Install Safe-Fence Tensioners and
Insulators
 |
With the
height, number of strands and strand spacing pre-determined, install the tensioners
first and then the insulators.
Typically the center of the top strand is 4 " from the top of the
post. Attach top strand tensioners and insulators 4" on center from
the top of the post. When using wood post sleeves on corners and gates,
measure 4 " from the bottom edge of the cap.
To install
tensioners drill an 1/8th inch pilot hole in the post to accept the wood
lag. Caution: Tighten the wood lag to the
point of snug and no further. Over tightening the wood lag may crack the
plastic body of the tensioner and allow internal arching into the post. |

Attach
the R-16
insulator on wood posts with #W-16 1½" stainless steel screws.
For Safe-Tee
Sleeves, use #S-16 ½" #8 stainless steel screws. Put the
insulators on the sleeves before putting them over the T-posts. |
