Possible Causes
Boundary wire too close to metal fencing, Electrical interference from nearby power cables, Boundary signal level too low
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn OFF the mower and unplug the dock before modifying the boundary wire.
- Increase distance from metal: Re‑route boundary wire at least 30–50 cm away from metal fences, rebar, or buried power lines.
- Check wire depth: Ensure the boundary wire is buried or pegged at the recommended depth; too deep can weaken the signal.
- Inspect dock connections: Confirm that the boundary wire is correctly connected to the dock terminals and that there are no loose strands.
- Short loop test: Use a short test loop at the dock to verify that the mower reliably detects the boundary in a controlled setup.
