Connecting The Boundary Wire; Installation Of The Guide Wire - McCulloch ROB R600 Operator's Manual

the coupler fully. Use a polygrip to completely press
down the button on the coupler.

3.6 Connecting the boundary wire

CAUTION: The boundary wire must not be
crossed when connecting it to the charging
station. The right hand wire end must be
connected to the right hand pin on the charging
station and the left hand wire end to the left pin.
Connect the boundary wire to the charging station:
1. Open the connector and place the wire in the
connector grip.
2. Press the connectors together using a pair of pliers.
Press until you hear a click.
3. Cut off any excess boundary wire 1 cm / 0.4 in. or 2
cm / 0.8 in. above each connector.

4. Press the connector onto the metal pin, Press the
connector onto the contact pin, marked L (left) and R
(right), on the charging station.Carefully check that
the connector is properly fitted.

3.7 Installation of the guide wire

The guide wire is used by the robotic lawnmower to find
its way back to the charging station but also to guide the
robotic lawnmower to remote areas of the garden.
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 robotic lawnmower runs at varying distances from
the guide wire to reduce the risk of tracks forming. The
area beside the wire which the robotic lawnmower then
uses is called the Corridor. The wider the corridor
allowed by the installation, the less the risk of tracks
forming.
The robotic lawnmower always runs to the left of the
guide wire as seen facing the charging station. Thus the
corridor is to the left of the guide wire. When installing, it
is therefore important to create as much free space as
possible to the left of the guide wire, as seen facing the
charging station.
