4.1 Latausaseman sijoittaminen

Select a flat area with good access to a power outlet. The charging station should be placed on level ground, preferably in a shaded area to protect it from direct sunlight and heavy rain. Ensure there is at least 1 meter of clear space in front of the station and 0.5 meters on either side.

The boundary wire defines the mowing area for your robot. It can be laid on the surface and secured with pegs, or buried slightly below the surface.

1. Start laying the wire from the charging station.
2. Maintain a distance of approximately 30 cm from obstacles such as walls, fences, or flowerbeds. Use the provided ruler for accurate measurement.
3. Secure the wire with pegs every 80 cm to 1 meter, ensuring it is taut and flat against the ground.
4. Kytke rajakaapelin molemmat päät latausaseman liittimiin.
