Laying out the boundary wire

Run the boundary wire around the working area, but wait before connecting the wire to the charging station.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Extra wire must not be placed in coils outside the boundary wire. This can disrupt Automower™.

Tip! Use the supplied measurement gauge as a guide when you lay out the boundary wire. This helps you to easily set the correct distance between the boundary wire and the boundary/obstacle.

If you intend to staple down the boundary wire:

Tip! Mow the lawn where the wire is to be laid using a normal lawn mower or a trimmer. It will then be easier to lay the wire close to the ground and the risk of the mower cutting the wire off is reduced.

Make sure to lay the boundary wire tight to the ground and secure the staples close together with approximately 30" between each staple. The wire must generally lie close to the ground, so as not to be cut off before the grass roots have grown over it.

Use a hammer to knock down the staples in the ground. Exercise care when knocking in the staples and make sure the wire is not under strain. Avoid forming the wire in sharp bends.

If you intend to bury the boundary wire:

Make sure to place the boundary wire at least 0.5" and a maximum of 8" into the ground.
