1. Do NOT leave young animals unsupervised for extended periods of time.
2. Be sure to remove the collars and tags from your pet before placing it in the
exercise pen to prevent possible entanglement.
Parts Identification
1 - Exercise Pen
(8 connected panels)
Assembly Instructions
Remove contents of the packing carton. Locate the Exercise Pen (8 connected panels), the Ground
1
Anchors & Snaps.
The Exercise Pen can be set up in many different
2
configurations. Decide what configuration you'd like to use
and set up the pen. (Note: The pen can be moved and
reconfigured after it has been assembled.)
Connect the two ends with the Snaps as shown
3
in Illustration 2. For best results, place Snaps at
top and bottom between the two closely spaced
wires, and space the remaining two Snaps evenly
along the middle wires.
For added safety, install a Ground
4
Anchor at the intersection of each
panel. See Illustration 3. (Note:
Illustration is not shown to scale, and
Snaps and other details have been
eliminated to more clearly illustrate the
Ground Anchor.)
The Corner Stabilizers can be used as floor protectors (in
5
any configuration) and/or to keep the assembled
Exercise Pen in the octagonal configuration. If the
animal jumps up on the side, the Stabilizers will help
prevent the opposite end from collapsing behind, injuring
the animal or possibly allowing the pen to tip over.
To attach the Stabilizer, straighten (as much as
possible) two panels. Working from the outside of the
pen, position the Stabilizer at the intersection of the
two panels so that the notch is facing down (see
Illustration 4). Move the Stabilizer over the top wires
so the slit covers the wires. At the same time, slowly roll the Stabilizer around the wire away from
you. For maximum stability, place all 8 Stabilizer on the top of the pen. For a mix of stability and
floor protection, place every other Stabilizer on bottom of pen. For floor protection only, place all 8
Stabilizers on the bottom.
