Description
The MINI handles the same slopes as the larger LUBA, just on a smaller area—and it often mows more frequently. If you mow 400 to 600 m² three times a week, you quickly reach 300 to 400 motor minutes per week. This disc is a direct replacement for LUBA MINI AWD 800, 1500, LiDAR and LUBA MINI 2 AWD: balanced, with pre-assembled stainless steel blades, and can be installed without an adapter.
Smaller robot, higher cadence
The MINI is designed for 800 to 1,500 m², but it is rarely used that way. In practice, it mows smaller gardens much more often—many users run three passes per week because the robot is already there and works quietly.
For the blades, it’s not the garden size that matters, but the operating time. A MINI for 450 m² with three passes weekly collects more engine hours over a season than some larger mowers that tackle a big area just once per week.
Mammotion lists three months as a guideline for blade replacement in the manual. That’s realistic—at high cadence, sooner; on flat ground and with dry grass, sometimes later.

LUBA MINI or a larger LUBA?
“luba mini vs luba 2” is one of the most common search queries about Mammotion. If you’re still deciding whether to buy or want to check which device is in the shed:
Swapping on the MINI
- Switch off the MINI; don’t just put it on pause.
- Put on gloves and turn the device onto its side.
- Loosen the accumulated grass felt— with all-wheel drive, more tends to collect under the disc than with two-wheel mowers.
- Remove the old disc, fit the new one, and tighten the screws evenly.
- Turn the disc by hand and briefly tap each blade— it must be able to rotate freely around its screw.
If a blade jams, its screw is tightened too much. This is the most common installation mistake and exactly the cause of the uneven running reported in forums.

6, 7, or 9 blades on the MINI
With the MINI, the mowing schedule matters. If you mow three times a week, you’re only ever cutting off short tips anyway—then a denser blade setup provides more benefit than occasional passes through tall grass.
6 blades – factory setup with hub cover
The direct replacement for the original cutting disc. Same running behavior, same battery runtime, no adjustment needed—the right choice if you simply want to replace the worn disc.
Only here is a protective disc seated in the middle on the disc; with 7 and 9 blades it is omitted. Its benefit is especially noticeable with the MINI: the device turns constantly on a small area, and with every change of direction, cuttings end up under the chassis. Without a cover, they move toward the blade mounting area and settle there—with it, they slide further outward.
If you mow three times a week, you inevitably also hit days with dew or residual moisture. That’s exactly when it’s determined whether you need to turn the robot around in between and clear the mowing area.
7 blades – with three passes per week
Exactly the configuration for the typical MINI usage pattern: mow frequently, with little material per run. More cuts per revolution create a more even result without the blades noticeably dulling faster.
In intricate gardens with lots of turning maneuvers, the difference is most clearly noticeable.
What’s omitted here: the central protective cutting disc of the 6-blade version. On flat, dry areas, it doesn’t matter. But if you run the MINI early in the morning while there’s dew, you’re better off choosing the 6-blade variant.
9 blades – finely cut ornamental lawn
The densest option is worth it if the lawn stays short and the MINI drives almost every day. Individual blades that remain standing disappear, and the cut pattern looks more closed.
For overgrowth or tall grass, it’s the wrong choice—nine narrow cutting edges dull faster than they provide any benefit.
How you can tell when blades are worn
Buy blades individually
With three passes per week, Mammotion estimates around three months as a guideline for blade replacement—the mowing disc itself lasts significantly longer. With the 60 cm replacement blades set including screws, you’ll have supplies ready for several seasons instead of waiting for a delivery at the next change.
