The last forum update indicated “Tow Mode” would be released with an update at the end of April 2025.
What is the status of this rollout?
Is there anyway to utilize the SAM with a pull behind aerator via a work plan without jacknifing the unit?

It became April-May a few weeks ago. I took that to mean Release 7 (I think it’s 7?) will be later this month. I haven’t seen an update since.
I understand that some people have tried creating some kind of patrol path to tow a lawn tool with the SAM. I haven’t used the SAM, but I guess you can do that? I never heard back if it worked.
I would not recommend towing automated with any module until tow mode is released. AFAIK, still release 7 which should be in the next few weeks.
I wouldn’t tow with any path drawn by the automation, just one I mapped manually towing the tool around, if there is such a thing that’s one-way. The automated mowing lines, for example, are not going to be compatible – not going to happen, don’t do it. Deadends won’t work because they reverse.
A hack with a snakey Pathway between two Areas? Maybe, BUT the rover backs up sometimes during its operation making even a slight turn, and who knows what that will do.
I agree with Bryan - I’d just wait for Tow Mode, it’s coming.
Thank you for your interest in Tow Mode! It’s currently expected to be included in the next update, provided everything goes smoothly.
We appreciate your patience and support — stay tuned for upcoming releases!
