Use the exact error text shown by the mower or app. Similar wording across mower generations does not always mean the same component has failed.
Start with these checks
- Isolate the mower before inspecting the cutting system.
- Clear packed grass and debris from the cutting-disc area.
- Inspect blades and disc for visible damage.
- If the cutting system is clear but the fault persists, run the exact model diagnosis.
- Switch off and safely isolate the mower.
- Inspect the blade disc/cutting area for packed grass or foreign objects.
Stop if: the mower has damaged wiring, a swollen/damaged battery, severe vibration, water inside electrical areas, or would require opening sealed electronics.
Likely causes
Blocked cutting disc, worn cutting components, motor wiring or cutting-motor failure.
Replacement parts
Do not order a component from the symptom alone. Run the model-specific diagnosis first so the failed system can be narrowed down before checking the European parts routes.
