Lawn Preparation

Remove stones, loose pieces of wood, wire, live mains cables
and other foreign objects from the cutting area.
Make sure that the cutting area is even and has no ditches,
grooves and steep slopes above 20° that are clear obstruc-
tions for the machine.
Cut the main area of the lawn with a conventional mower to a
max. height of 40 mm and the perimeter wire area to a max.
height of 20 mm.

Installation

For a video guide on how to install the Indego please visit
www.bosch-indego.com or use the following QR-Code.
Select a position for the docking station, horizontally levelled
and out of direct sunlight.
Note: The docking station must be positioned on the wire at
an outer edge of the cutting area. It cannot be positioned by
the side of a shed or workshop that appears as an island with-
in the cutting area.
Make sure that the docking station is placed beside the cut-
ting area with a straight 1.5 m track in front of the docking sta-
tion and a straight 1 m track behind. Whilst stood in the grass
area to be cut it is important that the docking station charging
pins point to the left. (see figure 2)
Note: If the docking station is positioned with the charging
pins pointing either into the grass area or pointing to the right
the Indego will not run correctly.
Pull the wire end through the front hole of the base plate and
straight through the wire duct and the rear hole. Fix the wire
with a peg inline with the hole. Cut off insulation carefully and
connect the wire to the right hand (red) terminal. (see
figures 4 – 5)
Fix the docking station with 4 supplied fixing pins to the
ground. (see figure 6)

If the working area borders against a flat path or surface that

is level with the lawn the Indego will be able to run over it. In
such cases the perimeter wire should be positioned right up

to a maximum depth of 5 cm. It is recommended to mark out

permanent objects within the garden. This will prevent the In-
dego colliding with the object and reduce wear on the shell.
Objects on the lawn below 6 cm height e.g. trees, ponds, flow-
er beds etc. must be delimited in a clockwise direction. The
lines to and from these zones may not cross but the wire
should be touching. (see figure 7)
Fix the wire with the first peg next to the docking station, ten-
sion and fix with pegs at a distance of approx. 50 cm. (see
figure 7)
Continue the loop and bring the wire to the back of the dock-
ing station and inline with the other end of the wire. Fix the
second end of the wire also with the peg. Perimeter wire and
peg should be installed inline. Shorten the wire, cut off insula-
tion carefully and connect the wire to the left hand (black) ter-
minal. (see figure 10)
Clip on the protective cover of the docking station. (see
figure 11)
Note: If extra perimeter wire is required this can be added us-
ing one connector. (see figure 8)
The wire can be extended up to the maximum allowed length
of 450 m.
Note: If verticutting or raking is intended avoid the perimeter
wire.
Install the power supply in a cool, dry environment. Connect it
with the docking station and an indoor mains socket. (see
figure 12)
Check the indicator on the docking station (see figure 13):
