Slope Mowers For Sale In Australia
You may be confused to find percentage gauges when looking for a robotic lawn mower for steep slopes. It’s common to see angles and degrees, but mower manufacturers tend to add in grade percentages. Just so you’re fully clarified, the slope grade is simply the percentage you get when dividing the vertical rise by the horizontal run.
For instance, a sloped lawn that’s 4 feet tall (y) and 8 feet wide (x) is graded 50% (percentage of y/x). For the angle, you divide y by x, then multiply it by tan-1. Using the previous example, we get a 26.6° angle. You can use an inclination or slope calculator to test it out yourself.
When it comes to handling backyard slopes, many robot lawn mowers fall short. However, at Roboworld, we’ve got a vast range of mowers built for complex spaces. Here are just a few of the robotic lawn mowers we supply for slopes of over 50% or close to 27°.
