Laying boundary wire
The boundary wire location determines the parameters of the mowing area, this area
may consist of multiple sections in which the lawnmower can operate. For mowing start
point setup and detailed information please see "4 MENU SETTINGS" (M page 38).
Laying the boundary wire where the slope is too steep has a bad effect on the lawnmower. For more information, see
"Conditions for laying the boundary wire" (M page 20).
The advantage of laying the shortcut wire is that it shortens the traveling distance
between the docking station and the mowing start points, and supresses the occurrence
of wheel tracks.
- Shortens the returning time to the docking station.
- Facilitates traveling through the narrow passages.
Leave 5 mm of space or less between parts of
the boundary wire and make sure that parts of
the boundary wire do not overlap or cross.
Lay the boundary wire around
the objects which the lawnmower
might run on top of (e.g. rocks, tree
roots, etc.); these objects must be
removed from the work area.
The shortcut wire can be laid on slopes of less than 15° (27%).
If the shortcut wire is laid on a slope of less than 15° (27%), lay
it obliquely to the slope.
NOTE:
- Make sure to fill in "LAWN DIAGRAM" referring to the layout of the boundary wire (M page 109).

Correct
Less than
15° (27%)
Leave 30 cm to 50 cm
of space between the
boundary wire and the
mowing area boundary.
Do not lay the boundary wire
laterally across a slope that is
steeper than 15° (27%).
Lay the boundary wire laterally
across a relatively fl at space, with
a slope of less than 15° (27%), that
comes after the location where the
slope is more than 15° (27%).

More than
15° (27%)
