A. Dog Doesn t Respond to Stimulus

- Adjust the collar fit.

- Trim the dog’s hair or use longer contact points

to make better skin contact.

- Recharge the battery in the collar receiver.

- Adjust the correction level.

B. System Test Procedures:

Whenever you experience a malfunction, you will

need to do a test loop to determine which component -

collar, wall transmitter or yard wire - is not working.

Follow these steps to perform the test loop procedure.

1. Make a test fence using at least 10 feet of

fencing wire(or use the ground wire).

2. Remove the existing boundary wire from your

wall transmitter.

3. Insert the two ends of the test fence wire into

the wall transmitter.

4. Turn the field width adjustment knob to the 9

o clock position or a low setting.

Note : If you alter the field adjustment knob by

turning it clockwise or counterclockwise, or by

removing it, you must check the signal field for the

desired setting.

When you are satisfied with the field width setting,

bury the fence wire below the grass and place the

flags at the distance where the test light comes on.
