• Avoid damaging the insulation of the loop wire; damage may cause areas of weak signal and lead to failure
of the boundary.
• Use care when mowing or trimming your grass not to cut the loop wire.
• Plug the surge protector into a grounded (3-prong) outlet that is within 5 ft. of the fence transmitter. ALWAYS
use a grounded (3-prong) outlet to ensure maximum protection.
• Do not remove the ground prong from the surge protector plug. Do not use a 3-prong plug to 2-prong outlet
converter. Doing so will make the surge protector ineffective against surges or spikes.
• Verify that the boundary loop and transmitter wires connect to the proper surge protector terminals. Reversed
connections will result in an increased risk of surge related damage.
• For added protection, when unused for long periods of time or prior to thunderstorms, unplug from the wall
outlet and disconnect the loop boundary wires. This will prevent damage to the transmitter due to surges.
