PARCMOW - BIGMOW Usual distances for the PARCMOW - BIGMOW (1) → These distances are used in several cases. Every terrain is different and it must be kept in mind that different constraints are found in each case. → During set up, the installer must work as follows: PARCMOW BIGMOW Reminder: Length of mowing: 105 cm; Length of machine: 120 cm. Reminder: Length of mowing: 65 cm; Length of machine: 95 cm. 1) Begin setting up the wire from the charging station.
PARCMOW - BIGMOW Usual distances for the PARCMOW - BIGMOW (2) → Obstacles : I. Located more than 1 m from the edge of the terrain: there are 2 solutions. 1. Either the wire passes normally (reminder: 45 cm) 2. Or the wire passes in front of the obstacle (the small plot behind the obstacle will not be mowed) II. Located less than 1 m from the edge of the terrain: the wire passes in front. Outside area I Lawn II.
PARCMOW - BIGMOW Setting up the peripheral wire: wire: Islands Islands (1) → Always limit the creation of islands. → When to create an island? 1. When the part to isolate is found near a flowerbed or a boundary and there is no physical barrier (e.g. a flowerbed in the middle of the garden). Lawn Boundary Cross-section view 1. When tree roots are flush to the lawn. Cross-section view → Alternative solution to creating an island? 1.
PARCMOW - BIGMOW Setting up the peripheral wire: wire: Islands Islands (2) → Distances regarding the peripheral wire: Case 1: distance less than 5 metres from wire to wire. Case 2: distance from 5 metres from wire to wire.
PARCMOW - BIGMOW Setting up the peripheral wire: wire: Islands Islands (3) → Island connector configuration: → The cable set up is the 1G1.5 mm² or the 3G1.5 mm², single strand wire. → The blue or black cable is used for the peripheral wire. → The red cable is used for the return from an island. When an island is created at more than 5 metres from the peripheral wire, the same sheath is used for the return of the signal. This enables the signal to be cancelled and the machine to cross.
PARCMOW - BIGMOW Setting up the charging station (1) For optimal operation, the charging station must be placed in the main area of the terrain, offering the greatest clearance possible.
PARCMOW - BIGMOW Setting up the charging station (2) → Cabling 1. Bring the cables back below the station (make the holes ad hoc). 2. Use the sheath (tube) of the peripheral wire to bring the peripheral wires to the station (avoid any contact with the ground). 3. Connections: Station →2008 *230V~: blue and orange wire *115V~: blue and green wire Station 2008 → *230V~: specific transformer *115V~: specific transformer Power supply connections 4.

PARCMOW - BIGMOW Important points to verify (1) • During set-up: 1. Place a 1.5 mm² single strand wire in a sheath along the terrain border. Use thermo retractable crimp-on connectors with resin. The cable is positioned between 2 and 5 cm deep. 2. Maximum 1000 metres of peripheral wire. 3. Avoid the creation of bottlenecks in the area where the machine moves around. 4. Avoid including an additional area in the work area by a very narrow passage (width of passage: min 5 metres). 5.
PARCMOW - BIGMOW Important points to verify (2) • During use: 1. Remove from the terrain any object that might block the cutting heads, e.g. tree branches, tools, planks of wood, bars… 2. Do not restart (several times!) the machine when there is a safety alert. 3. Do not carry the machine on a wheelbarrow, pallet truck… 4. The “systematic mode” option on a complex terrain will not operate properly because of the complexity of the terrain (the machine will not go everywhere). 5.
