners or over bumps.  
Check that the microswitches do not  
switch before a tractive force of approx.  
10N is applied.  
Play on the drive motors' contact  
connections.  
Check the drive motors' circuit board  
connection.  
Faulty gearbox on a drive motor or  
faulty tachometer (hall element) on a  
drive motor.  
Try by replacing one drive motor at a time.  
Electronic fault.  
Replace the circuit board.  
The lawn mower stops  
frequently to charge when  
in the shade.  
The batteries have discharged.  
Replace the batteries.

TROUBLE SHOOTING  
The lawn mower  
escapes.  
The signal from the loop is not strong  
enough.  
Check the sensor, wipe off any grass or  
moisture on the cable connections.  
Ensure the cover is fitted. If the problem  
frequently recurs cut off the unused lug  
and insulate using silicon (see service  
notice tab 5, 96.018).  
Measure the current in the loop cable.  
There is a risk that the electromagnetic field  
is too weak with values under 7 mA AC.  
If this occurs in isolated areas it can be  
caused by disturbances from metal  
objects (fencing, reinforcement) or by  
underground cables in the vicinity.  
Try moving the loop cable.  
The loop cable is bent sharply  
(90 degrees).  
Lay the loop cable so that the bend is  
gradual.  
Loop cable is too deep.  
Move the loop cable.  
The code must be  
enter frequently.  
The electronics have temporarily lost its  
voltage, and interprets this as if the lawn  
mower has been switched off.  
Check the battery connection the circuit  
board.  
1 beep/second  
The cutting disc is blocked.  
The drive wheel is blocked.  
Check that the disc can rotate freely.  
Check whether something is blocking the  
drive wheel.  
The lawn mower starts to reverse when  
it is switched on.  
A microswitch has jammed. Check and  
rectify.
