3. Installation

If the working area borders against a flat path or the like that lies level with the lawn, it is possible to allow the Automower to run a little over the path. The boundary wire should then be laid 4" from the edge of the path.

When the working area is divided by a flat slab path that is level with the lawn, it is possible to allow the Automower to run over the path. It can be an advantage to lay the boundary wire under the slabs. The boundary wire can also be laid in the joint between the slabs.

Note! The Automower must never run over a gravel path or similar material, which can damage the blades.

If the working area borders against, for example, pools of water the boundary wire should be supplemented with a fence or the like. The height must then be at least 6". This will prevent the Automower, under any circumstances, coming outside of the working area.

When Automower searches for the charging station or follows the loop according to the function Follow loop (3-2)(see page 53), it runs along the side of the boundary wire at a specific distance. The Corridor width (3-2-3)function determines the distance from the boundary wire that the mower shall run. It is recommended to state as high a Corridor width value as possible. A high Corridor width value reduces the risk of tracks forming. For more information about Corridor width (3-2-3), see page 56.

In exceptional cases Automower can be set to straddle the boundary wire, that is to say, half the mower inside the loop and the other half outside. The boundary wire must then be kept at a distance of about 16" from all the boundaries of the working area and from the edges of a passage.
