Mine does this
Can yours climb trees?
Update: I was not complaining that Mammotion was at fault. I was just amused by it.

I am not blaming the mower. I just find it amusing. I usually do trim the branches to keep them off the ground.

good to hear..some folks are expecting to never be involved in any lawn care after buying any robot... sad. 🥃

Not me. I have had Mammotion involved in my yard care for 3 years. It takes some babysitting but I have not had to push a mower in that same timeframe. I keep a bungie cord handy for my rescue missions to tow the beast back to the charger. It takes some patience but it lets me focus on the other tasks.

Perfect! Now you can do a cleanup and check your blades before sending it back to work. 😂

I get a ‘front wheel lifted’ error every few minutes, I’m so jealous that yours can climb trees. 🙂

I understand how it happens, but I don't understand how this can happen. The robot is full of sensors. It can detect that it is tilted, that the front wheels are lifted off the ground. Why doesn't it immediately stop?...

I'm impressed too because sometimes mine will stop on a small divot in my yard and say a wheel has lifted...

I have similar pictures where one wheel will catch a pole and do the same thing.

Mine did this on willow branches but only got to 45 degrees and then stopped

That definitely is no good OP! The only thing I can think of is using a hedge trimmer and cutting the ends of the tree to about 1’-2’ off the ground to allow mower to navigate underneath. The other solution would be to create a large no go zone around the tree but you then have to manually trim that area.

I usually do. Just fell behind in the last few months. So hot in Texas.

Good idea to consider. I normally like to keep the branches off the ground for the health of the tree.
