12.14 Sloping terrain along the 
perimeter wire
In order for the robotic mower to 
automatically mow a slope in the mowing 
area (incline up to 15°) without any trouble, 
the perimeter wire must be installed in the 
slope with a minimum clearance to the 
edge of the slope.
A clearance of at least 100 cm must be 
observed for water features and sudden 
drops like edges and steps.
Slope with an incline of 5° - 15°:
If there is a slope with an incline of 5° - 15° 
in the mowing area, the perimeter wire can 
be routed past the top edge of the slope in 
the slope as shown. The minimum 
clearance (0,5 m) from the top edge of the 
slope to the perimeter wire must be taken 
into account for trouble-free operation of 
the robotic mower.
Slope with an incline > 15°:
If there is a slope with an incline > 15° on 
which a perimeter wire is to be installed in 
the mowing area, it is recommended that 
the perimeter wire (1) be routed in the flat 
area before the top edge of the slope. The 
top edge and area of the slope are not 
mown.
12.15 Installing reserve wire
Reserve wire installed at regular intervals 
makes it easier to make any necessary 
corrections such as subsequently 
changing the position of the docking 
station or the routing of the perimeter wire.
In particular, reserve wire should be 
installed near difficult passages.
Route perimeter wire (1) as illustrated 
between 2 fixing pins spaced approx. 1 m 
apart. Attach the reserve wire to the 
ground in the centre using a further fixing 
pin.
12.16 Using wire connectors
In order to extend the perimeter wire or to 
connect loose wire ends, only the gel-filled 
wire connectors available as accessories 
may be used. They prevent premature 
wear (e.g. corrosion of the wire ends) and 
ensure optimal connections.
Make a note of the positions of the wire 
connectors on the sketch of the mowing 
area. (Ö 12.2)
Note:
For a robust installation, it is 
recommended to route the 
perimeter wire on a maximum slope 
of 10° (17%). The wire can be 
routed on a slope of 15° (27%), 
however this can significantly 
increase the effort and level of 
adjustment involved in routing the 
wire. Slopes should also always be 
noted in garden sketches.
