Laying the boundary wire
If you intend to staple down the boundary wire:
• Cut the grass very low with a standard lawnmower or a
trimmer where the wire is to be laid. It will then be
easier to lay the wire close to the ground and the risk
of the robotic lawnmower cutting the wire or damaging
the insulation of the wire is reduced.
• Make sure to lay the boundary wire close to the ground
and secure the pegs close together. The cable must lie
close to the ground so as not to be cut before the
grass roots have grown over it.
• Use a hammer to knock the staples into the ground.
Exercise care when knocking in the staples and make
sure the wire is not under strain. Avoid sharp bends in
the wire.

If the boundary wire is to be buried:
• Make sure to lay the boundary wire at least 1 cm and a
maximum of 20 cm in the ground. The wire can be
buried for instance using an edge cutter or a straight
spade.
Use the supplied measurement gauge as a guide when
you lay out the boundary wire. This helps you to easily set
the correct distance between the boundary wire and the
boundary/obstacle. The measurement gauge is broken
loose from the box.
Note: Extra wire must not be placed in coils outside the
boundary wire. This can disrupt the robotic lawnmower.
Eyelet for connecting the guide wire
To facilitate the connection of the guide wire to the
boundary wire, it is recommended to create a loop with
about 20 cm of extra boundary wire at the point where the
guide wire will later be connected. It is a good idea to plan
where the guide wire will be placed before laying out the
boundary wire. See Laying the boundary wire on page 17 .
Laying the boundary wire in towards the charging station
The boundary wire must be laid in line with the rear end of
the charging station and at least 1.5 m straight out to the
