3. INSTALLATION
Boundaries within the working area
Use the boundary wire to demarcate areas inside the
working area by creating islands around obstacles
that can not withstand a collision, for example, flower
beds and fountains. Run the cable out to the area,
route it around the area to be demarcated and then
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 wire to and from the
island are close together, the mower can drive over
the wire.
Obstacles that can withstand a collision, for example,
trees or bushes higher than 6" (15 cm), do not need to
be demarcated by the boundary wire. Automower™
will turn when it collides with this type of obstacle.
However, for the most gentle and silent operation, it is
preferable to demarcate all fixed objects in and around
the working area.
Obstacles that slope slightly, for example, stones or
large trees with raised roots, should be demarcated
or removed. Automower™ can otherwise slide up
onto this kind of obstacle causing the blades to be
damaged.
Secondary areas
It is recommended to create a secondary area when
the working area is made up of two areas that are
joined by a passage where the distance between the
boundary wires is less than 24" (60 cm). Run the
boundary wire then around the secondary area so
that it forms an island outside of the main area.
Automower™ must be moved manually between the
main and secondary areas. Use the MAN operating
mode when Automower™ shall mow a secondary
area.
Instead of creating an island with the existing
boundary wire, a secondary area generator can
ideally be used. A secondary area generator can be
purchased as an accessory. Contact your dealer for
further information.
