STIHL iMOW® robotic lawn mowers: for a perfectly maintained lawn
STIHL iMOW® robotic lawn mowers mow your lawn completely automatically, can handle gradients up to 40% (and even 45% for the EVO models) and independently recharge themselves. Thanks to electric cut-height adjustment and a new mowing system, you can achieve a precise mowing result every time.
Advantages of the STIHL iMOW®
Why should I get an iMOW® robotic lawn mower? We have listed the main advantages of the STIHL iMOW® system for you here.
The iMOW® works quickly, independently and uses smart mowing so you have even more time to enjoy your freshly cut lawn.
High blade speed produces a clean cutting pattern on the grass The robust, free-swinging and durable blades regularly change rotation direction to produce a consistently precise result
The iMOW® robotic lawn mower can cut grass to your chosen height between 20 and 60 millimetres. It’s very easy to precisely adjust the iMOW® to an exact grass length: just use the app to set the cut height according to your preference.
The STIHL iMOW® easily masters gradients up to 45%, adjusting its mowing speed in the process. So even hilly areas are no problem for the robotic lawn mower. With the upgrade kit, the iMOW® EVO can tackle gradients as high as 60%.
Every STIHL iMOW® has a lithium-ion battery with smart charge management on board as an energy source. This feature means the iMOW® can charge its battery very quickly when it needs to rapidly resume an ongoing mowing process; during periods outside mowing plan activity, the battery is automatically charged slowly and gently.
The MY iMOW® app makes your iMOW® robotic lawn mower even smarter. Conveniently control your power tool from anywhere, rapidly retrieve mowing data in real time and much more – it’s all easy with the app for Android and iOS, or get started online straight away at: myimow.stihl.com.
The iMOW® models can also be connected to smart home devices, enabling convenient operation via voice control.
The new-generation iMOW® is equipped with a rain sensor that can interrupt the current mowing process until the rain passes.
The iMOW® operates at a maximum volume of 61 dB (A), so it won’t disturb you when you are spending time in the garden.
The new iMOW® generation uses LED strips at the front and rear to communicate its status. iMOW® EVO models also feature a matrix display, for even simpler communication by means of animated symbols.
The STIHL ¡MOW® as a smart product
With the MY iMOW® app and smart home integration, STIHL robotic lawn mowers offer smart, straightforward operation.
Operation via the MY iMOW® app
The MY iMOW® app makes your iMOW® robot mower even smarter. Conveniently control your device from anywhere, rapidly retrieve mowing data in real time and much more – it’s all easy with the app for Android and iOS. You can download the MY iMOW® robotic mower app from the App Store and Google Play or get started online straight away at: myimow.stihl.com.
Using the STIHL MY iMOW® app, you can individually set the mowing duration wherever you are, and create an agile mowing plan. You always have an overview of maintenance information, performance data and other important functions of the robotic lawn mower in real time.
For greater flexibility, the mowing plan can be individually adapted to seasonal growth phases. You can also use the app to view current weather forecasts and respond to these during active periods.
The new iMOW® robotic lawn mowers are equipped with numerous sensors that detect if the iMOW® is picked up, and immediately trigger an alarm. In addition to carrying detection, the new iMOW® models also have another safety feature: when the function is activated via the app, the iMOW® robotic mower is blocked as soon as the power tool is outside its defined home area. You will also be able to access information about the mowing performance of your iMOW® robotic lawn mower. The STIHL iMOW® app is available for Android and iOS smartphones, and also as a web app for your computer.
iMOW® and iMOW® EVO models can be connected to smart home devices such as Amazon Alexa, and then conveniently operated via voice control.
The new iMOW® generation offers connectivity via wi-fi and Bluetooth®. In the iMOW® EVO series, this is further expanded with additional mobile network connection.
Installation support
Through our specialist dealers
Nobody knows the iMOW® robotic lawn mower better than your authorised STIHL dealer. They will be happy to carry out installation for you. If you wish, they can also lay the boundary wire for you, place the docking station, create the mowing plan, and program all the necessary settings on the iMOW®. Get the personal advice you expect from a STIHL dealer, with guaranteed professional service right from the start.
Installing the iMOW® yourself
If you want to install the iMOW® yourself, our article includes short videos with the corresponding instructions. You will need boundary wire and fixing nails for installation. It is even possible to install the iMOW® robotic lawn mower on lawns of less than 100 m². We offer the AKM 100 small-area module for this purpose.
Installation accessories
Questions and answers
The iMOW® robotic lawn mower is suitable for small, medium-sized and large lawns, and can cover up to approximately 5,000 m² depending on the power tool type and lawn condition. If your lawn is awkwardly shaped, your specialist dealer will be happy to look at the area and find the best solution for you.
The iMOW® robotic laawn mower is a mulching mower and does not require a grass collection box. While it mows, it simultaneously shreds the grass clippings into small pieces with its mulching blade. This shredded material is distributed in the turf as a biological fertiliser, to support your lawn to grow greener and more densely.
Contact an authorised STIHL dealer in your area for personal advice. Once you have chosen the right iMOW® robotic lawn mower model, you can create a specialised plan for the area to be mowed. An experienced person will also be happy to help you set up the boundary wire and site the docking station in an ideal position. The expert can then work with you to program all the settings on the iMOW® and get it ready to go.
The iMOW® robotic lawn mower automatically creates the right mowing plan for optimal lawn quality. You can of course adapt this mowing plan to your preferences, and specify when the iMOW® robotic lawn mower should mow for example. The iMOW® robotic mower then automatically executes the individual mowing plan.
Bushes, beds, trees and other solid objects in the garden can be delineated with boundary wire from the outset. If the iMOW® encounters an unexpected obstacle, such as a garden chair, it will detect this by means of sensors under its hood, slow down its speed and gently bump into the obstacle.
iMOW® robotic mowers are equipped with various sensors. As soon as someone tries to lift the unit, it will stop.
Low edges that can be walked on (such as ground-level paving or paths) are integrated by the boundary wire in such a way that the iMOW® robotic mower cuts the lawn edge cleanly and fully. For hard edges (e.g. walls or tall terrace paving), the iMOW® robotic lawnmower is installed so that it runs as close to the edge as possible.
