Robomow RK1000: Blade blocked / motor overload

What this fault means

Cutting load or debris prevents normal blade operation.

Safety: Stop the mower and follow the manufacturer safety instructions before physical inspection.

Step-by-step checks

1. Power off before underside inspection.
2. Clear packed grass/string and inspect the blade area.
3. Verify the blade mechanism is not bent or seized.
4. Raise cutting height for long grass.
5. Persistent overload on a free blade requires motor/driver diagnosis.
