Passages when mowing
Long and narrow passages and areas narrower than
1.5to 2 metres should be avoided. When the robotic
lawnmower mows, there is a risk that it travels around in the passage or area for a long period of time. The lawn will then look flattened.
Slopes
The robotic lawnmower can also operate on sloping working areas. The maximum gradient is defined as percentage units (%). The slope as a percentage is calculated as the difference in elevation in centimetres for every metre. If for instance the difference in elevation is 10 cm, the slope gradient is 10%. See the illustration.
The boundary wire can be laid across a slope that slants less than 10%.
The boundary wire should not be laid across a slope that is steeper than 10%. There is a risk that the robotic lawnmower will find it difficult to turn there. The robotic lawnmower will then stop and the Outside working area fault message is displayed. The risk is at its greatest in damp weather conditions, as the wheels can slip on the wet grass.
However, the boundary wire can be laid across a slope steeper than 10% if there is an obstacle that the robotic lawnmower is allowed to collide with, for example, a fence or a dense hedge.
Inside the working area the robotic lawnmower can mow areas which slope up to 45%. Areas that slope more must be isolated with the boundary wire.
When a part of the working area’s outer edge slopes more than 10%, the boundary wire must be laid about 20 cm in on the flat ground before the beginning of the slope.
