Product Information

Full details

The Bosch VISIMOW Robotic Lawnmower (VISIMOW18V-100) is designed for homeowners with small to medium-sized lawns (up to 100 m²) seeking an effortless, wire-free mowing solution. Its key benefit is the installation-free setup enabled by SmartVision technology, allowing users to start mowing within seconds. A potential caveat is its suitability primarily for simpler lawn layouts and smaller areas, as it relies on a random mowing pattern and object detection rather than precise mapping.

FAQs

Do I need to install boundary wires for the Bosch VISIMOW?

No, the Bosch VISIMOW uses SmartVision technology, which eliminates the need for perimeter wires, antennae, or beacons. It can start mowing within seconds of being placed on the lawn.

What is the maximum lawn size the VISIMOW18V-100 can handle?

The mower is designed for lawns up to 100 square meters (m²).

How is the cutting height adjusted?

The cutting height can be adjusted manually between 20 mm and 60 mm to suit your lawn's needs.

Can the VISIMOW mow multiple, separate lawn areas?

Yes, its semi-autonomous design allows you to easily carry it between different zones, such as a front and back garden, and initiate mowing in each.

What is the SpotMow feature?

SpotMow allows you to target a specific small area of uncut grass, ensuring complete lawn coverage even in tricky spots or after moving garden furniture.

What battery system does this mower use?

It uses the Bosch 18V battery system, part of the POWER FOR ALL ALLIANCE, meaning the battery is compatible with over 150 products from Bosch and other partner brands.

How do I clean the VISIMOW?

Wipe the mower with a damp cloth after use. Ensure blades are clear of debris and store it in a dry place. Gently clean the sensors if they appear dirty.

Troubleshooting

Mower does not start

Ensure the 18V battery is fully charged and correctly inserted. Check that all three start buttons have been pressed in sequence. Verify that the mower is on a level surface.

Mowing pattern seems erratic or misses areas

This is normal for a random mowing pattern. For complete coverage, ensure the mower has sufficient time to complete its cycle. Utilize the SpotMow function for any persistently missed small patches. Ensure sensors are clean.

Mower stops unexpectedly

Check if the battery needs recharging. The mower may also stop if it encounters an unexpected obstacle or if it is lifted off the ground. Ensure sensors are clean and unobstructed.

Mower not recognizing grass

Ensure the cutting blades are sharp and clear of debris. Check that the mower is placed directly on the grass and not on hard surfaces. The grass may be too short or too wet for optimal recognition.
