Zusammenfassung:	A tool device, such as a lawnmower, or a steerable-wheel assembly therefor may include a frame, a walking element, a drive motor, and a steerable-wheel assembly (SWA). The walking element may be coupled to the frame. The drive motor may selectively power the walking element. The SWA may be attached to the frame apart from the walking element. The SWA may include a caster connector pivotably mounted to the frame to rotate about a pivot axis, a steerable wheel rotatably coupled to the caster connector, a detectable magnet fixed to the caster connector to pivot therewith about the pivot axis, and an encoder including a magnetic sensor fixed to the frame apart from the caster connector to detect a pivotable position of the detectable magnet.
