Lawnbott Service manual and other troubleshooting info!!

[Botman]

While doing some searching today, found an interesting pdf file.  Its labeled Lawnbott Installation Course.  It is for the l200 and l300.  It appears to be the general Lawnbott manual, but has much more info on the user and service menu.  It includes a lot of info on troubleshooting that I have not seen documented anywhere else.  It is from the website www.robotshop.com

Most interesting was some troubleshooting info on blackout errors and other problems that can occur.

This link is for information only.  Robotlady has posted that users shouldn't play around with the settings in the service menu, so I would like to reiterate that.

Enjoy!

Good find Botman!  It's interesting to read the troubleshooting section..  Not only to help figure out what our problem is, but to see all the problems we can expect in the lifetime of these things.

We have that document, too.  We have not published it because it is intended for dealers only.  There are things in the document that may be confusing for consumers because it is written with an expectation of certain knowledge.  If you need help understanding the document, contact Robotshop (maybe they will change their mind and take it down...).

Some things may also be confusing because they're in translated Italian...

Thanks for posting this. 

Since day one I have complained that my bott curved to one side.  Well, it clearly states in this manual the tilt sensors are reset every time the robot goes into the charging base.  Since my base isn't perfectly level it has been throwing off my roll sensor. 

Time to level that base and think I will add a driveway while I am at it.

Saw your post and had similar problems. Went out and leveled the base and problem gone!  So thanks for posting this!
