• The receiver collar should be centered on your dog’s neck where the
antenna is on the dog’s right side. This will prevent the antenna from
loosening/falling off if the dog encounters tall grass or brush.
• A plastic clip or cable tie has been provided in your kit to keep the
receiver antenna close to the receiver collar if desired.
• When placing the receiver collar on your dog, it should fit snug against
the dog’s skin, but loose enough so you can place one finger between the
probe and the dog’s skin. If the receiver collar does not make good contact
with the dog’s neck, try the longer probes.
• To adjust the collar for the proper fit, hold the buckle with one hand
while pulling the collar with the other. Slide the excess collar through the
D-ring and the black plastic keeper.
• The Sport Dog Transmitter’s stimulation buttons are color coded and
vary in intensity – yellow is low and red is high stimulation. However,
the stimulation buttons are dependent upon the intensity level that is
set in the receiver.
4. Troubleshooting the Sport Dog Trainer
A. Stimulation Too Low/High
If you are not getting the appropriate response from your dog, the
intensity level may be too low or too high, or the contact posts may not
be making sufficient contact with your dog’s skin.
There are four ranges of intensity levels that can be changed by adjusting
two switches located in the receiver. They vary from low to very high.
Your Sport Dog Trainer is factory set at the low intensity level. When
adjusting the switches, make sure you have a small, sharp object.
Switches S6 and S7 are used to adjust the receiver’s intensity levels.
Refer to Figure 11 for locating the two switches inside the receiver.
