9.1 Notes on the docking station
Requirements for the docking station
location:
–
Protected, shady.
Direct sunlight can lead to increased
temperatures in the machine and longer
battery charging times.
A canopy top available as an accessory
can be mounted on the docking station.
This provides better protection for the
robotic mower against the weather.
–
Easily visible.
The docking station should be easily
visible in its chosen location to prevent
the risk of tripping over it.
–
In the immediate vicinity of a suitable
socket.
The mains connection must be close
enough to the docking station that the
respective power cables can be
connected to both the docking station
and the mains connection – do not
change the power cable of the power
supply unit.
A socket with overvoltage protection is
recommended.
–
Free from sources of interference
.
Metal, iron oxides and magnetic or
electrically conductive materials as well
as old perimeter wire installations can
interfere with the mower's operation. It
is recommended to remove these
sources of interference.
–
Level and flat.
Preparatory measures:
●
Mow the lawn using a conventional
lawn mower prior to initial installation
(ideal grass height 6 cm or less).
●
In the case of a hard and dry surface,
water the mowing area lightly in order to
make it easier to drive in the fixing pins.
Mowing areas must not overlap. Maintain
a minimum clearance of
≥
1 m
between
the perimeter wires of two mowing areas.
The docking station must not be inclined
by more than 8 cm rearwards or 2 cm
forwards. Never bend the floor plate. Any
unevenness must be removed under the
floor plate so that it fully contacts the
ground.
Installation options:
The docking station can be installed
internally and externally.
Internal docking station:
The docking station (1) is installed within
the mowing area (A), right at the edge.
There must be a free, level area (2) with a
radius of at least 1 m in front of the docking
station (1). Remove any bumps or
depressions.
