Step 5: Place the Boundary Flags

The boundary flags are visual reminders for your pet of where the boundary zone is located. The receiver collar will activate within
0.6 m to 1 m of the boundary flags.
1. Using the test light, with the static stimulation level set at 2 or greater, hold the receiver collar at your pet's neck height with logo side facing
away from the transmitter.
2. Walk towards the boundary zone until the receiver collar beeps and the test light flashes (5A).
3. Place a boundary flag in the ground (5B).
4. Walk back into the pet area until the beeping stops.
5. Repeat this process around the boundary zone until it is marked with boundary flags every 3 m.
The boundary flags may be in different parts of the boundary zone and may not be in a line. The boundary zone is 0.6 m to 1 m wide.

Step 6: Fit the Receiver Collar

Important: The correct fit and placement of your receiver collar is important for effective training. The contact points must
have direct contact with your pet's skin on the underside of his neck.
Please read and follow the instructions in this manual. Correct fit of the collar is important. A collar worn for too long
or made too tight on the pet's neck may cause skin damage, ranging from redness to pressure ulcers; this condition
is commonly known as bed sores.
• Avoid leaving the collar on the dog for more than 12 hours per day.
• When possible, re-position the collar on your pet's neck every 1 to 2 hours.
• Check the fit to prevent excessive pressure; follow the instructions in this manual.
• Never connect a lead to the electronic collar; it will cause excessive pressure on the contacts.
• When using a separate collar for a lead, do not put pressure on the electronic collar.
• Wash the dog's neck area and the contacts of the collar weekly with a damp cloth.
• Examine the contact area daily for signs of a rash or a sore.
• If a rash or sore is found, discontinue use of the collar until the skin has healed.
• If the condition persists for over 48 hours, see your veterinary surgeon.
• For additional information on bed sores and pressure necrosis, please visit our website.
These steps will help keep your pet secure and comfortable. Millions of pets are comfortable while they wear stainless
steel contacts. Some pets are sensitive to contact pressure. You may find after some time that your pet is very tolerant of
the collar. If so, you may relax some of these precautions. It is important to continue daily checks of the contact area.
If redness or sores are found, discontinue use until the skin has fully healed.
