BEEFORE YOU START
WARNING: Read ALL these instructions. Only use electric fence energizer products for the purpose intended as de ned in this manual.
This controller must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing a path of low resistance for the electric current. Grounding this product is provided by properly installed ground rod electrically connected to the fence controller output ground terminal.
To reduce risk of electrical shock do not remove cover. Refer to service personnel.
Never electrify barbed wire! The barbs may injure animals if they become tangled in the fence.
Always disconnect battery-powered fence controllers from the battery before recharging the battery. Failure to do so may damage your fence controller and battery charger, and void your warranty.
Never run more than on fence controller on the same fence line at one time. The pulses of short shock solid state fence controllers will be too close together and may be hazardous to animals and people. It will also damage your fence controllers.
Instruct all persons how to disconnect a fence controller in case of emergency. Post signs on electric fences along public roads or near residences.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock! Do not connect an eletric fence to any other device such as a cattle trainer or a poultry trainer. Otherwise lightning striking your fence will be conducted to all other devices.
WARNING: Energizers requiring an external ground must be properly grounded.
WARNING: Many AC energizers are internally grounded and are equipped with polarized 2 prong
Install fence lines powered by seperate fence energizers far enough apart to prevent contact with both fence lines at the same time. Simultaneously touching two fences powered by seperate energizers could be hazardous.
WARNING: Users of electric fencing should avoid contacting the fence with the head, mouth, neck or torso. Users should not climb over, through or under an electric fence. Please use a gate or an area designed as a crossing point.
WARNING: Do not connect this energizer to any mains-operated equipment.
ENERGIZER ELECTRIC FENCING OVERVIEW
How Electric Fencing Works
Fence Energizer
20 KV Insulated Hook-up Wire
20 KV Insulated Hook-up Wire
Ground System
Moist Soil Copper or Galvanized metal ground rods driven at least 6'
deep, spaced 10' apart.
The system works when an animal provides an electrical path by touching the fence wire and the earth simultaneously. The electricity then passes through the animal, into the soil and back to the ground rods, which are connected to the fence energizer. At that point the circuit is complete and the animal instantly receives an eletrical shock.
