Ground wire
Cut the grass as low as possible with a traditional lawnmower or trimmer
along the entire path where the cable will be laid.This will make it easier
to lay the wire in contact with the ground, and to prevent it from being cut
by the cutting blade, and then having to join the two ends together as
described below.
1.
Position the wire in a clockwise direction along the entire track and
secure it with the pegs supplied (distance of 100÷200 cm (39.37÷78.74 ")
between each peg).
-
When laying the perimeter wire, follow the installation direction
around the fl owerbeds, i.e. a counter-clockwise direction.
-
In straight stretches, secure the wire so that it is taut and remains
fl at against the ground.
-
In curved sections, secure the wire so that it is not twisted, but
curves nicely (radius of 20 cm).
Buried wire
1.
Dig the ground in a regular and symmetrical manner with respect to the
line traced on the ground.
2.
Position the wire in a clockwise direction along the track at a depth of a
couple of centimetres (around 2÷3 cm (0.7874÷ 1.1811 ")). Do not bury
the wire deeper than 5 cm, so as not to reduce the quality and intensity
of the signal picked up by the robot.
3.
During the laying of the wire, it may be necessary to secure it in some
points with the pegs provided in order to hold it in place when covering
with the ground.
4.
Cover all the wire with soil and make sure it remains taut in the ground.
Joining of the perimeter wire
Important
A buried wire or a wire laid on the ground can be joined to
other wires having the same characteristics (see fi gure).
When joining the two wires, make sure to use self-sticking
tape (for example, 3M Scotch 23). Do not use insulating
tape or any other type of joining devices (wire terminals,
clamps, etc.).
