3. INSTALLATION
If the installation is done in a working area with a
steep slope (such as around a house on a hill), the
charging station should be placed in the area at the
bottom of the slope. This makes it easier for the lawn
mower to follow the guide wire to the charging station.
The charging station should not be placed on an
island as this limits the laying of the guide wire in an
optimal way. If the charging station has to be installed
on an island, the guide wire also has to be connected
to the island. See the picture opposite. Read more
about islands in the chapter

Connecting the transformer
Take the following into consideration when planning
where to place the transformer:
Close to the charging station
Protection from rain
Protection from direct sunlight
If the transformer is connected to an electrical socket
outdoors, this must be approved for outdoor use. The
low voltage cable to the transformer is 10 meters
long, and may not be shortened or extended.
It is possible to let the low voltage cable cross the
working area. The low voltage cable must be stapled
down or buried, and the cutting height should be such
that the blades on the blade disc can never come in
contact with the low voltage cable.
The transformer must be placed where it is well
ventilated and is not exposed to direct sunlight. The
transformer must be placed under a roof.
It is recommended to use an earth fault-breaker when
connecting the transformer to the wall socket.
For best performance, the transformer must not be
exposed to direct sunlight.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The low voltage cable must not be shortened
nor extended.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Place the low voltage cable so that the blades
on the blade disc can never come in contact
with it.
