The wire can be buried for instance using an edge cutter or a straight spade. Note: Extra wire must not be placed in coils outside the boundary wire.

It will then be easier to lay the wire close to the ground and the risk of the robotic lawnmower cutting the wire or damaging the insulation of the wire is reduced. • The boundary wire must lie close to the ground so as not to be cut before the grass roots have grown over it. Mowing the grass too low right after the installation can damage the wire insulation. Damage to the insulation may not cause disruptions until several weeks or months later. To avoid this, always select the maximum cutting height the first weeks after installation and then lower the height one step at a time every second week until the desired cutting height has been reached. • Use a hammer to knock the pegs into the ground. Exercise care when knocking the pegs and make sure the wire is not under strain. 3.5.4.2 Laying the boundary wire in towards the charging station The boundary wire can be laid completely outside the charging station (see option 1 in the figure). If there is a need to partly locate the charging station outside the working area, it is also possible to lay the wire under the charging station plate (see option 2 in the figure). However most of the charging station must not be placed outside the working area as the robotic lawnmower can then find it difficult to find the charging station (see figure). 18 - Installation 362 - 002 - 06.02.2018

3.5.4 Laying the boundary wire
If you intend to staple down the boundary wire:
•
Cut the grass very low with a standard lawnmower
or a trimmer where the wire is to be laid. It will then
be easier to lay the wire close to the ground and the
risk of the robotic lawnmower cutting the wire or
damaging the insulation of the wire is reduced.
•
The boundary wire must lie close to the ground so
as not to be cut before the grass roots have grown
over it. Mowing the grass too low right after the
installation can damage the wire insulation. Damage
to the insulation may not cause disruptions until
several weeks or months later. To avoid this, always
select the maximum cutting height the first weeks
after installation and then lower the height one step
at a time every second week until the desired cutting
height has been reached.
•
Use a hammer to knock the pegs into the ground.
Exercise care when knocking the pegs and make
sure the wire is not under strain.
If the boundary wire is to be buried:
•
Make sure to lay the boundary wire at a minimum of
1 cm / 0.4 in. and a maximum of 20 cm / 8 in. in the
ground. The wire can be buried for instance using an
edge cutter or a straight spade.
Note:
Extra wire must not be placed in coils outside the
boundary wire. This can disrupt the robotic lawnmower.
3.5.4.1 Eyelet for connecting the guide wire
To facilitate the connection of the guide wire to the
boundary wire, it is recommended to create an eyelet
with about 20 cm / 8 in. of extra boundary wire at the
point where the guide wire will later be connected. It is a
good idea to plan where the guide wire will be placed
before laying out the boundary wire. See
Laying the
boundary wire on page 18
.
3.5.4.2 Laying the boundary wire in towards the
charging station
The boundary wire can be laid completely outside the
charging station (see option 1 in the figure). If there is a
need to partly locate the charging station outside the
working area, it is also possible to lay the wire under the
charging station plate (see option 2 in the figure).
However most of the charging station must not be
placed outside the working area as the robotic
lawnmower can then find it difficult to find the charging
station (see figure).
