To assure a proper fit, please follow these steps:
1. Make sure that the battery is not installed in the Receiver Collar.
2. Start with your pet standing comfortably
(9A)
.
3. Place the Receiver Collar on your pet so that the PetSafe
®
logo is facing your pet’s chin.
Centre the Contact Points underneath your pet’s neck, touching the skin.
You may need to trim the hair in the area of the Contact Probes. Never shave the dog’s neck; this may lead
to a rash or infection.
4. Check the tightness of the Receiver Collar by inserting one finger between the end of a
Contact Point and your pet’s neck. The fit should be snug but not constricting
(9B)
.
You should not make the collar any more tight than is required for good contact. A collar that is too tight will
increase the risk of pressure necrosis in the contact area.
5. Allow your pet to wear the collar for several minutes then recheck the fit. Check the fit
again as your pet becomes more comfortable with the Receiver Collar.
6. Once you are satisfied with the fit of the Receiver Collar then you may trim any excess
collar strap as follows
(9C)
:
a. Mark the desired length of the Receiver Collar with a pen. Allow for growth if your
pet is young or grows a thick winter coat.
b. Remove the Receiver Collar from your pet and cut off the excess.
c. Before placing the Receiver Collar back onto your pet, seal the edge of the cut collar by applying a flame along the
frayed edge.
To Re-Thread the Collar
The slide buckle prevents the collar from becoming loose around your pet’s neck.
The ridges must be facing up; the collar will slip if it is not properly threaded.
