Installing The Boundary Wire - Makita RM350D Setup Manual

Installing the Boundary Wire

• The boundary wire is installed around the outermost side of the area where the Robotic Mower will perform the mowing work. Install the bound-
ary wire so that it encloses the work area in a single, unbroken line and connect both ends of the boundary wire to the charging station.
• The Robotic Mower will not operate properly if the boundary wire is not installed correctly. Be sure to install the boundary wire by following the
instructions on this manual.
• If there is a metal object such as steel bar on the ground, the metal object interferes the loop signal and cause stoppage.
NOTE: There are two ways to install the boundary wire; fixing with pegs or burying in the ground (up to 20 cm). This instruction manual explains
the installation using pegs.

Separate by about 35 cm from obstacles with a height of 5 cm or more. (An area of
about 25 cm from the obstacle will be left unmowed. )
Use the supplied measuring gauge for making an appropriate distance from the
obstacles. (Trim out the measuring gauge along the perforation from the package.)
Separate by about 30 cm from obstacles with a height of less than 5 cm. (An area
of about 20 cm from the obstacle will be left unmowed. )
Separate by about 10 cm from obstacles with a height of less than 1 cm. (No area
will be left unmowed. )
(a)
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. Refer to "Making an island" (page12) for details.
