► Route the perimeter wire (1) away from the
edge toward the restricted area. Make sure
that the following dimensions are maintained
for the restricted area:
–
Minimum distance to other perimeter wires
a = 55 cm
–
Wire distance b = 37 cm (length: 1x iMOW
®
Ruler) (for water areas and drop-off edges,
b = 1 m)
–
Minimum diameter of the restricted
area: 74 cm
► Route the perimeter wire (1) around the area
to be blocked off.
► Route the perimeter wire (1) parallel and close
together back to the edge without the perime‐
ter wires crossing each other.
8.9 Fixed obstacle
A fixed obstacle within the mowing area does not
have to be blocked off by a restricted area if the
obstacle is at least 10 cm high. The obstacle is
identified by the ultrasound sensors and the
bump sensor.
► A fixed obstacle with a minimum height of
a = 10 cm does not need to be blocked off.
8.10 Confined section
The robot mower navigates all confined areas,
provided that a minimum width (a) is maintained
between the perimeter wires (1).
► Route the perimeter wire (1) as illustrated and
make sure that the following dimensions have
been maintained:
–
Minimum distance between the perimeter
wires (1) in the confined section: a = 2 m
–
If the confined section is restricted by side
obstacles: Include an additional distance of
b = 37 cm (length: 1x iMOW
®
Ruler)
► If the minimum distance a = 2 m between the
perimeter wires (1) cannot be maintained:
Route a guide wire through the middle of the
confined section.
Confined section with guide wire
A guide wire (2) directs the robot mower through
the confined area, provided that a minimum
width (a) is maintained between the perimeter
wires (1).
On completing commissioning, it is mandatory to
place a starting point (3) behind the confined
section and the starting point's approach fre‐
quency. Otherwise, the robotic mower will not
