The low voltage cable must not be shortened or extended. CAUTION: Place the low voltage cable so that the blades on the blade disc can never come in contact with it. CAUTION: Use the plug to disconnect the charging station, for instance before cleaning or repairing the loop wire. 3.3.3 Installing and connecting the charging station 1. Position the charging station in a suitable spot. See Best charging station location on page 12. 2. Tilt the protective cover on the charging station forward and connect the low voltage cable to the charging station. CAUTION: It is not permitted to make new holes in the charging station's plate. Only the existing holes may be used to secure it to the ground. CAUTION: Do not tread or walk on the charging station's plate. 3. Connect the power supply's power cable to a 100-240V wall socket. If the power supply is connected to an electrical socket outdoors, this must be approved for outdoor use. See Connecting the power supply on page 13. 4.

WARNING:

No parts of the power supply must

under any circumstances be changed or

tampered with. The low voltage cable must not

be shortened or extended.

CAUTION:

Place the low voltage cable so that

the blades on the blade disc can never come in

contact with it.

CAUTION:

Use the plug to disconnect the

charging station, for instance before cleaning or

repairing the loop wire.

3.3.3 Installing and connecting the charging station

Position the charging station in a suitable spot. See

Best charging station location on page 12

Tilt the protective cover on the charging station

forward and connect the low voltage cable to the

charging station.

Connect the power supply’s power cable to a

100-240V wall socket. If the power supply is

connected to an electrical socket outdoors, this must

be approved for outdoor use. See

Connecting the

power supply on page 13

Attach the charging station to the ground using the

supplied screws. Ensure the screws are screwed all

the way down in the countersink.

Note:

The guide wire must be laid and connected to

the charging station before securing the charging

station to the ground. See

Laying and connecting

the guide wire on page 20

CAUTION:

It is not permitted to make new holes

in the charging station’s plate. Only the existing

holes may be used to secure it to the ground.

CAUTION:

Do not tread or walk on the charging

station’s plate.

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 about 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
