Installation
Prepare the materials:
Take boundary wiring, pegs and the 2 scale cartons from the box.
Further you will need: hammer, plier, spanner/socket wrench.
Prepare the lawn:
The grass should not be higher than 60 mm when pegging the
boundary wire. If it is higher, it is recommended to mow the lawn
with an ordinary lawn mower first. Then the wire can be laid as close
as possible to the ground, which will prevent the robot mower from
cutting the cable and people from stumbling over it. After a short
while, the cable will disappear into the turf.
Lay the boundary wire:
Place the robot's docking station as indicated on your sketch (side-
wise) and insert the start peg. Take care that you reserve 0.5 m extra
cable to be used for the final installation of the docking station.
Lay your wiring loosely round the working area in the garden accord-
ing to your sketch. Then you can easily adjust it as you proceed.
Now you can start inserting the pegs. Use your scale cartons to keep
the desired distance to the edge (10 – 30 cm depending on the nature
of the edge as described under "Planning"). The distance between
the pegs must be max. 1 m. We recommend that the pegs are placed
closer to each other in the corners, which shall always be more than
100°.
If there are areas in your lawn where you do not want your robot to
mow, you encircle the area with boundary wire as indicated on page 7.
Note: max. 5 mm between in- and outgoing boundary wire (see
drawing page 7).
Insert you final peg when you are back at the docking station.
wire . Use the included wire joints for assembly.
You do not need to strip the wire ends for the assembly.
Connect the boundary wire to the docking
station:
Cut the end of the wire to a length appropriate to reach the clamps
(too much extra wire may cause signal problems). Strip the two
ends of the wire.
When you connect the wire to the docking station there is an IN-
wire and an OUT-wire as indicated. The IN-wire is threaded through
the wireholder under the docking station and must be connected to
the red clamp on the left side of wireholder, whereas the OUT-wire
must be connected to the black clamp above the wireholder.
You can now fix the docking station to the ground by screwing the 4
8
safety plugs from the box into the ground.

(end of wire).
2. OUT (black) - to the lawn (start of wire).
After connecting IN and OUT wire, put the
protecting cover on.
Charging and Testing
Charging the robot mower:
First:
Place the robot mower in the docking station for charging, even
if the robot has been pre-charged at the factory.
Testing the charging adapter:
Connect the adapter with the main power
supply, the LED indicator on the adapter
shows a constant green light. When the
machine is charging, the LED indicator turns
into a constant red light until the robot is fully
charged.
Note: Sometimes the LED on the robot shows fully charged
(constant green light) while the LED indicator on the charging
adapter still shows a constant red light. This is normal.
If there is no light on the charging adapter, the adapter is bro-
ken because of water intrusion.
Testing the docking station:
Connect the wire to the adaptor and afterwards to the power
outlet and the LED indicator on the docking station is turned
on. Turn on the mower Power button and the LED indicator
flashes green every 0.5 second (faster).
When the robot is fully charged, the indicator shows a constant
green light (1).
Note: If the robot LED indicator still keeps flashing after a
long-time charging (more than 3 hours), generally there is a
poor charging contact. It's time to clean charging tentacles and the 2 copper sheets of the robot. We sug-
gest you clean these charging parts regularly with steel wool or fine emery paper.
Disconnect the IN-wire from the red clamp. The LED-indicator flashes a green light and the alarm starts
beeping. After 30 seconds, the buzzer stops beeping, but the LED indicator still flashes green. This is a
way of tracing if there is a break on the boundary wire.
Reconnect the IN-wire to the red clamp
and the LED-indicator now shows a con-
stant green light again (2).
The docking station is now ready to use.
Important: The adapter must always be
stored in a dry place!
The "IN" arrow on docking
the docking station points
towards the working area.
