Cross Hard Surfaces (driveways, sidewalks, etc.)
• Concrete Driveway or Sidewalk (10C): Place the boundary
wire in a convenient expansion joint or create a groove using a
circular saw and masonry blade. Place the boundary wire in the
groove and cover with an appropriate waterproofing compound.
For best results, brush away dirt or other debris before patching.
• Gravel or Dirt Driveway (10D): Place the boundary wire
in a PVC pipe or water hose to protect the boundary wire
before burying.
Step 11: Place the Boundary Flags
The boundary flags are visual reminders for your pet of where the
warning zone is located.
1. Place the test light contacts on the contact points. Hold the
receiver collar at the height of your pet’s neck.
2. Walk towards the warning zone until the receiver collar
beeps (11A).
3. If you are in YardMax® mode (A) place the boundary flag
along the boundary wire approximately 6 inches inside the pet
area
(11B).
4. If you are in Traditional mode (B) place the boundary flag where
you hear the beep
(11C ).
5. Walk back into the pet area until the beeping stops.
6. Repeat this process along the warning zone until it is marked with
boundary flags every 10 ft.

Step 12: Fit the Receiver Collar
Proper fit of the receiver collar is important. A receiver collar worn for too long or made too tight on your pet’s neck
may cause skin damage, ranging from redness to pressure ulcers. This condition is commonly known as bed sores.
• Avoid leaving the receiver collar on your pet for more than 12 hours per day.
• When possible reposition the receiver collar on your pet’s neck every 1 to 2 hours.
• Check the fit to prevent excessive pressure; follow the instructions in this manual.
• Never connect a leash to the receiver collar; it will cause excessive pressure on the contact points.
• When using a separate collar for a leash, do not put pressure on the receiver collar.
• Wash your pet’s neck area and the contact points of the receiver collar weekly with a damp cloth.
• Examine the contact area daily for signs of a rash or a sore.
• If a rash or sore is found, discontinue use of the receiver collar until the skin has healed.
• If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.
• For additional information on bed sores and pressure necrosis, please visit our website.
These steps will help keep your pet secure and comfortable. Millions of pets are comfortable while they wear stainless
steel contact points. Some pets are sensitive to contact pressure. You may find after some time that your pet is very
tolerant of the receiver collar. If so, you may relax some of these precautions. It is important to continue daily checks of
the contact area. If redness or sores are found, discontinue use until the skin has fully healed.
Important: The proper fit and placement of your receiver collar is
important for effective training. The contact points must have direct
contact with your pet’s skin on the underside of his neck.
1. Be sure the receiver collar is off before placing it on your pet.
Then with your pet standing, fit the receiver collar snugly onto
your pet’s neck so that the contact points make contact with your
pet’s skin on the underside of his or her neck. Make sure the
PetSafe® logo is right-side up (12A).
2. Check the tightness of the receiver collar by inserting one finger
between the end of a contact point and your pet’s neck. The fit
should be snug but not constricting.
3. Allow your pet to wear the receiver collar for a few minutes, then
check it again.
You may need to trim the hair in the area of the contact points. Never shave your pet’s neck; this may lead to a rash or infection.
4. Once you are satisfied with the fit of the receiver collar, remove it
from your pet and trim it, but make sure to allow room for growth
or a thicker winter coat. Use a lighter to seal the cut so that it will
not fray (12B).
5. The collar will slip if it is not properly threaded. The slide buckle
prevents the collar from becoming loose around your pet’s neck
and the ridges must be facing up (12C).
6. While the receiver collar is still off your pet, turn it on by holding
the mode button until a green light comes on. The first thing
your receiver collar does is a ReadyTest® startup (Step 7) to
ensure that it is ready for use. You will know it is done when the
indicator flashes the series of red flashes to indicate the current
static correction level. Do not touch the contact points during the
ReadyTest® startup.
