Gardena R70Li ユーザーズマニュアル

68 - English 

Breaks in the loop wire are usually the result of 
unconscious physical damage to the wire such as 
when gardening with a shovel. In countries with ground 
frost, even sharp stones that move in the ground can 
damage the wire. Breaks can also be due to the high 
tension in the wire during installation.

Mowing the grass too low right after the installation can 
damage wire insulation. Certain damage to the 
insulation may not cause disruptions until several 
weeks or months later. To avoid this, always select the 
maximum cutting height the first weeks after 
installation and then lower the height one step at a 
time every second week until the desired cutting height 
has been reached.

A defective splicing of the loop wire can also lead to 
disruptions first several weeks after the splice was 
done. A faulty splice can, for example, be the result of 
the original coupler not being pressed together hard 
enough with a pair of pliers, or a coupler of lower 
quality than original coupler has been used. Please 
first check all known splices before further 
troubleshooting is done. 

A break can be located by gradually halving the 
distance of the loop wire where the break may have 
occurred until there is only a very short section of the 
wire left.

1.

Make sure the indicator lamp in the charging 
station flashes blue, which indicates a break in 
the boundary loop. See 9.2 Indicator lamp in the 
charging station on page 65.

2.

Check that the boundary wire connections to the 
charging station are properly connected and not 
damaged. Check that the indicator lamp in the 
charging station is still flashing blue.
