Uneven lawn surfaces
Uneven lawn areas may cause the blades to touch the ground. We recommend leveling the lawn before
using your Robotic Mower or excluding uneven areas with the boundary wire.
Placing the docking station
Locate the best position for your docking station. Be aware that it needs a permanent connection to the
mains, so take into account the location of the nearest power outlet.
To ensure the Robotic Mower can return to the docking station smoothly, leave 5 ft of straight wire to the
front of the docking station and 12 in to the side facing the cutting area. Use a shadedlocation for the
docking station, as a lower temperature while charging is beneficial to the battery.
Important: Place the docking station on an even, flat surface away from ponds, pools or stairs.
We recommend suitable protection from the elements, for example a robot port or garage.
Do not place the docking station too close to a slope, such as at the top of a hill or the bottom of
a furrow. Avoid left and right inclination in excess of 5 degrees.

If your lawn has a soft or uneven surface, we recommend fortifying the area around the docking station with
a grass protection mesh. Otherwise, the repeated stress of the rear wheels can damage the turf.
Once the position of the docking station is confirmed and mains electrical connection is laid out, please do
not connect to main power yet. Finish all boundary layout work before connecting the docking station to the
power supply.
Pegging your boundary wire
We strongly recommend mowing the lawn to 2.5 in or less before laying out the boundary wire. Burying the
boundary wire is entirely optional. Still, the closer to the ground you lay out the boundary wire, the lower the
chance of tripping over it or damaging it when mowing the lawn.
Use the included ruler to ensure the required 12 in distance between wire and obstacles.

The recommended distance between two pegs is about 30 in in straight lines, and less in tight curves. Note
that the pegs' hook and wire slit always faces the outside of the boundary. Within a short time the cable will
be covered with grass. Since the voltage is only 32 V, there is no risk of electric shock. Make sure that the
hook of the peg and the opening for the cable always face the demarcated.

When first planting the pegs, do not drive them fully into the ground. Use a light hammer to drive them in a
little bit. Also locate the fixing pegs and lay each one on the lawn at approximately the correct distance from
lawn edges (12 in) and obstacles.
