Possible Causes

Guide wire not installed or broken, Boundary wire layout too complex, Station placed in a corner or narrow area, Home signal receiver weak

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF the mower before adjusting wires.

  • Check guide wire: If your Stiga model supports a guide wire, ensure it is connected correctly at the station and not broken along its path.
  • Relocate station: Place the charging station in an open, central area with a straight boundary wire in front, as per Stiga recommendations.
  • Simplify layout: Avoid narrow corridors and complex islands that confuse navigation. Adjust the boundary wire to create smoother shapes.
  • Increase home search time: If the menu allows, extend the time the mower spends following the boundary or guide wire when searching for home.
