Quick Start Guide Follow Page Numbers For Detailed Instructions Step 1: Design Your Fence. Have the local utility companies mark your underground lines; in most communities this is a free service. On a sheet of paper, sketch your hosue and your yard. Draw a line around your property that represents the containment area for your dog, avoiding underground utility lines. Where it is not possible to avoid utility lines, run your wire perperdicular to the underground lines. Page 5. Step 2: Install the Wall-mount transmitter. Locate the transmitter indoors on an exterior wall near an AC power outlet; inside a garage or basement is ideal. The containment twisted wire will need to run from the transmitter and pass through a window or small drilled hole to the outdoors. Page 6. Step 3: Lay Out the Fence Wire. Run the containment wire around the property as outlined in your plan. Use gradual rounded corners with wide radiuses. Avoid sharp (90 degrees) angles. Page 6. Step 4: Final Connections. Splice each end of your pet fencing loop wires to the twisted wire. You must use the supplied waterproof splices. Connect the lead ends of the twisted wire to the wall mount transmitter. Plug in the AC adapter and connect it to the transmitter. Turn the transmitter ON. The transmitter's green light should illuminate, indicating successful continuous loop. Page 7. Step 5: Charge Collar. Choose a location close to a door that you and yoyr dog use regularly and plug in the wall charger. Position the collar in the charging cradle. The collar fits in the cradle with the collar light to your left and with the contacts that touch your dog's skin facing down. The collar's light glows red while charging, green when charging is complete. Page 8. Step 6: Test Your Fence.Set the FIELD WIDTH ADJUSTMENT knob inside the transmitter to the 9 o'clock position. Hold the supplied test light across the skin contacts and walk the dog's collar up to the fence wire. Listen for the warning tone and look for the test light to illuminate. You should receive a signal 8 to 12 feet from the wire. To increase field width, rotate the adjustment knob clockwise. Test the collar in different places around the fenced area to verify the range is consistent. Page 8. Step 7: Bury Fence Wire. Dig trench about 3-inches deep, using straight edge spade or gas-powered edger. Digging the trench at an angle helps keep the wire in the ground where you place it. Place training flags at edge of selected boundary field where the warning tone is first heard, NOT at the wire. Page 9. Step 8: Train Your Dog. Watch the training DVD and follow the training steps outlined in the separate Training Trouble Shooting Guide. Your dog may show good initial response to the training; be sure to follow the training procedure for several weeks. The convenience that your new fence offers plus the added safety for your dog and family are well worth the time invested.
