Installation Of Boundary Wire - Husqvarna Auto Mower Operator's Manual

There is a toggle switch on the charging station for testing. A
continuous beep when the switch is switched on indicates that
the charging station is receiving power and that the search and
boundary wires are connected. A series of beeps indicates that
the charging station is receiving power, but the search or
boundary wires or both are disconnected or broken.
There should be two free zones of 40 cm (16") on both short
sides of the charging station to provide optimal operation.
Accordingly, the boundary wires should run from the charging
station in line with its outer edges.

Installation of boundary wire

The boundary wire must be laid along the outer edge of the
Auto Mower's working area.
When the Auto Mower reaches the boundary wire it senses that
it is passing the wire. It then continues for a short distance
beyond the wire before reversing.

How far inside the outer edge of the working area the boundary
wire should be placed depends on what lies immediately outside
the area. If there is a high obstacle, such as a wall or fence, or
delicate flowers, just outside the area to be mown, the boundary
wire should be laid 40 cm (16") from the obstacle. This should
prevent the Auto Mower bumping into it.
Where the lawn finishes with a ditch or a small rise, such as
curb stones (max. 5 cm/1 1/8" high), lay the boundary wire 30
cm (12") inside the edge of the working area. This ensures that
the wheels will not fall into the ditch or ride up on the curb
stones.
If the lawn slopes down toward the boundary wire this distance
must be increased by 5–10 cm (2-4") because of the slope.
Where a path has been laid at the same level as the lawn, it is
possible to allow the Auto Mower to drive a little way on to the
path and cut the grass right up to the edge. In this case, lay the
boundary wire about 10 cm (4") from the edge of the path.
Long narrow passages (more than 2 meters/6 1/2 ft in length)
should be at least 2 m (6 1/2ft) wide, i.e. leaving 140 cm (55")
between the wires, to give the Auto Mower enough space to
make its way through. See the illustration. Shorter passages
(less than 1 meter/39 inches long) should be at least 1,2 m (39
inches) wide.
