Sloping Terrain In The Mowing Area; Installing Reserve Wire; Using Wire Connectors - Viking MI 422 Manuel D'utilisation

Route perimeter wire (1) at a clearance of
22 cm to the obstacle. To ensure that the
lawn edge is mown completely, the edging
stones must have a width of at least 20 cm
(clearance B). If wider edging stones are
laid, the lawn edge is cut even more
precisely.
Route the perimeter wire with a
greater clearance to the edging
stones around exterior and interior
corners. ( 9.1)
Use wider edging stones if
necessary.
11.13 Sloping terrain in the mowing
area
In order for the robotic mower to
automatically mow a slope in the mowing
area (incline up to 15°) without any trouble,
the perimeter wire must be installed in the
slope with a minimum clearance to the
edge of the incline.
124
Slope with an incline of 5° - 15°:
If there is a slope with an incline of 5° - 15°
in the mowing area, the perimeter wire can
be routed below the top edge of the slope
in the slope as shown. The minimum
clearance (0,5 m) from the top edge of the
slope to the perimeter wire must be taken
into account for trouble-free operation of
the robotic mower.
Slope with an incline > 15°:
If there is a slope with an incline > 15° in
the mowing area, it is recommended to
route the perimeter wire (1) in the flat area
before the top edge of the slope. The top
edge and area of the slope are not mown.

11.14 Installing reserve wire

Reserve wire installed at regular intervals
makes it easier to make any necessary
corrections such as subsequently
changing the position of the docking
station or the routing of the perimeter wire.
In particular, reserve wire should be
installed near difficult passages.
Route perimeter wire (1) as illustrated
between 2 fixing pins spaced approx. 1 m
apart. Attach the reserve wire to the
ground in the centre using a further fixing
pin.

11.15 Using wire connectors

In order to extend the perimeter wire or to
connect loose wire ends, only the gel-filled
wire connectors available as accessories
may be used. They prevent premature
wear (e.g. corrosion of the wire ends) and
ensure optimal connections.
Make a note of the positions of the wire
connectors on the sketch of the mowing
area. ( 11.2)
