Boundary cable
- Use the measuring tool to maintain 20 cm between the cable and the boundary (30cm for ULTRA 2000m2)
- Place the cable pegs approximately 80 cm apart. Adjust closer if the ground is uneven.
- The boundary cable must not exceed 300 m.
- Ensure at least 1 metre between the boundary cables if both you and your neighbour have robotic lawn mowers.
- Place the charging station at least 10 metres away from your neighbour's boundary cable.
- If your neighbour's robotic lawn mower is from a different manufacturer, maintain at least 2 metres distance from their boundary cable.
If an obstacle is level with the ground and safe for the mower to drive over, such as a driveway or pavement, only 8 cm of space is required between it and the boundary cable.
Setting up islands and requirements for narrow passages
Note: If you do not want the mower to enter certain areas of the lawn, such as flower beds, bushes or trees, you can create an "island" with the boundary cable. The mower can pass through narrow passages that are at least 0.8 metres wide.
Ensure that the boundary cable is completely straight at each corner, and that all angles formed by the boundary cable are 90° or greater.
If the garden pond or swimming pool does not have a high edge (at least 10 cm), it must be enclosed with boundary cable or fencing.
The boundary cable must be placed at least 1 metre from the water's edge instead of the normal 20 cm, to prevent the robot from slipping over the edge in wet weather.
