7 Positioning the docking station
► As a result of its design, the robot mower
leaves a strip with unmown lawn along unnavi‐
gable areas. This strip can be used, for exam‐
ple, to sow flower seeds and create areas with
blossoming vegetation for insects.
► If you want to mow without leaving an edge
along inaccessible areas: Install edging stones
or flagstones with a minimum width of
a = 24 cm along these areas.
