4. DO NOT CONNECT ANY OTHER DEVICE, SUCH AS A POULTRY OR CATTLE
TRAINER, TO A FENCE THAT IS ALREADY CONNECTED TO THE FENCE
CONTROL. Should lightening strike the fence, its damaging electrical force will
be conducted to all other devices.
5. AVOID ACCIDENTAL ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Never install an electric fence
below high voltage power plant transmission lines. Never touch or attempt to
climb over a fence that is electrically charged. Never use more than one Fence
Control on the same fence. Install “Danger! Electric Fence! Risk of Electrical
Shock if Touched!” signs in visible areas to identify the electrified wires. Inform
everyone who might possibly come in contact with the electrically charged fence
about its location. Instruct everyone who might possibly come in contact with the
electrically charged fence how to disconnect the Fence Control in case of
emergency.
6. FOR INCREASED PICKUP OF SOLAR ENERGY, select a location with full,
direct sunlight, where the Fence Control can receive at least eight hours of
sunlight each day. Shadowed locations will not allow the Battery (part #10) to
fully charge, and will reduce the hours of effective operation. Make sure to adjust
the Solar Panel (part #2) so that it faces directly at the sun at noontime each day
of the year. (See Figure A, and Assy. Diagram.)
7. ALWAYS KEEP THE SOLAR PANEL (part #2) CLEAN.
(See “Inspection, Maintenance, And Cleaning” section.)
8. DO NOT USE ANY MEANS OF CHARGING THE BATTERY (part #10) OTHER
THAN THE SOLAR PANEL (part #2) OR A CONSTANT-POTENTIAL-
CURRENT-LIMITED BATTERY CHARGER RATED AT 6V DC @ 4.5 AMPS
PER HOUR.
9. DO NOT OVERCHARGE THE BATTERY (part #10) WHEN USING A
CONSTANT-POTENTIAL-CURRENT-LIMITED BATTERY CHARGER. To use a
battery charging system other than the Solar Panel (part #2), the Battery must be
removed from the Fence Control. (See Figure C, and Assy. Diagram.)
10. DO NOT DISPOSE OF BATTERY (part #10) BY FIRE. Fire or intense heat can
cause an explosion. After the life of the Battery has expired, it should be
recycled or disposed of in accordance with procedures for the proper disposal of
waste products.
