Husqvarna Automower® 520 EPOS®

Commercial-grade robotic mower with wire-free EPOS® virtual boundaries and fleet control — designed for systematic mowing and consistent results.

Up to 5,000 m² (±20)
Virtual wire boundary
Slopes up to 45% (inside)
App: Fleet Services + Automower® Connect
EPOS® RS5 reference station required
Wire-free, systematic mowing for professional sites — flexible zones, clean edges, and easy changes.

Automower® 520 EPOS® is built for commercial fleet use. Using Husqvarna EPOS® (satellite-based RTK-GNSS), you set virtual boundaries instead of installing perimeter wire — ideal when you want to adjust areas seasonally, protect new seeding, or manage multiple lawns from one dashboard.

It navigates narrow passages, delivers consistent cutting patterns (lines, checkerboard and more), and is designed to work 24/7 through the growing season with normal cleaning and blade changes.

Key features & benefits

  • EPOS® wire-free technology (virtual boundaries) with ~2 cm accuracy for robust, flexible installations.
  • Systematic mowing with selectable patterns (parallel lines / diamonds / triangles / checkerboard).
  • Multiple work areas with individual schedules, cutting heights and patterns per area.
  • Temporary stay-out zones for events, repairs, reseeding, or construction work.
  • Husqvarna Fleet Services™ for monitoring, control and analytics across your whole fleet.
  • EPOS® guidance calculates efficient routes to and from the docking point.
  • Warning lights (pulsating/solid) for visibility during night operation.
  • Electric cutting height adjustment via app for quick on-site changes.
  • 5-blade cutting disc (commercial 500-series) for higher cutting performance.
  • FOTA updates (firmware over the air) via Fleet Services.
  • Weather timer adjusts runtime to growth rate to reduce wear.
  • GPS theft protection with GeoFence alerts.
This is a fully wire-free EPOS® model (virtual boundary only) — not a hybrid/wired mower.

Installation and what you need

Wire-free only (EPOS® virtual boundaries)
  • No perimeter wire — boundaries, transport paths, work areas and stay-out zones are set in the app.
  • EPOS® RS5 Reference Station is required for operation (not included).
  • Best results come from a clear view of the sky across the mowing area for stable satellite positioning.
  • Designed for professional remote handling through Husqvarna Fleet Services™.
If your site has multiple scattered lawns, EPOS® makes it easy to tailor settings per area and adjust boundaries without re-laying wire.

FAQs

Is Automower® 520 EPOS® wire-free, hybrid or wired?
It is fully wire-free using EPOS® virtual boundaries (boundary type: Virtual wire). It is not a hybrid or traditional wired model.
Do I need an EPOS® reference station?
Yes — this model requires the EPOS® RS5 Reference Station for operation. It is not included.
What area size and slopes is it designed for?
Working area capacity is 5,000 m² (±20). Maximum slope performance is 45% inside the installation and 15% at the boundary.
How does fleet control work?
It supports Husqvarna Fleet Services™ (plus Automower® Connect) for monitoring, control and analysis from a smartphone, tablet, or computer — useful for managing multiple machines and sites.
Can I set zones and no-mow areas?
Yes. You can define several work areas with different settings and create temporary stay-out zones (e.g., events, reseeding, construction work) directly in the EPOS® map.
Is it suitable for night operation?
It includes warning lights (pulsating or solid) to create awareness during operation at night. As with any mower, consider site access, local noise considerations, and wildlife activity.

Quick comparison

Automower® 520 EPOS®: Fully wire-free
  • Boundary type: Virtual wire only.
  • Fast boundary changes, multiple work areas, and temporary stay-out zones in-app.
  • Requires EPOS® RS5 reference station.
Fully wired models: Physical wire
  • Boundary is set by wire — changes typically mean moving/re-laying cable.
  • Often best when you prefer a fixed perimeter or have site constraints for satellite positioning.
