Install the Boundary Wire
NOTICE
Before you begin installing the Boundary Wire, unplug the Fence
Transmitter power adapter from the Surge Protector or outlet.

To Bury the Boundary Wire

Burying the Boundary Wire is recommended to protect it and prevent disabling
the system.
Cut a trench 1. 1-3 inches deep along your planned boundary.
Place the Boundary Wire into the trench maintaining some slack to allow it to 2. expand and contract with temperature variations.
Use a blunt tool such as a wooden paint stick to push the Boundary Wire into 3. the trench. Be careful not to damage the Boundary Wire insulation.

To Attach the Boundary Wire to an

Existing Fence

The Boundary Wire of the PetSafe® Deluxe Little Dog In-Ground Fence™ can
be attached to a chain link fence, split rail fence, or a wooden privacy fence.
The Boundary Wire can be attached as high as needed. However, make sure the
Boundary Width is set at a high enough range for the pet to receive the signal. If
using a Double Loop with an existing fence at least fi ve feet tall, run the Boundary
Wire on top of the fence and return it on the bottom of the fence to get the fi ve
foot separation needed.
