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 Authorised 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 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 place combus ble materials near the fence or energizer connec ons. 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.
• Connec ng leads that are run underground shall be run in conduit of insula ng material or else insulated high voltage lead-
out cable shall be used. Care must be taken to avoid damage to the connec ng leads due to the eff ects of animal hooves or
tractor wheels sinking into the ground.
• Connec ng leads shall not be installed in the same conduit as the mains supply wiring, communica on cables or data cables.
• Connec ng leads and electric animal fence wires shall not cross above overhead power or communica on lines.
