IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Warning: Read all instrucƟons
• WARNING - Do not connect to mains-operated equipment.
• Avoid contacng the electric fence wires with the head, mouth, neck or torso. Do not climb over, through
or under a mul-wire electric fence. Use a gate or a specially designed crossing point.
• Do NOT become entangled in the fence. Avoid electric fence construcons that are likely to lead to the
entanglement of animals or persons.
• Electric animal fences shall be installed and operated so that they cause no electrical hazard to persons,
animals or their surroundings.
• It is recommended that, in all areas where there is a likely presence of unsupervised children who will be
unaware of the dangers of electric fencing, that a suitably rated current liming device having a resistance
of not less than 500 ohms be connected between the energizer and the electric fence in this area.
• The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.
• Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Do not place combusble materials near the fence or energizer connecons. In mes of extreme fire risk,
disconnect energizer.
• Refer servicing to a Gallagher Authorised Service Centre.
• Check your local council for specific regulaons.
• An electric animal fence shall not be supplied from two separate energizers or from independent fence
circuits of the same energizer.
• For any two separate electric animal fences, each supplied from a separate energizer independently med,
the distance between the wires of the two electric animal fences shall be at least 2.5m. If this gap is to be
closed, this shall be effected by means of electrically non-conducve material or an isolated metal barrier.
• Barbed wire or razor wire shall not be electrified by an energizer.
• A non-electrified fence incorporang barbed wire or razor wire may be used to support one or more
off-set electrified wires of an electric animal fence. The supporng devices for the electrified wires shall
be constructed so as to ensure that these wires are posioned at a minimum distance of 150 mm from
the vercal plane of the non-electrified wires. The barbed wire and razor wire shall be earthed at regular
intervals.
• Follow the energizer manufacturer’s recommendaons regarding earthing.
• Do not install an earth (ground) system for your electric fence within 10 m (33 ) of any power,
telecommunicaons or other system.
• Except for low output baery operated energizers, the energizer earth stake should penetrate the ground
to a depth of at least 1 m (3 ).
• Use high voltage lead-out cable in buildings to effecvely insulate from the earthed structural parts of the
building and where soil could corrode exposed galvanized wire. Do not use household electrical cable.
• Connecng leads that are run underground shall be run in conduit of insulang material or else insulated
high voltage lead-out cable shall be used. Care must be taken to avoid damage to the connecng leads due
