English
► Leave a free, level area (3) with a radius of at least
a = 3.3 ft. (1 m) in the mowing area (2) in front of the
docking station (1), free of hills, inclines, depressions,
holes or obstacles. Select an area free of magnetic or
electrical interference. For example, never install over a
metal grate or near an electrical motor, such as a
swimming pool pump. Be sure to remove any existing
perimeter wires before starting a new installation.
► Install the perimeter wire on the left side (2) and on the
right side (1) of the docking station (3) in a straight line
with a length of a > 23.6 in. (60 cm) and at right
angles (90°) to the base plate.
To install the docking station outside the mowing area
(External Docking Station):
► Select an area outside of the perimeter wire that is flat and
free of hills, inclines, depressions, holes or obstacles.
Select an area free of magnetic interference. For example,

never install over a metal grate or near an electrical motor,
such as a swimming pool pump. Be sure to remove any
existing perimeter wires before starting a new installation.
► Position the docking station (1) outside the mowing
area (2) in a space that meets the following requirements:
– Minimum clearance to the mowing area:
a = 19.7 in. (50 cm)
– Width of the free area: b = 17.3 in. (44 cm)
– Maximum clearance to the mowing area:
c = 39.4 ft. (12 m)
► A corridor (3) can be installed, @ 11.8.
– d = 11 in. (27 cm)
► Use the tunnel-shaped STIHL Corridor Pattern to install
the gate (A) at the end of the corridor.
► When installing the docking station outside the mowing
area and the "Passage" function ("Offset Drive Home") is
activated, install "search loops" to allow the robotic mower
to more easily find the docking station. Search loops are
explained later in this manual, @ 11.9.
If an external docking station has been installed, STIHL
recommends defining at least one "starting point" outside
the corridor to the docking station after initial installation is
complete. Starting points are explained later in this manual,
@ 15.6.
To secure the docking station:

► For longer service life, STIHL recommends installing the
docking station in a protected, shady location.
