Installation Of The Guide Wire - Husqvarna Automower 305 Operator's Manual

3.6 Installation of the guide wire

The guide wire is a wire that is laid away from the
charging station, for instance out towards a remote part
of the working area or through a narrow passage and
then connected with the boundary wire.
The same cable roll is used for both the boundary and
guide wires.
The guide wire, as the boundary wire, can be stapled
to or buried in the ground.
The guide wire is used by Automower
way back to the charging station but it also guides the
mower to find its way from the charging station to
remote areas of the working area. For more
information about the Remote start function, see 6.4

Placement and connection of the guide
wire
1. Check that the charging station has the best
placement.
The guide wire together with the part of the
boundary wire that makes up the return to the
charging station is known as the guide loop. The
current in the guide loop always goes to the left
in the connection between the guide wire and the
boundary wire.
The adjoining picture shows what is considered
a guide loop.
The picture is also a good example of an ideal
position for the charging station to give the
shortest possible guide loop.
If the guide wire is longer then 250 metres, the
mower may find it difficult to follow the wire. This
varies depending on the design of the garden
and installation.
