Gallagher 3E1164 Power Fence Systems User Manual

INTRODUCTION

The earlier generations of Gallaghers were farmers. And it was a typical farmer's approach
to solving farm problems that helped us lead the world into the electric fencing age. From
the 1930's we developed, on our own family farm, animal control systems to make farm
work easier. Today we are known in over 100 countries.
Gallagher Power Fence Systems are recognised for decreasing costs and increasing
TM
profits for farmers throughout the world. Our economical and practical fencing provides
increased efficiency in controlled grazing through subdivision. Increased stocking rates
and fodder conservation are the prime contributors to better farm profits and farmers
have reaped the benefits of upgrading non electric fences, fencing out wild animals and
protecting both stock and pasture.
This manual is designed to help you achieve the best possible results from your Gallagher
Power Fence System. It will help you design your fence system and give suggestions for
TM
the fence materials, hardware, accessories, tools and testers you will need. For maximum
power with minimum maintenance it is important to follow the principles of fence
construction and energizer earthing closely. If you're not prepared to do it properly, be
prepared to accept less than optimum performance.
Thank you for choosing Gallagher - I'm sure you'll be satisfied with your decision for years
to come.
