STEP 7

Install the Boundary Wire

Before you begin installing the Boundary Wire, unplug the Fence Transmitter power adapter from
the outlet.

To Bury the Boundary Wire

Burying the Boundary Wire is recommended to protect it and prevent disabling the system.
1. Cut a trench 2.5 cm to 7.6 cm (1 in to 3 in) deep along your planned boundary.
2. Place the Boundary Wire into the trench maintaining some slack to allow it to expand and contract with
temperature variations.
3. Use a blunt tool such as a wooden paint stick to push the Boundary Wire into the trench. Be careful not to damage the
Boundary Wire insulation.

To Attach the Boundary Wire to an Existing Fence

The Boundary Wire of the Little Dog Deluxe In-Ground Fence™
can be attached to a chain link fence, split rail fence, or a
wooden privacy fence. The Boundary Wire can be attached as
high as needed. However, make sure the Boundary Width is set
at a high enough range for the pet to receive the signal. If using
a Double Loop with an existing fence at least 1.5 m (5 ft) tall,
run the Boundary Wire on top of the fence and return it on the
bottom of the fence to get the 1.5 m (5 ft) separation needed.
• Chain Link Fence (7A): Weave Boundary Wire through the
links or use plastic quick ties.
• Wooden Split Rail or Privacy Fence (7A): Use staples to
attach Boundary Wire. Avoid puncturing the insulation of the
Boundary Wire.
• Double Loop with an Existing Fence: Run Boundary Wire on
top of the fence and return it on the bottom of the fence to get the 1.5 m (5 ft) separation needed.
• Gate (Single Loop) (7B): Bury the Boundary Wire in the ground across the gate opening. Note: The signal is still active across
the gate. Your pet cannot pass through an open gate.
• Gate (Double Loop) (7B): Bury both Boundary Wires across the gate opening while keeping them at least
1.5 m (5 feet) apart.
To Cross Hard Surfaces (driveways, sidewalks, etc.)
• Concrete Driveway or Sidewalk (7C): Place the Boundary
Wire in a convenient expansion joint or create a groove using
a circular saw and masonry blade. Place the Boundary Wire
in the groove and cover with an appropriate waterproofi ng
compound. For best results, brush away dirt or other debris
before patching.
• Gravel or Dirt Driveway (7D): Place the Boundary Wire in
a PVC pipe or water hose to protect the Boundary Wire
before burying.
Follow all safety instructions
for your power tools. Be
sure to always wear your
safety goggles.
