Best Position of the Perimeter Wire
The perimeter wire must be laid to ensure:
• The creation of a closed loop around the working area of the robotic lawn mower. Only the original perimeter wire must be used. It is specially designed to resist
moisture from the soil, which could otherwise easily damage the conductors.
• The total length of the perimeter wire must not exceed 300 metres.
Depending on what the working area is adjacent to, the perimeter wire must be laid at different distances from obstacles. The fi gure below shows how the perimeter
wire must be laid around the working area and around obstacles. Use the supplied gauge to determine the correct distances (see “List of Parts” on page 8).
Working Area Boundaries
If a high obstacle, such as a wall or fence, encloses the working area, the perimeter wire should be placed 30 cm from the
obstacle. This prevents collisions between the robotic lawn mower and the obstacle and reduces wear on its body.
An approximately 20 cm wide area around a solid obstacle will not be mowed.
If the working area borders a small trench, such as a fl ower bed or a small elevation, or a low kerb (3–5 cm), the perimeter
wire should be laid 20 cm inside the working area. This prevents wheels from running into the trench or onto the kerb.
An approximately 12 cm wide area along the trench/kerb will not be mowed.
If the working area borders a paved or similar surface that is at lawn level, the robotic lawn mower can be allowed to run
partially over it. The perimeter wire should then be laid 5 cm from the edge of the paved area.
All grass along the pavement will be cut.
If the working area is divided by a paved area that is at lawn level, it is possible to let the robotic lawn mower run over it. It
may be advantageous to store the perimeter wire under the tiles. The perimeter wire can also be laid in the joints between
the tiles. Make sure that the tiles are level with the lawn to avoid excessive wear on the robotic lawn mower.
Note: The robotic lawn mower should never run over gravel, mulch or similar material that could damage its blades.
