3. INSTALLATION
Boundaries within the working area
Use the boundary wire to demarcate areas inside the
working area by creating islands around obstacles
which cannot withstand a collision, for example,
flowerbeds, bushes and fountains. Lay the wire up to
and around the area to be demarcated, and then
return it back along the same route. If staples are
used, the wire should be laid under the same staple
on the return route. When the boundary wires to and
from the island are laid close together, the robotic
lawnmower can drive over the wire.
Obstacles that can withstand a collision, for example,
trees and bushes higher than 6” (15 cm), do not need
to be demarcated by the boundary wire. The robotic
lawnmower will turn around when it collides with this
type of obstacle.
To achieve careful and silent operation, it is
recommended to isolate all fixed objects in and
around the working area.
The boundary wire may not be crossed on its way to
and from an island.
Obstacles that slope slightly, for example, stones or large
trees with raised roots, must be isolated or removed.
Otherwise the robotic lawnmower can slide up onto this
kind of obstacle causing the blades to be damaged.
Secondary areas
If the working area consists of two areas which the
robotic lawnmower has difficulty travelling between, it
is recommended to set up a secondary area.
Instances of this are 25% slopes or a passage that is
narrower than 24” (60 cm). Lay the boundary wire
then around the secondary area so that it forms an
island outside of the main area.
The robotic lawnmower must be moved manually
between the main and secondary area when the lawn
in the secondary area has to be cut. The MAN
operation mode must be used as the robotic
lawnmower cannot travel on its own from the
secondary area to the charging station. See
5.1 Operation selection on page 40. In this mode, the
robotic lawnmower will never look for the charging
station but will mow until the battery runs out. When the
battery is flat, the robotic lawnmower will stop and the
Needs manual charging message will appear in the
display. Then place the robotic lawnmower in the
charging station to charge the battery. If the main
working area has to be cut after charging, it is
appropriate to switch the operation mode to Auto before
placing the robotic lawnmower in the charging station.
Passages when mowing
Long and narrow passages and areas narrower than
7-7 ft (1.5 - 2 m) should be avoided. When the robotic
lawnmower mows, there is a risk that it travels around
in the passage or area for a period of time. The lawn
will then look flattened.
