The SportDOG®SportTrainer®SD-1275E Remote Trainer has been proven safe, comfortable, and effective for
all dogs over 3.6 kg. Consistent, correct use of this product allows you to reinforce commands and correct
misbehaviour from up to 1200 m. The Remote Transmitter sends a signal, activating the Collar Receiver to deliver
harmless stimulation. With proper training, a dog will learn to associate this signal with a command. Like all
SportDOG®products, this model features adjustable static stimulation levels so you can tailor the stimulation
level to your dog’s temperament, eliminating the risk of over-stimulation.
IMPORTANT:TheSportTrainer®SD-1275E Remote Trainer has a range of 1200 m. Depending on the way you hold
the Remote Transmitter, the maximum range may vary. For consistent results at longer ranges, hold the Remote
Transmitter in a vertical position away from your body and above your head. Terrain, weather, vegetation,
transmissions from other radio devices, and other factors will affect the maximum range.
THE SPORTTRAINER®SD1275E CONTAINS:
• Remote Transmitter
• Collar Receiver
• Charging Cradle
• Wall Charger
• Lanyard

STEP::06
FIT THE COLLAR RECEIVER
Please see page 3 of the SportTrainer®SD-1275E Operating Guide for Important
Safety Information.
Put the Collar Receiver around your dog’s neck and adjust to find the proper fit. Fasten the Collar Receiver so the fit
is snug yet loose enough to allow one finger to fit between the strap and the dog’s neck. Fit is important because a
loose collar may cause inconsistent performance.
CONGRATULATIONS!
At this point, your SportTrainer®SD-1275E Remote Trainer is ready for field use.
