•
Make a mark on the blueprint where to put
the charging station, the reference station, the
maintenance point, the transport paths and the
virtual boundaries for the work areas and stay-out
zones.
•
Follow the instructions for distances between
obscuring objects.
•
Fill in holes in the lawn to make it level.
•
Cut the grass before you install the product. Make
sure that the grass is maximum 10 cm / 4 in.
Note:
The first weeks after installation the sound level
when the product cuts the grass can be higher than
usual. The sound level decreases after some time.
39.4 To examine where to put the
reference station
CAUTION:
If there is a lightning rod
near by, do not install the reference station
higher than the lightning rod.
CAUTION:
Do not install the reference
station on a flagpole. Movements of the
reference station will affect the correction
data sent to the product with the accurate
position.
•
Install the reference station on a fixed object that
cannot move or rotate.
•
Install the reference station on a post or a wall. The
post must be 32-55 mm / 1.26-2.16 in. in diameter
to fit the attachments on the reference station.
Note:
If the reference station is installed on a
wall the top of the reference station must be above
the wall. Metal objects can cause interference with
the reference station signal.
•
Make sure that the reference station has full view
of the sky. It is necessary that minimum 135
degrees of the sky has a full view. We recommend
that the sky has a full view in all directions more
than 10° in elevation angle.

•
Install the reference station at minimum 2 m / 6.5
ft. height.
•
The maximum distance between the reference
station and the product is 500 m / 1640 ft. when
free line of view. Objects between the reference
station and product decreases the distance.
39.5 To examine where to put the
power supply
•
Put the power supply in an area with a roof and
protection from the sun and rain.
•
Put the power supply in an area with good airflow.
•
Use a residual-current device (RCD) when you
connect the power supply to the power outlet.
•
Extend the low-voltage cable if necessary. The
low-voltage cable can be extended up to 100 m /
328 ft.
39.6 To examine where to put the
charging station
•
You can put the charging station in the work
area or not in the work area. No transport path
is necessary if the charging station is put in the
work area (A). No transport path is necessary if
the product is fully in the work area when it is at
the charging station docking point. If the charging
station and docking point (B) are not in the work
area, you must install a transport path (C).
