010

Husqvarna Robotic Lawn Mower

Severity:

What Does This Error Mean?

Error 010 on a Husqvarna Automower means the tilt sensor has detected the mower upside down or tilted beyond its safe angle. This usually happens after picking the mower up. Set it back on level ground, press STOP then START to clear error 010.

Affected Models

  • Husqvarna Automower 305
  • Husqvarna Automower 315
  • Husqvarna Automower 315X
  • Husqvarna Automower 430X
  • Husqvarna Automower 450X

Common Causes

  • Mower lifted or tilted by the user (e.g., to inspect underneath)
  • Mower flipped on extreme slope (steeper than rated for the model)
  • Mower hit a hidden obstacle (tree root, large stone) and tipped
  • Tilt sensor false trigger from heavy vibration

How to Fix It

  1. Set the mower upright on level ground.

    Place the mower on flat lawn or paving. Make sure it is the right way up — wheels on the ground, top cover facing up.

  2. Press STOP to access the menu.

    Use the on-mower display, press the STOP button, then unlock with your PIN if required.

  3. Press START to resume operation.

    Once on level ground and unlocked, START clears error 010 and the mower resumes its schedule. The error is non-latching — it does not require a service reset.

  4. Investigate why the tilt happened.

    If the mower tipped on a slope, the slope may exceed the model's maximum gradient. Check the manual for your model's slope rating (typical models: 25%; X-models: 35–45%). Restrict the boundary to exclude excessive slopes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I just tip my Husqvarna Automower without seeing error 010?

No — any tilt past the safety threshold triggers error 010 immediately for safety. The blade disc disengages so you cannot be cut by accident. This is intentional behaviour, not a fault.

What slope is too steep for my Automower?

Standard models (305, 315) handle up to 25% gradient (about 14°). X-models (315X, 430X) handle up to 40% (about 22°). Steeper sections must be excluded with a guide wire — Automower will tip and trigger error 010.
