Attaching perimeter wire and guide wire
a
► Use anchoring stakes to secure the perimeter
wire and guide wire so that the following con‐
ditions are met:
– The maximum distance between fixing pins
must not exceed a = 1 m.
– The perimeter wire and guide wire lie flat on
the ground in all areas.
– The anchoring stakes are sunk completely
into the ground.
Installing Wire Reserves
Wire reserves make it easier to correct installed
wire and give some leeway for future adapta‐
tions.
Examples:
– A bed is extended and blocked off.
– Bushes and shrubbery grow and the perimeter
wire must be installed around the plants in a
larger arc.
– The perimeter wire was cut too short at the
docking station and cannot be connected.
One or several wire reserves can be planned
and installed.
► Route a = 1 m of perimeter wire in parallel and
closely together around 2 fixing pins without
the perimeter wires crossing over each over.
► Secure the wire reserve using additional fixing
pins.

8 Installing the Perimeter Wire
8.2 Planning guide wire and routing
connection point in the perime‐
ter wire
Carefully plan the routing of one or several guide
wires in advance. Take into account the position
of all guide wires when installing the perimeter
wire. At least one guide wire must be installed;
three guide wires may be installed.

A guide wire (1) fulfills the following functions:
– Orientation for returning to the docking station
(2)
– Moving toward a starting point (3)
– Splits the mowing area into zones (A and B)
Starting at the docking station (2), install the
guide wire (1) across the mowing area and con‐
nect it to a point on the circumferential perimeter
wire (4) that is as far away as possible.

► Plan the guide wire so that the following condi‐
tions are met:
– Route the guide wire for a =2 m in a straight
line from the docking station to the mowing
area.
– The minimum distance between the guide wire
and the circumferential perimeter wire is
b = 27.5 cm
– Route the guide wire with a minimum distance
c = 37 cm (length: 1x iMOW
straight line and at a right angle to the perime‐
ter wire and connect it.
