perform the same action at the same time when pressing function button. This can be used for
two collars on the neck of one dog, or for the training of higher number of dogs, where we give
the same commands to all of them at the same time.
Choice of the contact points
The stimulation is transferred on your dog's skin through the steel contact points of the receiver.
Each set contains 2 types of contact points. Sufficient length of the contact points has to have a
contact with the dog's skin, enabling the device to operate correctly. If you have a short-haired
dog use the 12 mm contact points, if you have a long-haired dog replace them with the longer
17 mm contact points supplied in the kit. Screw the contact points onto the screws of the receiver
– see the picture: Receiver in the chapter Product description. Tighten them manually and
carefully (do not use a key – this could damage the product).
TIP: If your dog has very long hair, you can order 21 mm long contact points. When your dog
has a dry skin in the area where the contact points are, it is good to lubri cate the dog's skin
with a vaseline, hand cream, or baby oil – which enables a correct transfer of stimulation
impulses.
Fitting the collar
The strap with the receiver (receiver collar) must be tightened enough so that the contact points
are in contact with the skin of the dog. We recommend you to fit the collar on the standing dog.
When you can fit two fingers between the collar and your dog's neck, the collar with the receiver
are tightened enough. If a dog has long or thick hair, it is suitable to trim the hair in the area of
the contact points or to switch to the longer contact points to ensure a consistent contact.
WARNING: If the collar is too loose, the receiver is likely to move and the repeating friction
can irritate the skin of your dog. Furthermore, in this case is not ensured a reliable contact of
contact points with the skin and a proper function of the training collar. We do not recommend
to leave the collar positioned at the same place for more than several hours, because it could
irritate the skin. If it is necessary to wear the collar for long periods, change regularly the
position on the neck of your dog. A collar with a receiver that is overly tight, can cause
pressure sores on the skin in the contact area of the contact points. If this happens, do not use
the training collar until all traces of irritation are gone.
