3.7 To examine where to install the
objects on the map
CAUTION:
If the work area is adjacent
to water bodies, slopes, precipices or a
public road, the virtual boundary must have
a protective wall. The wall must be minimum
15 cm / 6 in. in height.
CAUTION:
Do not let the product
operate on gravel.
CAUTION:
For careful operation
without noise, isolate all obstacles such as
trees, roots and stones.
Note:
Make a blueprint of the work area before you
install the virtual boundaries.
•
Make sure that the area where the product
operates has unimpeded sky view. This means
that 110° of the sky in all directions must be
unimpeded. The product cannot receive satellite
signals that is less than 10% elevation angle.

•
Make sure that there are no trees close to the
virtual boundaries and along the paths.
•
Make sure that there are no trees with thick
vegetation in the areas where the product
operates.
•
Make sure the that product can receive radio
signals from the reference station in the complete
area. It is recommended to have a free line of sight
between the product and the reference station for
an optimal performance.
3.7.1 Passages
A passage is a section that has virtual boundary on each
side and that connects 2 parts of the work area. The
passage must be a minimum of 2 m / 6.5 ft. wide to get
a good cutting result. Short passages can be as narrow
as 1 m / 3.3 ft. A long narrow passage can have a
negative impact of the cutting result. A dead end must
be a minimum of 2 m / 6.5 ft. wide.
3.7.2 To install the map objects in a slope
The product can operate in 45% slopes. Slopes that are
too steep must be excluded from the area or isolated as
stay-out zones. The gradient (%) is calculated as height
per m. Example: 10 cm / 100 cm = 10%.
10 cm/4"
100 cm/40"
10%
•
For slopes steeper than 45% inside the work area,
isolate the slope with a stay-out zone.
•
For slopes steeper than 15% along the outer edge
of the lawn. For installation of the virtual boundary,
operate the product with the rear wheel 5 cm / 2 in.

For slopes adjacent to a public road, put a fence or
a protective wall along the outer edge of the slope.
