2. Press the connectors together using a pair of pliers.
3. Cut off any surplus boundary wire. Cut 1 to 2 cm above the
connectors.
4. Press the connectors onto the contact pins, marked A, on
the charging station. It is important that the right-hand
wire is connected to the right-hand contact pin, and the
left-hand wire to the left-hand pin.
1. Run the guide wire through the slot at the bottom of the
charging station.
2. Fit the connector to the guide wire in the same way as for
the boundary wire, according to the instructions above.
3. Fasten the connector to the contact pin marked Guide on
the charging station.
4. Lay the guide wire at least 2 metres straight out from the
front edge of the charging station.
5. Run the guide wire to the point on the boundary loop the
connection will be made. Avoid laying the wire at tight
angles.
6. Cut the boundary wire with a wire cutters at the centre of
the eyelet that was made in point 2.3.
7. Connect the guide wire to the boundary wire using the
accompanying couplers. Press the couplers completely
together with a pair of pliers.
