Overview
The YardMax® system allows you to safely keep your pet within the boundary you set. Although the technology has come a long way, we have
safely used static correction for decades and helped millions of pets live happier, healthier and more active lives.
An important thing to note, even before we get started, is that you should always remove the receiver collar from your pet while inside or when
the system is not in use. Also, never leave it on your pet for more than 12 consecutive hours, and absolutely never attach a leash to it—use a
separate collar for that. Excessive pressure and continuous use without breaks could hurt your pets skin.
Installation time can vary based on the size of your yard and the layout you choose. Training your pet to understand the system typically takes
a couple of weeks. No worries though, we will go through everything you need to know here, and you can always reference our setup videos
or give us a call if you have a question.
Quick tip: By comparison to using a shovel, renting a small trenching or lawn edging tool from a local hardware store can save you a lot
of time.
How the System Works
The system works by sending a radio signal through a buried wire (boundary wire). Your pet wears a receiver collar that picks up the signal. It
warns your pet with a beep when he or she enters the warning zone. If your pet continues to venture out, the collar will issue a safe but startling
correction, similar to the static you feel if you drag your feet across a carpet and then touch a door handle. Of course, different pets respond
to different levels of correction. We have built in 5 levels of correction plus a tone-only setting to accommodate any pet. The only pets that
we do not recommend the system for are aggressive pets and pets below 6 months of age or under 5 lb. Make sure to work through the
boundary training before leaving your pet unattended.
Note: If you buy extra wire, the system is expandable up to 10 acres.
YardMax® Mode (A) and Traditional Mode (B)
The system has 2 modes: In YardMax® mode (A), the warning zone begins at the boundary wire, so your pet can really maximize yard space.
In Traditional mode (B), the warning zone begins before the boundary wire. In either mode, the size of the warning zone is determined by
adjusting the boundary width dial on the transmitter from 1 to 10.
Traditional mode has the ability to create off-limits areas to surround things like gardens or pools, but YardMax® mode does not unless
combined with a Pawz Away® barrier product. In Traditional mode, the correction is finite and is set by the boundary width dial. So if your pet
bolts through the entire field, he or she will stop being corrected.
On the other hand, in YardMax® mode the correction area is perceived to be infinite. It creates the impression of an endless boundary, so your
pet will be much more inclined to turn and head back. The YardMax® mode is ideal for small yards; it allows your pet to use up to 30% more of
the pet area than with Traditional mode.
In either case, after 15 seconds of continuous correction the system will time out. This is to avoid correcting a pet that may be stuck outside his or
her boundaries.
