There may be parts of your garden which will be challenging or even
impossible for your robot mower. Your robot mower will not stray beyond the
boundary wire you must lay around your garden. It will change direction on
making contact with things like:
•
Posts and poles (e.g. washing lines)
•
Fences and walls around trees
But it will need to be kept away from:
•
Dug borders
•
Trees with exposed roots
•
Flower beds
•
Ponds and water features
•
Excessively uneven terrain.
The wire must be kept taut and never be allowed to loop or cross over itself.
Ideally if ground is particularly uneven the wire can be buried up to 40 mm
deep and pegged down to secure. This can be achieved easily with a manual
edging tool. If this is not desired or possible then the wire should be firmly
pegged around the garden with pegs at a minimum of 1 m intervals, keeping
the cable taut to avoid it being cut by the robot mower, more so at corners and
over uneven terrain. The cable should be positioned a minimum of 35 cm from
the edge of the garden, as the robot mower will overlap the wire, although it
will not stray past it.
On corners the wire should not be laid at a sharp angle or right angle, but
curved or a series of obtuse angles. The robot mower can detect a signal from
the wire from as much as 18 m away. It should be noted that due to this set
up some areas of the lawn will not get mowed such as outside the perimeter
edges. These can be maintained using a suitable grass trimmer. If the ground
where the wires are to be laid is particularly dry and the soil hard from lack of
rain, it will help to thoroughly water the garden before attempting to lay your
perimeter wire.
