3. INSTALLATION
Passages when mowing
Long narrow passages and areas, narrower than
1.5 - 2 metres, should be avoided. When Automower
mows there is a risk that it runs around in the passage
or area for a too long a period. The lawn will then look
flattened.
Passages when searching for the charging station
The distance between the boundary wires in a
passage must be at least 3 metres in order for
Automower to follow the boundary wire through the
passage without the need of changing the mower's
default settings. When the distance is less than
3 metres, there are two options available that permit
Automower to run through the passage.
1. Install a guide wire.
When the distance between the boundary wires
is less than 3 metres, it is recommended to install
a guide wire through the passage. For more
information about the guide wire, see 3.8
Installation of the guide wire on page 33.
Usually the installation of the guide wire is the best
solution with narrow passages.
The narrowest passage that Automower can run
through with the help of a guide wire is 60 cm
between the boundary wires.
2. Change the Corridor width setting (3-2-3).
When the distance between the boundary wires in
a narrow passage is more than 2 metres it is
possible for Automower to run through the
passage if a low value is set for the Corridor width
(3-2-3) function (see page 54). However, a low
value involves a large risk of tracks forming along
the entire boundary wire.
The transition between a large area and a passage
should be, if possible, designed like a funnel, with
rounded corners, to make it easier for Automower to
enter the passage.
Slopes
The boundary wire can be laid across a slope that
slants less than 10 %.
