The iMOW® 5 is part of the latest generation of iMOW® robotic mowers from STIHL. These robotic mowers mow your lawn automatically, so you don’t have to, giving you a beautiful green lawn. Capable of cutting lawns of up to 1,500 m2 and gradients of up to 45%, the iMOW® is powered by a high-performance lithium-ion battery for efficient and continuous work over long periods.
The iMOW® is controlled using the MY iMOW® app which controls all of the functions for the robotic mower, such as sending it out to mow, returning it to the dock, changing the mowing plan, adjusting the cutting height or checking the current status of the iMOW®. The iMOW® EVO has a mobile connection which means you can connect to it via the MY iMOW® app at any time and send it out to mow even if you aren’t at home. It can also connect to the MY iMOW® app via a home WiFi network or Bluetooth connection when close to the machine as well.
Installed by laying or burying a thin wire around the outer edge of your lawn and around obstacles such as shrubs, trees, flower beds, etc. A second wire in the centre of your lawn helps the iMOW® to travel home to charge. If the iMOW® comes across objects in the mowing area then it’s sensors will activate, causing it to slow down, softly bump into it and then go off into another direction. You can install your iMOW® yourself via the MY iMOW® app, which provides guided instructions on how to complete the install. If installing this way, you will need the appropriate installation kit (sold separately) for your yard size to install the iMow®.
The iMOW® is a mulching mower. Mulching is the process of cutting the grass into small clippings which are then dropped back into the lawn, acting as a natural and nutrient-rich fertiliser. Plus, you have the bonus of not having to empty a grass catcher box ever again! The iMOW® cuts the grass little and often, the clippings decompose quickly – leaving no trace of them, apart from a well-nourished, lush, green lawn!
If you want to check the status of the iMOW® or can’t access the MY iMOW® app, you can press the info button on the control panel at the top of the iMOW® which will talk to you and tell you when the next mowing session is. Using these buttons, you can send the iMOW® home, out to mow or lock the mower without going onto the app. The iMOW® EVO also has an LED matrix display at the top of the iMOW which shows the status, such as spinning blade when mowing or a padlock when locked in the dock.
Please be aware that the iMOW® robotic mower is not a toy. Children and small animals must be kept away from the mowing area when it is out to mow. You must also make sure the mowing area is clear of small objects such as footballs and toys. For further safety information, please read the instruction manual.
