1.2.4 Movement pattern The movement pattern of the robotic lawnmower is random, which means that a movement pattern is never repeated. With this cutting system the lawn is mown evenly without any mowing lines from the robotic lawnmower. The blades must be in good condition to obtain the best mowing result.

2.3.4 In the event of a thunderstorm 3. Carry the robotic lawnmower by the handle under the robotic lawnmower with the blade disc away from the body. To reduce the risk of damage to electrical components in the robotic lawnmower and its charging station, we recommend that all connections to the charging station are disconnected (power supply, boundary wire and guide wires) if there is a risk of a thunderstorm.
Visit www.husqvarna.com for further descriptions and tips regarding installation. 1. If the lawn in the working area is longer than 10 cm mow it using a standard lawnmower. Collect the grass.
• Screws for the charging station • Measurement gauge 3.2.1 Installation tools 3 m / 10 ft During installation you will also need: • Hammer/plastic mallet (to simplify putting the pegs in the ground). • Combination pliers for cutting the boundary wire and 2 m / 7 ft pressing the connectors together.

WARNING: No parts of the power supply must under any circumstances be changed or tampered with. The low voltage cable must not be shortened or extended. WARNING: Use the plug to disconnect the charging station, for instance before cleaning the charging station or repairing the loop wire. 3.4 Charging the battery CAUTION: Place the low voltage cable and adjust the cutting height so that the blades can...

• About 20 cm of extra wire is available to which the Laying the guide wire will be connected later. See boundary wire on page 16 . The illustration below shows how the boundary wire must be laid around the working area and around obstacles.
Page 15
CAUTION: The boundary wire may not be crossed on its way to and from an island. Obstacles that can withstand a collision, for example, trees or bushes taller than 15 cm, do not need to be isolated with the boundary wire. The robotic lawnmower will turn around when it collides with this type of obstacle.

3. Switch the connections between the guide wire and the boundary wire in the charging station. Start by switching connection L and GUIDE. If the indicator lamp is lit with a solid green light, then the break is somewhere on the boundary wire between L and the point where the guide wire is connected to the boundary wire (thick black line in the illustration).
