Stiga
Boundary Containment Failure
Robot mower leaves the boundary area and escapes the lawn without any error code.

Possible Causes
Boundary wire installed too low or too deep, Wire broken and re‑radiating signal, Station or loop polarity incorrect, Strong external magnetic fields
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the station before modifying the boundary wire.
- Check wire depth: Ensure the boundary wire is laid on the surface or shallowly buried (as per Stiga spec). Deep burial weakens the signal.
- Verify connections: Confirm the boundary wire ends are connected to the correct terminals on the station and that there are no unauthorized splices.
- Inspect for hidden breaks: Use a loop tester or AM radio to detect weak spots or breaks that may cause strange field patterns.
- Re‑lay critical sections: In areas where the mower escapes, re‑lay the wire closer to the edge and avoid running it parallel to power cables.
