2.2 How Robomow Works for You
• First, you need to install a perimeter wire around the entire lawn
and around protected areas within the lawn area.
• The Perimeter Wire sets the boundaries for Robomow. The
Perimeter Wire is laid around the edges of the lawn and around
trees, plants, ponds and objects that you want to prevent
Robomow to run into.
• If the supplied wire is not sufcient, more wire can be purchased
and spliced with a supplied connector to the existing wire.
• Small pegs are used to fasten the Perimeter Wire into the
ground, below grass level.
• The Perimeter Wire will gradually disappear under the growth
of new grass until it will be invisible.
• The Base Station is placed along the Perimeter Wire. It performs
two basic functions:
- Generate a signal along the Perimeter Wire.
- Charge Robomow’s batteries.
• The Power Box is connected between the Base Station and a
230V / 120V wall socket, using a 15m (50 ft.) long low voltage
cable.
• After having completed the installation of the Perimeter Wire, Base Station, and the Power Box, and performing
the One-Time Setup [needs to be performed before operating Robomow for the rst time – detailed
instructions are in the following chapters], Robomow will do all the mowing for you for during the entire season!
• Robomow is a robotic lawn mower that is powered by a maintenance-free battery. It leaves its Base Station at
scheduled mowing times. Robomow mows the lawn and then drives back to the Base Station to be charged and
ready for its next scheduled mowing.
• As soon as Robomow departs for mowing, the Base Station automatically triggers a special signal. This signal
creates a virtual wall, visible only to Robomow. This signal keeps Robomow within the lawn boundaries, and
prevents it from entering areas it was intended to skip or protect.
