Solar Powered Mole & Snake Repellent GS-503
USER INSTRUCTION
Thanks for your purchasing our device. Please read and understand these instructions and keep
this manual for future reference.
The solar mole and snake repeller unit is designed to repel moles and snakes, by emitting a pulse
which moles and snakes feel as a vibration transmitted through the ground. Moles and Snakes
then perceive a danger zone causing them to evacuate the area, not so much a physical barrier,
but rather creating an area where the snakes do not want to be.
Operation
The repeller transmits its signal in all directions approx. 10ft (3m), they can be placed
approx. 20ft (6m) apart to get optimum coverage, it is always recommended to use two or
more units to get the best results. Place a unit close to retaining walls, rock gardens, old
sheds etc. to drive snakes out from their hiding places and away. When first installing the
units, keep children and animals away from the area for the first hour in case any snakes
are driven out of their hiding places.
The unit works with rechargeable batteries. The solar module runs the unit and charges
the battery during the day night-time operation is enabled by the batteries.
Installation procedure
1.
Press “ON” under the head of the unit, attach the small connectors on the
wires from the base of the head of the unit to the one from the spike section,
and attach the spike to the head of the unit. (The stick and the head should
be attached tightly, but not too much, to have contact with the wires inside
the stick).
2.
Insert the spike into the ground paying attention not to damage the unit. The
spike should be firmly planted while leaving the base of the head minimum
1-2” above the ground. We suggest use a crowbar to first make a small hole
and gently push the spike in or dig a small hole and backfill with earth after
the unit is in place. Do not use a mallet, hammer or excessive force as this may
damage the unit. As long as you can get the unit 2/3 rds of the way into the
ground with firm ground contact, is good.
3.
You can tell the unit is operating, as its led light will flash as it transmits its
signal, you will feel the vibrations.
4.
Sometimes the unit may need a short time in the sun to give them a boost and
start up, when first installed. If the unit stops operating check/change the
battery to see that it is OK – as this is the usual reason for the units to stop
operating.
