  • Page 3 IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ALL ELECTRIC FENCE ENERGISERS READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLATION. NSTALLERS / USERS SHOULD NOTE: ● RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
  • Page 4 IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ALL ELECTRIC FENCE ENERGIZERS continued ● Any part of an electric animal fence that is installed along a public road or pathway shall be identified at frequent intervals by warning signs securely fastened to the fence posts or firmly clamped to the fence wires.

    3.0m Figure 2 STEP 2: Fix the U-bracket mount. The Solar Fence can be mounted in a manner of different ways. A, B & C show three suggestions: A: Ground Level Mounting: see Figure 3 ● Using the provided spike, hammer it into the ground at the desired location.
  • Page 6 T or Y Post STEP 3: Mount the Solar Fence: Figure 5 The Solar Fence should be lowered onto the U-bracket horizontally so that the hand wheel and lock-washer are on the outside of the plastic and the arm of the bracket is inside the enclosure slots.
  • Page 7 The tilt angle can be set at one angle for the year or can be changed seasonally as the sun’s elevation changes. The chart below shows the best angles for the Solar Fence if setting for the whole year and if changing seasonally.
  • Page 8 ENSURE THE ENERGISER IS OFF BEFORE TOUCHING THE TERMINALS OR YOU MAY RECEIVE A SHOCK. The Solar Fence has the 2 fence terminals on the under- side of the enclosure. They are marked ( ) for ground and ( ) for live. The Ground is the Black knob, Live is the Red knob.
  • Page 9 The higher the output to the fence, the more green LEDs will light up. If only the red LED lights up, the output kV is very low meaning there is a problem with the fence condition (bad leakage) or a problem with the Solar Fence.
  • Page 10 Figure 18 Replacing the battery: The Solar Fence uses a 12V 7.2Ah sealed lead-acid battery fitted internally. This battery will need to be replaced periodically when the battery can no longer take a charge. ONLY REPLACE WITH RECHARGEABLE TYPE. Step 1. Remove the Solar Fence from its mount and place face-down on a flat surface.
  • Page 11: Other Notes

    WINTER STORAGE - IMPORTANT If you intend to not use the Solar Fence, for example: storing during winter, it is important to fully charge the battery before doing so. This is so the battery will not get damaged by being in-active at a low voltage for a long period.
