► Make sure that the mowing area along the
perimeter wire and the guide wire is flat and
clear of obstacles as far as possible along the
following widths:
Perimeter wire (1)
– Toward the outside: a = 37 cm (length:
®
1x iMOW
Ruler)
– Toward the inside: b = 1.2 m
Guide wire (2)
– Toward the right in the direction of travel
toward the docking station: a = 37 cm
(length: 1x iMOW
– Toward the left in the direction of travel
toward the docking station: c = 1.2 m
Installing the Perimeter Wire
► Install the perimeter wire clockwise starting at
the docking station.
► Do not kink, cut, put tension on or cross the
perimeter wire.
► Make sure that the perimeter wire does not
cross over a guide wire.
► Exception: When installing a corridor, the
guide wire must cross the perimeter wire.
► Keep a minimum distance of 1 m to perimeter
wires of adjacent robot mower installations.
► Make sure that the length of the perimeter wire
does not exceed 850 m.
► Do not route the perimeter wire and guide wire
at different depths in the soil.

Attaching perimeter wire and guide wire
a
► Use anchoring stakes to secure the perimeter
wire and guide wire so that the following con‐
ditions are met:
– The maximum distance between fixing pins
must not exceed a = 1 m.
– The perimeter wire and guide wire lie flat on
the ground in all areas.
– The anchoring stakes are sunk completely
into the ground.
Installing Wire Reserves
Wire reserves make it easier to correct installed
wire and give some leeway for future adapta‐
tions.
Examples:
– A bed is extended and blocked off.
– Bushes and shrubbery grow and the perimeter
wire must be installed around the plants in a
larger arc.
– The perimeter wire was cut too short at the
docking station and cannot be connected.
One or several wire reserves can be planned
and installed.
► Route a = 1 m of perimeter wire in parallel and
closely together around 2 fixing pins without
the perimeter wires crossing over each over.
► Secure the wire reserve at the center using
two additional fixing pins.

Planning guide wire and routing con‐
nection point in the perimeter wire
Carefully plan the routing of one or several guide
wires in advance. Take into account the position
of all guide wires when installing the perimeter
