Important: This is a MowerFixAI installation workflow, not a replacement for the product manual. Exact cable offsets, station clearances, slope limits, electrical requirements and positioning accessories vary by model/year. Follow the manufacturer manual where it differs.
Step-by-step installation
- Step 1. Survey the lawn and read the exact operator/installation manual for the model before placing cable.
- Step 2. Choose and install the charging station on suitable level ground with safe mains power and the clearances required by the manufacturer.
- Step 3. Lay the perimeter/boundary wire around the work area and protected obstacles using the model-specific edge offsets; create islands/passages as required.
- Step 4. Install guide wire(s) or additional beacons/accessories if the model requires them, then connect all leads to the charging station exactly as labelled.
- Step 5. Charge and start the mower, pair the official app if supported, complete PIN/date/time/calibration steps, and verify the loop signal.
- Step 6. Test edges, passages, docking and remote areas under supervision before burying cable or making the installation permanent.
Before the first unattended mow
- Confirm blades and underside are clear and guards/covers are fitted.
- Verify charging and docking repeatedly.
- Check boundaries/no-go zones beside roads, water, drops, steps and public areas.
- Supervise the first full mowing cycle and correct any unsafe or unreliable area before normal operation.
