Tips
1. Mount the receiver high and above any obstructions; fence 
pickets, column caps, etc.
2. If radio control seems limited try moving the receiver 1-2 feet 
in each direction to reduce radio noise “dead spots”.
NOTE: Once you have completed the installation, you may need to relocate the receiver to   
 get better distance.
Consider the following when mounting the receiver:
• Standard receiver cable length is 10 feet (receivers with a longer cable are available as special 
order items; call the Mighty Mule Sales Department). NEVER splice receiver cable!
• Run the cable through PVC conduit to protect it from damage. 
•  DO NOT run cable through conduit containing AC wire.
•  DO NOT place receiver within 3 feet of AC power.
• DO NOT coil excess cable or store it in the control box.
•  Do not mount upside down.
• The receiver range can vary depending upon weather, topography, and external interference.
