The iMOW® 5 is part of the latest generation of iMOW® robotic mowers from STIHL. Designed for home gardens, these robotic mowers mow your lawn automatically so you don’t have to, giving you a beautiful green lawn, without even lifting a finger. Capable of cutting lawns of up to 1,500 m2 and gradients of up to 40%, the iMOW® is powered by a high-performance lithium-ion battery for efficient and continuous work over long working periods.
The iMOW® is controlled using the MY iMOW® app which controls all of the functions for the robotic mower, such as sending it out to mow, returning it to the dock, changing the mowing plan, adjusting the cutting height or checking the current status of the iMOW®. The robotic mower connects to the MY iMOW® app via your home WiFi network if this reaches your garden or via a Bluetooth connection when you are close to the machine.
The iMOW® is installed by laying or burying a thin wire around the outer edge of your lawn and around obstacles in your garden, such as shrubs, trees, flower beds or water features. Then, a second wire in the centre of your lawn helps the iMOW® to travel home to charge. If the iMOW® comes across objects in the mowing area then it’s sensors will activate, causing it to slow down, softly bump into it and then go off into another direction. You can install you iMOW® yourself via the MY iMOW® app, which provides guided instructions on how to complete the install. You can also follow our playlist on how to install the iMOW® too! If installing this way, you will need the appropriate installation kit (sold separately) for your garden size in order to install the iMOW®. For complex gardens with multiple mowing plans, you can request for your local STIHL Approved Dealer to install the iMOW®. To do so, please get in touch with your local STIHL Approved Dealer directly.

Features
The pictures shown are sample photos. The actual appearance of the equipment features and their specific attachment to the product may differ from the pictorial representations, but will have the same functionality.
OPTIMUM MOWING RESULT. <br />High rotational speed and 3 free-swinging, extra-sharp blades provide a cleanly cut lawn every time. The direction of rotation is automatically alternated on a regular basis, extending the life of the blades.
THE APP MAKES IT EASY. You can adjust the cutting height of your robotic lawnmower directly via the app.
QUICK AND EASY CHANGEOVER. <br />No tools are required for changing the blades of the iMOW, so it's easy to replace blades when necessary. For an even cut, we recommend changing all three blades at once when replacing a blunt or damaged blade.
OPTIMAL CONTROL. <br />Connectivity functions mean you can control your robotic mower via the app, using Wi-Fi or Bluetooth® connections. On EVO models, you can also connect the app to the robotic mower via a mobile network.
MOW THE LAWN VIA REMOTE CONTROL. <br />You can check the status and current tasks of the iMOW from anywhere via the MY iMOW® app. App capabilities include creating an interactive mowing plan, viewing the current location of your iMOW, and setting your mowing zones. You can also change other settings in the app, such as the cutting height.
PRECISE WORK. <br />If your garden has complex, awkwardly shaped areas or lots of close-together obstacles you can simplify the mowing plan of the iMOW by defining starting points and specifying preferred mowing zones. This makes work more efficient and faster.
EXTENDED PROTECTION. <br />If the iMOW is lifted up, or if the tilt or movement of the power tool changes in an unusual way (carrying detection), an alarm will be triggered. This switches off automatically when the robot mower is set down again. In addition, the robot automatically locks its control functions if it is removed from the home area.
MOW ON A WEATHER-DEPENDENT BASIS. <br />Thanks to its rain sensor, your iMOW® robotic mower is able to decide whether or not to mow based on the weather. In the settings, you can decide how the robotic lawn mower reacts to rain.
