Planning and Laying the Boundary Line Laying Boundary Lines In order to make the Robot Mower mow within the desired area – and only that area – you need to mark the area by means of boundary wiring. Remove all foreign objects, rocks, roots, etc. that may interfere with the Robot Mower’s operation in the mowing area. Large objects such as trees, swings sets, ponds, etc. should be encircled by the boundary line. The boundary wire line needs to be laid out in a continuous line (see Figure 2 on following page).
Ensure this side of docking station is facing inward to the lawn.
Docking Station Installation Avoid placing the docking station in a corner of the lawn or in low-lying areas where the docking station or the Robot Mower may be damaged by puddles, or under a high tree due to the risk of lightning. Note: It is important that the adapter and the electrical plug are always kept dry! The docking station must have 6.5 feet of free space in front of it so the Robot Mower can return to charge or when mowing is complete (see Figure 3).
