• The boundary wire runs across a long slope
(steeper than 10 %).
When Automower follows the boundary wire
across a slope (steeper than 10 %) the mower
must compensate for the slope. The mower must
stop relatively often to check the strength of the
loop signal and then follow the boundary wire at
a slower speed. The risk of the mower running
outside of the working area due to skidding
increases.
• The charging station is positioned on an island.
When there is more than 4 metres between the
charging station and the outer edge of the
boundary wire, it can take a long time for
Automower to find the charging station when it
follows the boundary wire. There is a risk of the
mower following the outer edge of the working
area 2 – 3 turns before it changes direction and
starts to follow the loop at another spot.
3.3.2 Installation of the guide wire
Check that the charging station has the best
placement.
• Placement of the charging station and where on
the boundary wire the guide wire is connected
affect the length of the guide loop, see the 1.8.2
Guide loop on page 13.
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.
• The guide loop should be a maximum of
200 metres long. When the guide loop is longer,
there is a risk Automower can not follow the
guide wire.
