Product Information

Full details

The Bosch Rotak ROTAK 18V2-38 is designed for homeowners with medium to large gardens (up to 500m²) seeking a powerful and convenient cordless mowing experience. Its key benefit is the dual 18V battery system delivering robust 36V performance for efficient cutting and extended runtime, complemented by effortless one-handed grass bag emptying. A potential caveat for some users might be the reliance on the 18V POWER FOR ALL ALLIANCE battery system for optimal use and expansion, though the included kit mitigates this immediately. Key features include a 38cm cutting width, central height adjustment, a brushless motor for longevity, and space-saving storage options.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the recommended lawn size for this mower?

The Bosch Rotak ROTAK 18V2-38 is recommended for lawns up to 500 square meters.

How long does it take to charge the batteries?

Charging time depends on the battery's state of discharge and capacity. A 4.0Ah battery typically takes around 70-80 minutes to fully charge with the included twin charger, allowing for simultaneous charging of both.

Can I use other 18V batteries with this mower?

Yes, the mower is part of the 18V POWER FOR ALL ALLIANCE system. Batteries from other brands within this alliance are compatible, but Bosch recommends using their own 4.0Ah or higher capacity batteries for optimal performance and runtime.

How do I activate the mulching function?

To mulch, remove the grass box and insert the provided mulch plug into the mower's rear discharge opening. The grass will be finely cut and distributed back onto the lawn.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Bosch typically offers a standard 2-year warranty for their power tools, which can often be extended under specific registration conditions. Please refer to the product's documentation or Bosch's official website for exact warranty terms.

Is assembly required?

Minimal assembly is required. You will need to attach the grass box and ensure the handle is securely in its operating position. Batteries need to be charged before first use.

How does the one-handed grass bag emptying work?

The mower features a magnetic deflector guard. When you lift the guard, it magnetically holds itself in an open position, allowing you to easily tip the grass box into a bin or compost pile without the guard obstructing the flow.

Troubleshooting

Mower won't start.

Ensure both batteries are correctly inserted and charged. Check that the safety key is in place and the starter lever is engaged. Verify the grass box is properly attached.

Uneven cutting or poor cut quality.

Check the blade for damage or dullness. Ensure the cutting height is set appropriately for the grass length. Clean any debris from the cutting deck.

Grass bag not filling effectively or spilling.

Ensure the grass box is correctly seated. Check for blockages in the chute or within the grass box itself. The magnetic deflector guard must be correctly positioned for optimal airflow and collection.

Reduced runtime or power.

Ensure batteries are fully charged. If batteries are old, their capacity may have diminished and they may need replacement. Clean any debris from vents to prevent overheating.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This is a complete kit, meaning it includes the lawnmower, two 4.0Ah 18V PowerForAll batteries, and a twin battery charger. To begin, simply ensure the batteries are fully charged using the provided twin charger. Once charged, insert them into the designated slots on the mower. Attach the grass box. Adjust the cutting height using the central lever to your desired setting. The mower is now ready for use.

Compatibility:

The ROTAK 18V2-38 utilizes the 18V POWER FOR ALL ALLIANCE system. This means the included batteries are compatible with a wide range of tools from Bosch and other POWER FOR ALL brands. For optimal performance and runtime, Bosch recommends using batteries with a capacity of 4.0Ah or higher.

Care:

Cleaning: After each use, remove grass clippings from the underside of the mower deck and the grass box. Use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Never use water for cleaning the motor housing.
Blade Maintenance: Inspect the rotary blade periodically for damage or dullness. Sharpen or replace as needed by a qualified technician to maintain cutting performance.
Storage: Store the mower in a dry, sheltered place. Utilize the foldable handle and vertical storage feature to save space. Ensure batteries are stored separately in a cool, dry environment, away from direct sunlight.
Battery Care: Follow the manufacturer's guidelines for battery charging and storage to maximize their lifespan.
