3.2 Installation of the charging
station
Ideal position of the charging station
For examples of good positioning of the charging
station, see 7. Garden example on page 56.
If you are going to install a guide wire, read 3.8
Installation of the guide wire, see page 30, before
choosing the position of the charging station.
The charging station must be positioned with a great
deal of free area in front of it (at least 3 metres). It
should also be positioned centrally in the working
area so that Automower
®
can easily find the charging
station and quickly reach all parts of the working area.
It is a good idea to place the charging station in the
shadow. The battery is spared if it is charged in the
lowest possible ambient temperature.
The charging station must be positioned on relatively
level ground. The height difference must not differ
more than 5 cm between the front and rear of the
charging station.
The charging station must not be positioned so that
its plate bends.
