Can I use batteries from other Bosch tools with this mower?

How do I switch between collecting and mulching grass?

To collect grass, attach the 35L grass bag. To mulch, remove the grass bag and insert the included mulch plug into the designated slot at the rear of the mower deck.

What is the minimum and maximum cutting height?

The cutting height can be adjusted in 5 steps, ranging from a minimum of 25 mm to a maximum of 65 mm.

How should I store the mower to save space?

The mower features a foldable handle and can be stored vertically. Simply loosen the handle adjustment knobs, fold the handle down, and then stand the mower upright against a wall.

Does the mower come with a battery and charger?

Yes, this specific package (ROTAK18V-34) includes one 18v 2.5Ah battery and one 18v charger.

How often should I clean the mower?

It is recommended to clean the mower, especially the deck and grass bag, after each use to maintain optimal performance and prevent clogging. Ensure the battery is removed before cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Mower not starting

Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted. Check that the safety key is in place and the power button is pressed correctly.

Uneven cutting

Verify the cutting height is set uniformly across all settings. Check the blade for damage or dullness and ensure the grass bag is not overfilled, obstructing airflow.

Reduced runtime or power

The battery may need recharging. Ensure no blockages around the blade or in the grass chute. Overgrown or wet grass can also increase power consumption.

GrassCombs not effective

Ensure the mower is set to the appropriate cutting height for the lawn length. GrassCombs work best when the mower is moving steadily forward.

Setup:

Care:

  • After each use: Remove the battery and clean the mower deck, blades, and grass box. Use a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using water directly on the motor housing.
  • Blade Maintenance: Periodically check the blade for damage or dullness. Sharpen or replace as needed for optimal cutting performance.
