Planning and Laying the Boundary Line
Laying Boundary Lines
In order to make the Robot Mower mow within the desired
area – and only that area – you need to mark the area by means
of boundary wiring. Remove all foreign objects, rocks, roots,
etc. that may interfere with the Robot Mower’s operation in the
mowing area. Large objects such as trees, swings sets, ponds
should be encircled by the boundary line. The boundary wire
line needs to be laid out in a continuous line (see Figure 1).
Route the boundary line around objects using a minimum of
100° angles (135° angles are recommended). Keep the line at
least 12” from the lawn’s edge and from any object (see Figure
1). Keep the boundary line at least 6.5 feet (78”) wide at the
narrowest part of the lawn. Do not allow the boundary wire to
cross itself.
The boundary line should be placed at the root level of the grass
(see Figure 2). Secure the boundary line into the ground and
anchor with the boundary stakes. Place a stake approximately
every 3 feet.
NOTE: The Robot Mower will nd it difcult to work on grades
greater than 30°. On slopes steeper than 30° the robot’s sensor
will shut the mower off.
