Husqvarna 260 ACX manual Placement and connection of the guide wire

3.INSTALLATION

The route to a remote area is long or

complicated.

When Automower® shall follow the boundary wire to or from a remote area and the route along the boundary wire to the area is long or complicated.

The boundary wire runs across a long slope (steeper than 10 %).

When Automower® follows the boundary wire across a slope (steeper than 10 %) the mower must compensate for the slope. The mower then follows the boundary wire at a slower speed. The risk of the mower running outside of the working area due to skidding increases.

The charging station is positioned on an island.

When there is more than 4 metres between the charging station and the outer edge of the boundary wire, it can take a long time for Automower® to find the charging station when it follows the boundary wire. There is a risk of the mower following the outer edge of the working area 2 - 3 turns before it changes direction and starts to follow the loop at another spot.

Placement and connection of the guide wire

In the text below the guide wires are called guide 1 and guide 2, as is the case on the rear of the charging station.

1.Check that the charging station has the best placement.

The guide wire together with the part of the boundary wire that makes up the return to the charging station is known as the guide loop. The current in the guide loop always goes to the left in the connection between the guide wire and the boundary wire.

The adjoining picture shows what is considered a guide loop.

The picture is also a good example of an ideal position for the charging station to give the shortest possible guide loop.
