3.5.4 Laying the boundary wire
If you intend to staple down the boundary wire:
•
Cut the grass very low with a standard lawnmower
or a trimmer where the wire is to be laid. It will then
be easier to lay the wire close to the ground and the
risk of the robotic lawnmower cutting the wire or
damaging the insulation of the wire is reduced.
•
Make sure to lay the boundary wire close to the
ground and secure the pegs close together. The
cable must lie close to the ground so as not to be cut
before the grass roots have grown over it. Mowing
the grass too low right after the installation can
damage the wire insulation. Damage to the
insulation may not cause disruptions until several
weeks or months later. To avoid this, always select
the maximum cutting height the first weeks after
installation and then lower the height one step at a
time every second week until the desired cutting
height has been reached.

•
Use a hammer to knock the pegs into the ground.
Exercise care when knocking the pegs and make
sure the wire is not under strain. Avoid sharp bends.
If the boundary wire is to be buried:
•
Make sure to lay the boundary wire at a minimum of
1 cm / 0.4 in. and a maximum of 20 cm / 8 in. in the
ground. The wire can be buried for instance using an
edge cutter or a straight spade.
Remarque : Extra wire must not be placed in coils
outside the boundary wire. This can disrupt the robotic
lawnmower.
3.5.4.1 Eyelet for connecting the guide wire
To facilitate the connection of the guide wire to the
boundary wire, it is recommended to create an eyelet
with about 20 cm / 8 in. of extra boundary wire at the
point where the guide wire will later be connected. It is a
good idea to plan where the guide wire will be placed
before laying out the boundary wire. See
boundary wireà la page18 .
3.5.4.2 Rallongement du câble périphérique
MISE EN GARDE : Des câbles doubles, ou un
bloc à borne à vis isolé avec du ruban, ne
constituent pas des jonctions satisfaisantes.
L'humidité du sol peut causer l'oxydation du
câble et, au bout de quelque temps, la rupture
du circuit.
Utilisez un raccord d'origine si le câble périphérique
n'est pas assez long et doit être rallongé. Il est étanche
et offre une connexion électrique fiable.
Insérez les deux extrémités du câble dans le raccord.
Vérifiez que les câbles sont insérés complètement dans
le raccord, de sorte que les extrémités soient visibles à
