Installation Requirements
Installation Requirements
Do NOT drill or tap into the TigerStop beam!
Drilling holes into the TigerStop beam may damage the drive system. All fastening or
attachment to the fence beam must be made by inserting T-bolts or T-nuts with washers.
Do NOT over tighten mounting hardware!
It is critical, especially if not using the TigerStop Universal Attachment brackets, that the
bolts are prevented from over tightening and driving into the fence beam. Always use washers.
ALWAYS evenly tighten mounting hardware!
Uneven tightening of mounting hardware can introduce a slight twist or other deformation in the beam.
This will result in inaccurate measurement and premature failure of the drive belt or other components.
NEVER open TigerStop Motor Box!
The motor box compartment contains DC voltage with potentially FATAL amperage.
NEVER attempt unauthorized actions inside the motor box!
110 VAC 15 Amps
208 VAC 20 Amps
240 VAC 20 Amps
TigerFence SLR Power Requirements
TigerFence SLR must have a dedicated circuit. No other equipment should be on the same circuit.
WARNING! Do NOT use a high leg delta circuit to power TigerFence SLR.
If you are not sure what kind of circuit you are using, STOP! Have a qualified electrician confirm the main power circuit.
