Boundary on Slopes
- Maximum Slope: The robotic lawnmower can handle slopes of up to 35% (20°).
- Warning: Avoid using the robotic lawnmower on slopes steeper than this.
- Slope Calculation: The slope in percentage is calculated as the height difference in centimetres between two points with a distance of 100 centimetres.
- Upper Boundary: Must not be placed across a slope over 35% (20°). Must be at least 30 cm from obstacles.
- Lower Boundary: Must not be placed across a slope over 17% (10°). Must be at least 40 cm from obstacles.
- Risk: If the lower boundary is placed across a steeper slope, the robotic lawnmower may slip out of the working area, especially if the grass is wet.
The robotic lawnmower can pass through narrow passages that meet these requirements:
- Passage Length: Maximum 8 metres.
- Distance Between Boundary Cables: At least 60 cm.
- Note: If the distance is less than 60 cm, the signal may be disrupted, which can affect the robotic lawnmower's function.
Paved Paths at Level:
- Ensure: that the paths are level with the lawn, so the robotic lawnmower can drive over them.
- Boundary Cable: Can be placed under the paving stones, if they are a maximum of 5 cm thick.
- Placement of Boundary Cable: If cutting close to the path, the cable should be laid 10 cm from the paving stones.
- Inclusion of Paving: The paving must be included in the 30 cm.
