Friendly Robotics Robomow RL1000 - Figure 1.13 - Perimeter Wire Setup Distances for Obstacles

Trees large enough to allow
Robomow to bump into do not
require a perimeter wire around it
Small tree, must
exclude with perimeter
wire
Tree too close to
perimeter, less than 4
feet (1.2m), loop out with
perimeter wire
Minimum distance
between obstacle wire
and perimeter wire = 5
feet (1.5 m)
Greater than 3 feet
(0.9 m)
Figure 1.13 – Perimeter Wire Setup Distances for Obstacles
The Robomow can freely move across this section, but will still
recognize the perimeter island. By allowing this, multiple obstacles in a
given lawn will have little effect on free movement of the Robomow or
its’ efficiency.
Large trees,
OK to be treated
as an obstacle
and not excluded
with the perimeter
wire. Be sure they
are at least 4 feet
(1.2m) from the
p
erimeter.
Zone one
Zone two
Width must be greater than
5.5 feet (1.7 m), measured from
perimeter wire to perimeter wire
3 feet (0.9m)
wide
Distance greater than
5 feet (1.5 m)
Narrow passes should
be at least 5.5 feet
(1.7m) between wires
Closer than 4 feet (1.2 m)
to perimeter wire,
loop out
