2. Attaching Contact Points and Silicone Prongs
Select the appropriate contact points (short or long) based on your dog's coat thickness. For dogs with thicker coats, longer contact points may be necessary to ensure proper contact with the skin. Always attach the conductive silicone prongs (rubber caps) over the metal contact points for your dog's comfort and safety.
3. Fitting the Collar
Proper fit of the collar is crucial for effective operation and your dog's comfort. The collar is adjustable and suitable for all breeds weighing between 10-110 lbs.
- Place the receiver unit centrally on your dog's neck, just below the ears.
- Ensure the contact points are touching the skin. You may need to part your dog's fur to ensure good contact.
- The collar should be snug enough that two fingers can barely fit between the strap and your dog's neck. It should not be too tight to restrict breathing or too loose to move around.
- The nylon strap can be adjusted to fit. Excess strap can be cut off if desired.
