IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Warning: Read all instruc ons.
• WARNING - The appliance is not intended for use by young children or
infi rm persons without supervision.
• WARNING - Do not connect to mains-operated equipment.
• 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 limi ng device having
a resistance of not less than 500 ohms be connected between the energizer and the electric fence in this
area.
• Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Refer servicing and replacement ba eries to a Gallagher Authorised Service Centre.
• Regularly inspect the supply cord, cables, wires and energizer for any damage. If found damaged in any
way, immediately cease use of the energizer and return it to a Gallagher Authoirised Service Centre for
repair in order to avoid a hazard.
• Check your local council for specifi c regula ons.
• Fence wiring should be installed well away from any telephone or telegraph line or radio aerial.
• Electric animal fences shall be installed and operated so that they cause no electrical hazard to persons,
animals or their surroundings.
• Do NOT become entangled in the fence. Avoid electric fence construc ons that are likely to lead to the
entanglement of animals or persons.
• WARNING - INSTALLERS/USERS SHOULD NOTE: Avoid contac ng the fence 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.
• Well maintained electric fences kept clear of vegeta on with high quality insula on are extremely unlikely
to cause fi res. In mes of extreme fi re risk, disconnect energizer.
• 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 eff ected by means of electrically non-conduc ve material or an isolated metal barrier.
• Barbed wire or razor wire shall not be electrifi ed by an energizer.
• A non-electrifi ed fence incorpora ng barbed wire or razor wire may be used to support one or more
off -set electrifi ed wires of an electric animal fence. The suppor ng devices for the electrifi ed wires shall
be constructed so as to ensure that these wires are posi oned at a minimum distance of 150 mm from
the ver cal plane of the non-electrifi ed wires. The barbed wire and razor wire shall be earthed at regular
intervals.
• Follow the energizer manufacturer's recommenda ons regarding earthing.
• Do not install an earth (ground) system for your electric fence within 10 m (33 ) of any power,
telecommunica ons or other system.
• Use high voltage lead-out cable in buildings to eff ec vely insulate from the earthed structural parts of the
building and where soil could corrode exposed galvanized wire. Do not use household electrical cable.
