11.6 Splicing the Perimeter Wire<br />
If the Perimeter Wire needs to be spliced, use the connectors<br />
supplied in the Robomow box. It is waterproof and gives a reliable<br />
electrical connection.<br />
IMPORTANT! Before slicing the Primeter Wire, disconnect the<br />
Power Box from the power outlet.<br />
1. Strip 1 cm (0.5 inch) of each wire end together and twist the<br />
stripped ends using pliers.<br />
2. Insert the twisted wires into the splicing connector.<br />
3. Screw the wire connector on the twisted wires. Make sure it<br />
is tightly secured.<br />
IMPORTANT! Neither twisted cables, nor a screw terminal<br />
insulated with insulation tape are a satisfactory splice. Soil<br />
moisture will cause such conductors to oxidize and will later lead<br />
to a broken circuit.<br />

11.7 Maintenance of the Base Station Area<br />
• Keep the Base Station entrance and area clean of leaves,<br />
sticks, twigs or any other debris that usually accumulates<br />
in such areas.<br />
• NEVER spray a water hose directly towards the Base<br />
Station.<br />
• Be careful when trimming around the Base Station with a<br />
powered weed trimmer as damage to the Extension Cable<br />
may occur.<br />
• In the event of damage to any part of the Extension Cable,<br />
stop the use of the <strong>mower</strong> and the Base Station. Disconnect<br />
the Extension Cable and replace it.<br />

Base Station /Perimeter Switch and the Power Box 230V/120V<br />
plug from the power outlet.<br />
