3 Installation
3.1 Introduction - Installation
WARNING: Read and understand the
safety chapter before you install the
product.
CAUTION: Use original spare parts
and installation material.
Note: Refer to www.husqvarna.com for more
information about installation.
3.2 Main components for installation
The installation involves the following
components:
• A robotic lawn mower that mows the lawn
automatically.
• A charging station, which has 3 functions:
• To send control signals along the
boundary wire.
• To send control signals along the guide
wire so that the product can be send to
specific remote areas in the garden and
can find its way back to the charging
station.
• To charge the product.
• A power supply, which is connected to the
charging station and a 100-240V wall
socket.
• Loop wire, which is laid around the work
area and around objects and plants that the
product must not run into. The loop wire is
used both as boundary wire and guide wire.
3.3 General preparations
CAUTION: Holes with water in the
lawn can cause damage to the
product.
Note: Read through the Installation chapter
before beginning the installation. How the
installation is done affects how the product
performs. It is therefore important to plan the
installation carefully.
• Make a blueprint of the work area and
include all obstacles. This makes it easier to
see the ideal positions for the charging
station, the boundary wire and the guide
wire.
• Make a mark on the blueprint where to put
the charging station, the boundary wire and
the guide wire.
• Make a mark on the blueprint where the
guide wire connects to the boundary wire.
Refer to
To install the guide wire on page
23
.
• Fill in holes in the lawn.
• 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
perceived sound level when cutting the grass
may be higher than expected. When the product
has cut the grass for some time, the perceived
sound level is much lower.
3.4 Before the installation of the wires
You can select to attach the wires with stakes or
bury them. You can use the 2 procedures for the
same work area.
• Bury the boundary wire or the guide wire if
you are going to use a dethatcher on the
work area. If not, attach the boundary wire
or guide wire with stakes.
3.4.1 To examine where to put the charging
station
• Keep a minimum 3 m / 10 ft. of free space in
front of the charging station.
• Keep a minimum of 1.5 m / 5 ft. of free
space to the right and to the left of the
charging station.
• Put the charging station near a power outlet.
• Put the charging station on a level surface.
