USAGE INSTRUCTIONS

grounded, heavy-duty (10 or 12
gauge) extension cord.

household or light-weight extension
cord. Do not exceed 100 feet of
extension cord. If gates or squeeze
panels are sluggish or motor bogs
down while attempting to operate,

extension cord or power outlet located
too far from the main power supply.

of the way of people and animals.
