Operating Guide
Step 1: Have Your Utilities Marked
1. Call your utility company to have your utility lines marked. If you
have neighbors using an in-ground pet containment system, you
will want to ask them where the boundary is located. Trust us, you
really do not want to skip this step.
2. Make a plan for how you will work around any large metal
objects (like sheds) or wires. You can cross utility lines but only at
90° angles (1A).
Note: Large metal objects and wires can amplify and/or modulate
radio signals in unpredictable ways.
Underground cables can carry high voltage. Have all underground cables marked before you dig to bury your wire. In
most areas, this is a free service. Avoid these cables when you dig.
Step 2: Charge the Receiver Collar
Open the rubber cap on the back of the receiver collar (2A). Plug
one end of the charger into the outlet and the other into the receiver
collar. The collar light is red while charging and green when fully
charged. The first charge will take about 2 or 3 hours. Each charge
can last up to 3 months depending on the frequency of use.
Do not charge your receiver collar every night.
Frequent charging can have a negative effect
on the battery. We recommend that the receiver
collar be used until the indicator light blinks red.
Step 3: Install the Surge Protector
and Transmitter
Lightning strikes that occur even several miles away from your
installation can create power surges or spikes which may damage
an unprotected system. The surge protector is included to safeguard
your YardMax® system against surges or spikes that can reach it via
your AC power connection and/or boundary wire.
1. Find a place to install the surge protector and transmitter. There
are a few things to consider when choosing an outlet for your
surge protector and transmitter:
We recommend using an outlet at least 30 ft. from the
breaker box.
Both the surge protector and transmitter should be indoors, in a
dry, ventilated and protected area.
The boundary wire must run from the transmitter and exit the
building, so place the transmitter near a window or a wall that
you can drill through (3A). The wire should not be pinched or
cross any utility lines.
The temperatures in that location should not fall below -10°F/-
23°C or above 104°F/40°C.
Both the surge protector and transmitter should be at least 3 ft.
from large metal objects or appliances (3B). These items may
interfere with the signal consistency.
In case your system sounds an alarm, place it where you will be
able to hear and access it.

2. Once you have chosen an outlet and before plugging anything
in, go to your breaker box and turn the power off to that outlet.
3. Then, back at the outlet, remove the center screw that holds the
outlet cover in place.
4. Plug the surge protector into the lower outlet.
5. Using the large screw provided, secure the surge protector to
the outlet.
6. At the breaker box, turn the power back on to the outlet.
7. Next, you will mount the transmitter somewhere within 5 ft. of the
surge protector. Remove the mounting bracket from the back of
the fence transmitter.
8. Fasten the mounting bracket to the wall using the 2 screws and
anchors provided (3C).
9. Slide the transmitter over the mounting bracket (3D).
10. How to connect all the wires will be explained later in Step 6.
Do not install, connect or remove your system during a lightning storm. If the storm is close enough for you to hear
thunder, it is close enough to create hazardous surges.
Risk of electric shock. Use the fence transmitter and surge protector indoors in dry location only.
Turn off power to the outlet before you install or remove your surge protector.
Risk of electric shock or fire. Use surge protector only with a duplex outlet with center screw.
Do not install the surge protector if there is not at least 30 ft. (10 m) or more of wire between the electrical outlet
and electrical service panel.
If possible, DO NOT use an AC circuit protected with a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter). Both the surge
protector and the fence system will function. However, in rare cases, nearby lightning may cause the GFCI to trip.
Without power, your pet may escape. You will have to reset the GFCI to restore power to the system.
Plug the surge protector into a grounded (3-prong) outlet within 5 ft. of the fence transmitter. ALWAYS use a
grounded (3-prong) outlet to ensure protection.
Do not remove the ground prong from the surge protector plug. Do not use a 3-prong plug to 2-prong outlet
converter. Doing so will make the surge protector ineffective against surges or spikes.
For added protection, when unused for long periods of time or prior to thunderstorms, unplug from the wall outlet
and disconnect the loop boundary wires. This will prevent damage to the transmitter due to surges.
