Via the app , we can manage when the robotic lawnmower should run or pause . During organised events , for example , we can easily adapt the mowing work to the respective situation - very practical and userfriendly .”
Husqvarna ’ s virtual boundary EPOS technology is a high-precision satellite navigation system that delivers an accuracy of 2-3 centimetres , giving the user a new level of flexibility and offers a robust and flexible installation on areas with an open sky . The virtual boundaries also enable aerating and scarifying without breaking physical wires and the user can change boundaries and transport paths from their phone . With the Precise
Area Management feature , several work areas can be defined with different timers and settings , including cutting height . It also makes it possible to create temporary stay out zones .
Kevin Ashmore , UK Manager of Husqvarna Professional commented : “ We are extremely proud to bring the new Husqvarna Automower ® 550 EPOS robotic mower to the market . Utilising Husqvarna ’ s EPOS technology , it offers a sustainable and costefficient solution that simplifies maintaining large green spaces . Being battery powered it emits no fumes and the light weight of the
mower and low electric energy consumption reduce its carbon footprint .”
Operating with low noise levels , it is suitable for environments that require some degree of noise control - for example at golf courses , football stadiums or in urban areas such as city parks . For a convenient user interaction , as well as easy maintenance and handling , it is possible to monitor and control Husqvarna Automower ® 550 EPOS through the Automower ® Connect and Husqvarna Fleet Services™ apps .
