Or:
A separated zone that requires more than a
single operation to completely mow the area
P
This large separated area needs a separate
operation of the mower.
P
An additional Base Station (optional accessory)
should be installed in the additional area.
1.4
Select Base Station Location
The unit’s Base Station is placed along the Perimeter Wire. This is where the
wire “loop” starts and ends. The Base Station and Power Box have two main
functions:
P
They generate a small signal along the Perimeter Wire (very low
voltage), which serves as an “invisible wall” setting the lawn boundaries
for the unit.
P
They charge the unit’s batteries.
After completing the One-Time Setup of the Perimeter Wire and the
Base Station, a weekly schedule is set. That’s when the unit starts
mowing for you for the entire season.
The unit leaves the Base Station on the day and time scheduled according
to a predetermined program for your specific lawn and preferences. It mows
the lawn and it returns to the Base Station for recharging.
1.4.1
Consider the following in order to choose the best location:
P
Do
not
place the Base Station within 3 meters (10 ft.) after a corner.
P
The Base Station should be close enough (20
m / 65 ft.) to a wall plug socket (230V / 120V).
P
If the lawn has more than one zone, set
the Base Station within the largest zone.
P
Make the Base Station invisible to the street.
P
Prefer a shady spot. This will extend battery
lifetime
P
Place the Base Station on a relatively level
ground.
Do
not
place it on a slope.
P
Place the Base Station away from sprinkler
heads.
