lawn.
PB 13
Welcome to a friendly
home
Congratulations on your purchase! You are just a few steps away
from meeting your best team player. Very soon you will come to count
on your new friend to do a perfect job.
The mower will independently depart from its Base Station on
predetermined days and times, mow your lawn and return to base for
charging.
A preinstalled perimeter wire sets the boundaries (a “virtual wall”) for
your mower. It will be laid around the edges of your lawn, and objects
that you want to protect.
The mower moves randomly within its working area, as defined by
the perimeter wire. This kind of random movement provides the
perfect cut and ensures complete coverage of your lawn.
14 15
In addition, it centers itself on top of the perimeter wire to ensure
accurate, flawless edging.
Good-looking lawns are achieved by consistent mowing, which is
exactly what a robotic mower provides.
After following the clear installation instructions, you will be ready to
enjoy your free time, while your new friend looks after your lawn.

TIPS
Soft Obstacles
Soft obstacles are flower beds,
ponds or small trees. They need to
be protected by creating Perimeter
Islands.
OBSTACLES
Now you’re ready to install the Perimeter Wire.
Let’s take it step by step.
... A sunny day and a sunny mood
:
)
First things first: obstacles and slopes
Before you put a single peg into the ground, take note of any
obstacles or slopes.
24 25
The slope is too steep if...
The mower tilts off the ground while climbing it. Exclude such
slopes from the mower cutting area.
SLOPES
Hard Obstacles
Obstacles that are vertical, rigid
and higher than 15 cm (6 in), such as
trees or telephone poles, do not need
to be protected by the Perimeter
Wire. The mower will bump into them
and turn away..
Slopes along the edge
To ensure your mower doesn’t slip off the lawn, especially
when the grass is wet, the Perimeter Wire must exclude a
slope along the edge of your lawn with an incline of over 10% -
that is, 10 cm rise per 1 m [4 in rise per 3 ft].
TIP
Slopes within the Lawn
Your mower can mow areas within the
lawn with a slope of up to 35%
[35 cm rise per 1 m/14 in rise per 3 ft].
Max 35%
Less than 10% More than 10%
26 27
A. Make a good start
Before you begin, walk along the edge of your
lawn and plan how to set up the
Perimeter Wire. Take note of
all obstacles and slopes.
Peg
Once a tail is made, put the
first peg into the ground to
secure the end of the wire
Perimeter
Wire
Pull out approx. 30 cm (1 ft) of wire through the hole in the spools
plastic covering and peg the beginning of the wire to the ground where
you intend to install your Base Station.
Start unwinding the wire counter-clockwise around the lawn,
starting at the Base Station’s location.
Lay it loosely along the perimeter as you walk along the lawn edge. If you
get to any area/object that needs special care, make sure you carefully lay
the Perimeter Wire as described in the following sections.

28 29
B. Maintain Proper Distance
The Perimeter Wire is secured to the ground by the pegs supplied with
the product. Use the RoboRuler to determine the distances you should
leave between the Perimeter Wire and the lawn’s edge and obstacles.
Insert pegs every few meters / feet and at corners. At this
early stage, set a minimal number of pegs. You will insert all
necessary pegs later.
Pull the wire tight while hammering the pegs to their final
depth in the ground.
Take care not to damage irrigation pipes.
TIPS
28 29
20 cm (8in)
Leave a minimum of 1.2 m (4 ft) if the
edge of the lawn borders water.
When the edge is flat or a drop, use
the short distance of the RoboRuler.
When the edge is a wall, use the
longer distance of the RoboRuler.

It is not necessary to bury the Perimeter Wire, though you may
do so, up to 5 cm (2 in) deep.
Burying the wire along exposed areas, such as pavements, is
usually recommended.
If additional Perimeter Wire is required in order to complete
the setup, you can extend it using the waterproof Wire
Connectors provided. (See Section “Splicing the Perimeter
Wire” at the very end).
TIPS
C. Make Smooth Turns
Maintain a 45° angle at all left-turn corners when laying the
wire along the perimeter.

Wires leading to and from an island should be fastened with
the same peg
Perimeter Islands should either be rectangular or round
Set the Perimeter Wire
clockwise around the
obstacle, otherwise
the mower will drive
into the Perimeter
Island or won’t be
able to mow the
area around it
properly.
TIPS
D. Protect Soft Obstacles
Objects such as flower beds, ponds, or small trees must be
protected by setting Perimeter Islands.
Keep min. 1 m (3.3 ft) between
islands; if obstacles are closer
together, use one island
If the distance between an island and the
perimeter wire is lower than 1 m (3.3 ft),
make the obstacle part of lawn’s edge.

E. Finish Installing the Perimeter Wire
Insert the remaining pegs along the Perimeter Wire, approx.
1 m (3.3 ft) apart.
Hammer the extension cable into the ground so it’s not a
tripping hazard.
Don’t worry if your lawn looks patchy for the first few days. It
will even out after the first few mows!
The Safety Switch should be set to ‘On’ during charging
Don’t touch the blades
Never mow when people, especially children or pets,
are nearby
Make sure the lawn is clear of debris. The limited warranty
of your mower does not cover damages caused by objects
left in the lawn.
F. Charge your mower
Place your mower on the Base Station and let it fully charge before its
first mow (up to 24 hours). Once it is fully charged,
it willl depart automatically according to its mowing schedule.

Adding Sub Zones
If your lawn has additional zones and they are connected to
your main zone by a narrow passage (we call such zones
“Sub Zones”), you need to tell your mower how to get to
these zones.
To do this, press “Settings” on mower’s panel for more than
3 seconds. Scroll to get to menu P022. The table below
describes how to use this menu to program a Sub Zone.
Menu Setting Description
P022 Add Sub-Zone
Upon entering the menu A1/A2/A3/A4 is displayed. This
is a name of the next available Sub Zone, which you can
program. Press OK
If the mower is currently not at the Base Station, a
message U044 (“Place the mower in the Base Station”)
will be displayed. Place the mower in the Base Station
and press OK.
The mower will travel along the perimeter wire to the
Sub Zone on its own.
When the mower is at least 5 m (16 ft) inside the Sub
Zone, press STOP and select the area size of the Sub
Zone. Press OK.
The distance to the Sub-Zone’s entry point can be
updated later through menu P023
50 51
Are there any Separated Zones?
For lawns that have completely noncontiguous Separated Zones,
the area size of these zones needs to be set separately.
To do this, press “Settings” on the mower’s panel for more than
3 seconds. Scroll to get to the menu P014.
The table below describes how to use this menu to program
a Separated Zone:
Splicing the Perimeter Wire
(as needed)
Insert both wire ends into
the leftmost and rightmost
positions on the connector.
Verify that the wires are fully
inserted into the connector.
Use a pair of pliers to press
the button on top of the
connector. The button should
be fully pressed, without

Automatic
operation
The Area size setting automatically determines the required
mowing time for your lawn - the duration of a “Mowing Cycle”
The mower usually performs several consecutive mowing
operations until it completes a full Mowing Cycle
Each mowing operation starts at predetermined times, once
the mower is fully charged
You can restrict automatic operation at particular times via
the Inactive Time setting
Once a Mowing Cycle is completed, the mower will stay in the
Base Station until the next cycle begins
The interval between mowing cycles is defined by the Mowing
Frequency setting
If required, extra mowing time can be added via the Mowing
Hours setting to improve mowing results.
Learn how to configure automatic operation and manually
bypass/override it when needed.

Frequently
asked questions
Mower does not dock properly and sometimes misses Base
Station’s contacts
The entrance to the Base Station is not flat. Fill some ground
to flatten the lawn around the Base Station to allow smooth
entrance. Make sure the Perimeter Wire is straight and centered
or shifted 4-5 cm to the left in case of External Installation all the
way under the Base Station. Clean the Front Wheel and make sure
it rotates freely on its axis.Make sure that the base Station is placed on
a relatively level ground.
The rain sensor stopped working
After a certain period of time in outdoor conditions the rain sensor’s
pins may become oxidized and thus less sensitive to rain. Try to
scrubbing the pins with a rugged damp or scotch.
Patchy and uneven mowing
Minimize Inactive Time for faster Mowing Cycle and even mowing
result. If it is the fast growing season - reduce the time between
mowing cycles via the Mowing Frequency setting. Increase
the allocated mowing time via the Mowing Hours setting to
compensate for lawn’s shape complexity.
Mower does not depart from base for a long time
Press and hold the ‘Home’ button’ for 1 second while the mower is in
the Base Station. The non-depart reason code will be displayed for 3
seconds. Refer to our Help Center online for a detailed description of
non-depart codes.
Mower operates at wrong times
Verify that the time on the mower is set correctly. The time
