PART 3 - STEP BY STEP INSTALLATION
STEP 1: Plan Your System Layout
This is the most important step. Be sure to take the time to plan
carefully. This will avoid time consuming corrections to your installation.
Before beginning installation of your system we recommend you make
an aerial sketch of your yard such as the one shown in Figure 6. Your
sketch should include all buildings, large plants, trees, walks, driveway,
pool and other important details. Then sketch in where you plan to place
the boundary wire. Make sure the wire makes a continuous loop.
SAFETY TIP:
Since you will only be burying the cable 4 inches deep at maximum,
it is unlikely that you will disturb power or phone lines. Still, we

location of all buried wires, mark them on your sketch and avoid
running the boundary cable in these areas.

A common error is trying
to replace a section of
single
loop wire with a
piece of twisted wire to
create a
gate
as shown in
Figure 11. This will
not
work. In order to create
a gate, you must run a
double loop as shown in
Figures 9 and 10 above.
