Install the Boundary Wire

To Bury the Boundary Wire

Burying the Boundary Wire is recommended to protect it and prevent disabling the system.

1. Cut a trench

1-3 inches

deep along your planned boundary.

2. Place the Boundary Wire into the trench maintaining some slack to allow it to expand and contract with temperature variations.

3. Use a blunt tool such as a wooden paint stick to push the Boundary Wire into the trench. Be careful not to damage the Boundary Wire.

To Attach the Boundary Wire to an Existing Fence

The Boundary Wire of the PetSafe ® In-Ground Radio Fence ™ can be attached to a chain link fence, split rail fence, or a wooden privacy fence. The Boundary Wire can be attached as high as needed. However, make sure the

Boundary Width is set at a high enough range for the pet to receive the signal. If using a Double Loop with an existing fence at least three feet tall, run the Boundary Wire on top of the fence and return it on the bottom of the fence to get the three to fi ve foot separation needed.

• Chain Link Fence (7A):

Weave Boundary Wire through the links or use plastic quick ties.

• Wooden Split Rail or Privacy Fence (7A):

Use staples to attach Boundary Wire. Avoid puncturing the insulation of the Boundary Wire.

• Double Loop with an Existing Fence:

Run the Boundary Wire on top of the fence and return it on the bottom of the fence to get the three to fi ve foot separation needed.

•

Gate (Single Loop) (7B):

Bury the Boundary Wire in the ground across the gate opening.

Note: The signal is still active across the gate. Your pet cannot pass through an open gate.

•

Gate (Double Loop) (7B):

Bury both Boundary Wires across the gate opening while keeping them

three to fi ve feet

apart.
