To assure a proper fit, please follow these steps:
1. Make sure transmitter is not plugged in, and the receiver is turned off.
2. Start with your pet standing comfortably (6A).
3. To make it easier to hear the warning beep, place the receiver collar on your pet with the logo side
of receiver facing your pet’s chin.
4. Center the contact points underneath your pet’s neck, touching the skin.
You may need to trim the hair in the area of the contact points. Never
shave the dog’s neck; this may lead to a rash or infection.
5. 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 (6B).
a. Allow your pet to wear the collar for several minutes then recheck the fit.
b. Check the fit again as your pet becomes more comfortable with the receiver collar.
6. Trim the collar as follows (6C):
a. Mark the desired length of the receiver collar with a pen. Allow for growth if your pet is young or grows a thick winter coat.
b. Remove the receiver collar from your pet and cut off the excess.
c. Before placing the receiver collar back onto your pet, seal the edge of the cut collar by applying a flame along the frayed edge.
