QUICK TIPS
Before You Go Out:
•
Purchase and use only D.T. recommended GREEN and
YELLOW power loads. RED power loads are not rec-
ommended as they will cause faster wear and tear on
your unit and dummy.
•
Be familiar with the operation of your RDL and test your
unit (
see p.20-21
).
•
Make a checklist of needed items for your training ses-
sion (RDL, dummy, transmitter, protective eyewear,
hearing protection, power loads, batteries, etc.).
•
Make sure your dog is in proper condition for these train-
ing exercises.
At the Training Site:
•
Find a large open area where the operation of your RDL
will not be a disturbance to the public.
•
Always wear protective hearing/eye gear during use.
•
Make sure your dog is always under control when setting
and loading the RDL. Keep your dog away from the
RDL, especially when loaded.
•
Make sure your Remote Receiver unit is OFF and
unloaded when training is complete.
•
Take everything from your checklist with you when leav-
ing the training site (including empty shells).
After Your Training Session:
•
Again, make sure the Remote Receiver is OFF (or re-
move the batteries if storing for an extended period).
•
Follow all maintenance and storage instructions (
see
p.24
).
