Temporarily secure the end of the loop wire to a peg or other object at
the charging station.
Lay out the loop wire in a counter-clockwise direction alone the planned
boundary of the operating area taking into consideration the rules in
Table 1 until you return to the charging station.
If you are going to install a guide wire, create an eyelet with about 8
inch of extra boundary wire at the point where the guide wire will later
be connected.
See Installing a Guide Wire on page 16 for more information.
If the boundary wire is too short, use provided splice and guide wire
connectors to splice additional boundary wire as follows:
1
Insert both ends of the boundary wire into the splice and guide
wire connector. Check that the wires are fully inserted into the
splice and guide wire connector so that the ends are visible
through the splice and guide wire connector.
2
Squeeze down the button on top of the splice and guide wire
connector fully using a polygrip until you hear a click.
Lay down the loop wire reel at the charging station.
Go back around the boundary of the operating area and secure the
boundary wire either using pegs or buried in the ground. Pegs are
recommended since this allows for adjustment during the first few
weeks of operation.
When securing the boundary wire with pegs:
•
Cut the grass very low with a standard lawnmower or a trimmer
where the wire is to be laid.
•
Lay the boundary wire on the ground and secure with pegs
close together.
•
Push or hammer the pegs into the ground.
Do not push the pegs so far into the ground so that they strain the
boundary wire.
When burying the boundary wire:
•
Bury the boundary wire 0.4 inch—8 inch into the ground.
When the boundary wire is completely laid out and secured, install end
loop wire connectors as follows:
Open the loop wire connector and place the wire in the loop wire
1
connector grip.
Press the loop wire connectors together using a polygrip until you
2
hear a click.
Cut off any surplus boundary wire 0.4 inch-1 inch above each connector.
