ANDOM OPERATION INSIDE INDUCTIVE BOUNDARY WIRE
The boundary wire and pegs inside the box, once laid out following the edge of your
lawn with a min. distance of 30 cm and connected to the charging station, produce an
inductive current loop that your new robot will recognize. It chooses its direction
randomly. Once the robotic mower detects properly installed boundary wire, it will
turn around and head to a different direction inside the area. T h u s , it will mow the
designated area completely.

OBSTACLE RECOGNITION AND BOUNDARY WIRE ISLANDS
If the robotic mower meets an obstacle inside its working area, it will stop, move
backwards and turn to mow in another direction.
The built-in obstacle sensors trigger from a predefined impact force threshold, so that
housing vibrations in driving mode do not lead to faulty triggering. The pushing force
is generated by the kinetic energy of the driven rear wheels. However, in the case of
slippery surfaces, e.g. loose soil or wet grass, the wheels can turn without grip before
reaching the impact force threshold. This can leave traces on earth. Likewise, the outer
