UL-275 Receiver

The UL-275 Receiver contains electronics to detect the magnetic field carried by the containment boundary wire, translates them, and delivers an electrical stimulation. The electrical correction is delivered through two contact probes that touch the dog’s neck.

There are two sets of contact probes, long and medium, that can be used on your receiver to provide the correction. The long contact probes are used on dogs with very long hair.

The UL-275 Receiver is enclosed in a waterproof case and is mounted to a polypropylene collar. The collar will fit a dog with a neck size varying from 9 to 22 inches.

Once the correction level has been set, place the test light on the receiver. Walk towards the boundary wire until the test light begins to flash. This will indicate the system is functioning properly.

If the test light did not flash, check the battery installation, and be sure that the probes are secured hand tight. Once the system has been verified to function properly, remove the test light from the receiver.

Placing the Receiver on Your Dog

When placing the receiver on your dog’s neck, make sure it is positioned where the two contact

probes are touching your dog’s skin. However, they are not to be so tight that they are uncomfortable to your pet. If your dog’s hair is so thick that it keeps the contact probes from touching your dog’s skin, you might want to use the longer probes that are supplied with your system. If trimming the hair does not work, try increasing the correction level.NOTE: The collar is properly positioned when you are able to get one finger between the contact probes and your pet’s skin.

CAUTION: Leaving the collar on too tight and for long periods of time can cause, Pressure Necrosis. This is a condition where the skin deteriorates over time. To prevent this, check and clean your pet’s neck regularly. If a rash or sore forms, remove the receiver for a few days. When replacing the collar, make sure both the contact probes and your dog’s neck are clean.

CAUTION: The danger of explosion exists if the battery is replaced incor-rectly. Use only the same or equivalent battery as described in this manual. Take dead batteries to a household hazardous waste collection program in your area or give to a licensed hazardous waste contractor.
