Plan for the boundary wire
The wire has to be placed at a certain distance from the edge of the lawn. This distance
changes depending on what's on the other side of the edge. Different parts of your lawn may
border different scenes:
1. If the edge of the lawn borders a step: keep the wire 30 cm from the edge, as shown in fig 1.
2. If the lawn has a noticeable slope: keep the wire 30 cm from the edge, as shown in fig 2.
3. If the edge of the lawn borders gravel: keep the wire 30 cm from the edge, as mower's wheels
may slip on gravel, as shown in fig 3.
4. If the lawn has a slope greater than 10 degrees: keep the wire 30 cm from the edge of the slope,
as shown in fig 4.
5. If the edge of the lawn borders a pathat the same height: keep the wire 10 cm from the edge, as
shown in fig 5.

If a side of your lawn borders a neighbor's lawn with a robotic mower in use, lay your wire 1 m
apart from your neighbor's wire to avoid possible interference.
Patrol your lawn
Mower is designed to manage the most complex of lawns. Carry out a visual inspection of your
lawn so you are prepared for a trouble-free installation of the boundary wire.
Identify forbidden areas
1. You don't want your robotic mower to behead flowers, dive into a water feature, or shred tree
roots that emerge from the ground. Locate these areas and surround them with boundary wire
to prevent mower from accessing them.
2. The boundary wire is a single loop connected on both ends to the charging station, so you will
have to depart with the wire from the border, surround the area you want to protect, then take
the wire back to the border (as shown in the figure below).

Identify obstacles
Mower's bump sensor can manage solid obstacles such as trees, furniture and the like, which
don't need to be surrounded by wire. If your lawn has several obstacles and trees close to each
other, we recommend you to purchase the mower URS option, an intelligent ultrasonic auto-pilot
that makes your mower steer around obstacles instead of bouncing into them.
