5. INSTALLATION
a) Installing the charger base
1.The charging base should be installed on a level, sturdy surface in a location where it can be conveniently con-
nected to the power supply
2.Allow for at least 2 m of free space around the base clear of any obstacles or angles.The base must be posi-
tioned at least 40 cm from the edge of the lawn. (Fig. 4).
3. Start by securing the boundary wire under the base station then fastening the base to the ground with the four
nails provided. (Fig. 5). Centre the base on the wire and allow a reserve of at least 15 cm to secure the wire to
the back of the base.
Note: The mower reverses and moves forward to the right.The grass to be cut should therefore be to the right of the
base station. (Fig. 6).
b) Installing the boundary wire (g. 7)
1.The boundary wire starts at the back of the charging base, passes under the charging base, runs counterclock-
wise and ends at the back of the base.Allow a reserve of at least 15 cm at each end to secure the wire to the
back of the base.
2. The minimum passage width is 0.5 meters (see g.14 for more detail).
3. Right angles (90°) are prohibited; the angle must be at least 125°.
4. Flowerbeds and/or bushes and trees in the mowing area may be blocked off with the wire. Be careful not to
cross the wire and leave at most a 1-cm gap for the section that goes to the owerbed.
5.The wire must be placed 30 cm from the edge of the lawn, except for the 2 meters in front of the charging base
which must be 40 cm from the edge of the lawn. (Fig. 8).
6. Firmly secure the wire to the ground with the pegs provided.The recommended space between pegs is 2 to 3
meters.The pegs can be placed closer together if the terrain requires it (change of direction, hole, etc.). (Fig. 9).
7. The wire must be taut and perfectly ush to the ground so that it cannot be cut when mowing.
8. Once the entire wire is secured, strip 2 cm of both ends of the wire.
9. Unscrew the wire connectors at the back of the base. Connect the end of the wire passing under the base to
the red connector. Connect the other end to the black connector. (Fig. 10)
Note: the boundary wire has a polarity. Be sure to respect the wiring.
10. Firmly tighten the connectors to hold the wire in place.
Note: There is no need to bury the cord. It will settle into place in time.We therefore recommend that you start with
high-level mowing.
c) Turning on and charging
1. Start by connecting the supplied power adapter to the back of the charging base.
2. Connect the adapter to the mains.
Note: The green LED on the base should light up. If the red LED on the base is blinking, it means there is an issue with
the wire loop. Check that the wire is fastened firmly to the base and that it is not cut.
3.To charge the mower battery, connect the two contact pins on the front of the mower with the contact strips
on the base. (Fig. 11).The red LED will light up.
4.The mower can also be charged directly by connecting the supplied charger to the back of the mower. (Fig.
12).
Note:
- Fully charge the battery before first use
- The power adapter must be fully connected to the base and firmly screwed into place.
- When the mower needs to recharge, it automatically returns to its charging base.
Note: the base’s contact strips are electrified (24V DC).To avoid short circuits, they must never be touched with a con-
ductive object or by a person when the base is powered up.
d) Setting the cutting height
The cutting height can be adjusted by changing the blades or adjusting their positions.There are three cutting
