Installation Guide
This chapter explains how to install the Robotic Mower. Please read this completely before you start the
installation.
Introduction
We recommend creating a drawing of your lawn, including all obstacles and how these should be protected.
This makes it easier to find a good position for the docking station and how to correctly place the boundary
wire around your garden perimeter protecting bushes, flower beds etc. You will also need some tools, like a
hammer and wire cutters, pliers or scissors.
Pre Cut your lawn
Your lawn needs to be prepared correctly, prior to installing the robot lawnmower.
Pre cut your lawn to a height of 2.5 in.
< 2.5 in
< 2.5 in
> 2.5 in
Cutting limitations
The Robotic Mower is equipped with collision sensors. These detect all rigid and solid obstacles that are
higher than 4 in, such as walls, fences and garden furniture.
When the sensors report an obstacle, the Robotic Mower stops, backs up and then mows in a different
direction. As a long-term solution, it is recommended to lay the boundary wire accordingly using the ruler to
protect obstacles and the device. Lay the boundary wire so that the Robotic
Mower is not more than 65 ft away from the boundary wire at any point in the mowing area.
4 in
Trees
The Robotic Mower treats trees as common obstacles, but if the roots of the tree are exposed and lower
than 4 in, this area should be excluded using boundary wire in order to protect the tree root, cutting blades
or rear wheels from damage.
ASSEMBLY
Stones
We recommend clearing the lawn of small (less than 4 in high) rocks and stones and any stones with a
round or sloped edge. The Robotic Mower might try and climb such rocks instead of recognising them as
a barrier. The Robotic Mower geting stuck on such a stone requires user intervention to restart mowing.
Contact with stones can result in damage to the blades.
Slopes
The Robotic Mower can navigate slopes up to a maximum of 40% incline or decline.
The boundary wire should never be perpendicular to an incline of more than 10%. Also, leave strip of at
least 6.5 ft between a slope of 10% or steeper and the boundary wire. Otherwise, the higher speed going
down the slope may cause the Robotic Mower to go over the boundary wire, especially on wet and slippery
ground.

Paths, Driveways and Roads
If an elevated driveway crosses your lawn, better keep it outside the boundary wire.
Please allow a safety distance of 12 in between driveway and boundary wire
.
12 in
If the driveway and lawn are at the same level, feel free to use the boundary wire to create a corridor. This
allows your Robotic Mower to cross the driveway and reach the opposite lawn.
