3.2 Installation of the charging
station
Ideal position for the charging station
Take the following aspects into consideration when
identifying the best location for the charging station:
• Allow for 3 metres of free space in front of the
charging station
• It must be possible to lay at least 1.5 metres of
boundary wire straight out to the right and left
of the charging station
• It must be close to a wall socket The supplied
low voltage cable is 10 metres long. A 20
meter low voltage cable is available to
purchase as an accessory. Contact GARDENA
Central Service for more information.
• A level surface to place the charging station on
• Protection from water spray for instance from
irrigation
• Protection from direct sunlight
• Place in the lower part of a working area that
has a major slope
• Possible requirement to keep the charging
station out of sight for outsiders
For an example of an ideal position of the charging
station, see
