Installing the boundary wire
NOTE: The boundary wire should be extended straight 1.5 m or more from both sides of the charging station.
NOTE: For details such as the installation distance from obstacles, refer to "Connecting the Wires to the Charging Station" (page 27).
1. Drive the first peg near the charging station using a plastic hammer and place the boundary wire.
► Fig.5: 1. Charging station 2. Peg
► Fig.5: a) 1.5 m or more
2. Tension the boundary wire so as not to let it float from the ground, and then drive the next peg leaving about 1 m interval from the former one.
NOTE: If the boundary wire floats, use a narrower peg interval.
NOTE: For details such as the installation distance from obstacles, refer to "Boundary wire installation conditions" (page 22)
3. Make a loop (eyelet) of about 20 cm to provide slack in the boundary wire at the planned boundary wire - guide wire connection site for easier
connection later.

NOTE: The guide wire guides the Robotic Mower when it returns to the charging station. For details on connection with the guide wire, refer to
"Installing the guide wire" (page 26).
4. If there are areas that the Robotic Mower should not enter or obstacles that the Robotic Mower should not encounter, exclude the area by
installing the boundary wire around there.
NOTE: For details, refer to "Making an island" (page 25).
5.
After installing the boundary wire up to the charging station, drive the peg near the opposite side of the peg at the starting point using a plastic
hammer.

6. Cut the wire, leaving a length of wire that can be connected to the charging station.
► Fig.8: 1. Terminal L 2. Terminal R
7. At the point where the connector can reach to the terminal, align the boundary wire with the groove of supplied connector and then bind them
firmly using pliers.

- If there is a slope in the work area, lay the boundary wire on a slope of less than
8°.
- If you lay a boundary wire on a slope of more than 8°, lay an area of less than 8°
below the slope for at least 1 m.
- You cannot lay a boundary wire on a slope of more than 8° in the outermost work
area.
- Lay the boundary wire 20 cm away from the boundary between the slope and the
flat.
When using multiple stations and preparing multiple work areas, install the bound-
ary wires so that they are separated by distance of 1 m or more.
