joules output, and also comes equipped  
 
-with a 110 volt AC to 12 volt DC adaptor 
-hand held remote fault finder that can test 
the fence

from anywhere on the fence.  
 
 

 

 
 
 
 

 Danger - 

Turbo Rope is an 

excellent conductor of electricity. Do not 
allow the rope to come in conduct with 
other power sources such as power 
lines. 
 
Use a spotter for the rope when spooling 
out or spooling in rope if the operator 
does not have a clear view of the rope. 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

The fault 
finder can 
also be 
used to 
turn the 
energizer 

on or off from anywhere on the fence. Place 
the rope in the slot (as shown on the 
picture) and then push the on or off button. 
The fault finder can be used to determine 
the amount of energy in the rope. Place the 
end post of the reader on the rope and the 
amount of voltage will be displayed on the 
screen 
 
 

Notice- Do not park Power Grazer Trailer 
where it will be exposed to livestock 
without having the Turbo Equibraid rope 
energized.   Damage to a non-electrified 
rope and harm to livestock may result 
when livestock are allowed to chew or 
rub on the rope.
