A riding greensmower clean-up pass speed control system reduces the maximum ground speed if a clean-up pass control is actuated. The reduced maximum ground speed is adjustable using a display. The maximum ground speed is increased to the previous ground speed each time the plurality of grass cutting reels are raised after the clean-up pass.

A triplex greensmower open foot platform provides an opening in front of an operator seat providing visibility from the operator seat to a center reel cutting unit. The opening has sufficient dimensions for removal or installation of the center reel cutting unit or a grass catcher therethrough. A pair of platform sections provides a perimeter at least partially around the opening. Each of the platform sections including a footrest and a rearwardly extending coupling that is manually removable from the triplex greensmower. A flexible cover may be removably attached to the platform and extend over the opening and at least part of the center reel cutting unit.

An adaptive engine speed control system for a grass mowing machine having an internal combustion engine, a hydrostatic traction drive circuit and a hydraulic mowing circuit for operating a plurality of cutting units. A controller provides a traction feedback output signal if the grass mowing machine is moving at an actual ground speed that is below a pedal based desired ground speed, and uses the traction feedback output signal to command the internal combustion engine to an increased speed above a pedal based engine speed control range.

An adjustable lift rate system on a grass mowing machine such as a riding greensmower having a lift and lower circuit including a plurality of hydraulic lift cylinders to lift and lower a plurality of cutting units, and a controller providing a current to a proportional solenoid valve to bypass the hydraulic lift cylinders. An operator control may be used to adjust the current to the proportional solenoid valve to adjust the lift and lower rate of the cutting units.

A hydraulic leak detection system includes a leak detection switch responsive to a level of hydraulic fluid in a tank used by a hydraulic mowing circuit and a lift and lower circuit of a grass mowing machine. The system includes a controller that activates a warning indicator if the leak detection switch indicates the level of hydraulic fluid in the tank is low, but allows the hydraulic mowing circuit and the lift and lower circuit to continue operating until the lift and lower circuit reaches a fully raised position. A solenoid valve may control the level of hydraulic fluid in the tank based on temperature of the hydraulic fluid.

Disclosed is a robot lawnmower including a body frame, a main wheel disposed on both sides of the body frame, a motor to drive the main wheel, a first edge blade provided in a region of the body frame corresponding to the main wheel and coupled to be rotatable with respect to the body frame by receiving a driving force of the motor, and a second edge blade disposed between the body frame and the main wheel to rotate together with the main wheel and cut a grass by a relative rotation of the first edge blade and the main wheel.

The invention relates to a lawn maintenance machine comprising a container (10) and a movable wall (40), the movable wall (40) dividing the container (10) to a first storage (20) having a first length in a longitudinal direction, and a second storage (30) having a second length in the longitudinal direction, wherein the second storage (30) is placed rearward from the first storage (20), the lawn maintenance machine further comprising an actuator arrangement configured to move the movable wall (40) forward and backward in the longitudinal direction in order to increase and decrease, respectively, the volume of the second storage (30). The invention further relates to a method for taking care of a lawn or a turf. This invention further relates to a lawn maintenance method and a lawn maintenance system.
