3.4 Charging the battery

When the charging station is connected, it is possible to

charge the robotic lawnmower. Set the main switch to

position

Place the robotic lawnmower in the charging station

while the boundary and guide wires are being laid.

If the battery is flat, it takes around 80 to 100 minutes to

fully charge it.

WARNING: Only charge the robotic lawnmower

using a charging station which is intended for it.

Incorrect use may result in electric shock,

overheating or leakage of corrosive liquid from

the battery. In the event of leakage of electrolyte

flush with water and seek medical help if it

comes in contact with the eyes etc.

Note: The robotic lawnmower cannot be used before the

installation is complete.

3.5 Boundary wire

The boundary wire can be installed in the following

ways:

• Secure the wire to the ground with pegs.

Staple down the boundary wire if you want to make

adjustments to the boundary loop during the first few

weeks of operation. After a few weeks the grass will

have grown over the wire making it no longer visible.

Use a hammer/plastic mallet and pegs.

• Bury the wire.

Bury the boundary wire if you want to dethatch or

aerate the lawn. If necessary, both methods can be

combined so one part of the boundary wire is

stapled down and the other is buried. The wire can

be buried for instance using an edge cutter or a

straight spade. Make sure to lay the boundary wire

at least 1 cm and a maximum of 20 cm in the

ground.

3.5.1 Plan where to lay the boundary wire

The boundary wire must be laid so that:

• The wire forms a loop around the working area. Use

original boundary wire. It is specially designed to

resist dampness from the soil.

• The robotic lawnmower is never more than 35 m

from the wire at any point in the working area.

• The wire is no more than 800 m long.

• About 20 cm of extra wire is available to which the

guide wire will be connected later. See

Laying the

boundary wire on page 17

The illustration below shows how the boundary wire

must be laid around the working area and around

obstacles. Use the supplied measurement gauge to

obtain the correct distance. See

3.5.2 Working area boundaries

Depending on what the working area is adjacent to, the

boundary wire must be laid at different distances from

obstacles.

If a high obstacle (5 cm or more), for example a wall or

fence, borders the working area, the boundary wire

should be laid 35 cm from the obstacle. This will prevent

the robotic lawnmower from colliding with the obstacle

and reduce body wear. About 20 cm of the lawn around

the fixed obstacle will not be mown.

> 5 cm / 2"

If the working area borders a small ditch, a flower bed or

a small elevation, for example a low kerbstone (1-5 cm),

the boundary wire should be laid 30 cm inside the

working area. This prevents the wheels from driving into

the ditch or up onto the kerbstone which might be lead
