Introduction
Thank you for choosing to purchase this quality product. To minimise the risk of injury, we ask you to
always take some basic safety precautions when using this product. Please read this operating manual
carefully and make sure that you understand it.
Keep these operation instructions in a safe place.
Description of the product
The fence tensioner allows a simple tensioning of a fence wire. By tensioning the wire to the desired
length while leaving the end of the wire free, the user can create the tension required when installing a
new fence or linking two fence wires. The clamping jaws of the two ends of the wire strainer hold the
wire in position while the ratchet lever tensions the wire.
Attention! Wire under tension is dangerous. When using the device, protect your eyes and wear
leather gloves. Should the wire break when being tensioned, it can rebound and cause serious injuries.
Use
Tensioning the fence makes it necessary to clamp the wire fence in the clamping jaws. The clamping
jaws guide the wire in a certain direction when clamping it, but clamp it with the pressure being raised
when the wire is stretched in the opposite direction. Familiarise with the tensioning method before using
the wire tensioner.
Clamping the fence wire in the clamping jaws
1. Open the jaws with the help of the lever of the clamping jaws and thread the wire as shown
(Fig. 2).

2. Close the clamping jaw to clamp the fence wire (Fig. 2). Make sure that the wire is clamped in
a safe way by trying to pull it out of the fence wire body. Should the wire not be clamped safely
and slip through the clamping jaw, produce more clamping force by applying the lever of the
clamping jaws.
Tensioning the fence wire when attaching to a fence post
1. Tighten the fence wire by hand until it sags no longer.
2. Clamp the wire in the locking hook of the clamping jaws, then attach the fixed hook to the post
(Fig. 3).
Note! If the fixed hook cannot be attached directly to the fence post by reason of the size or shape
of the latter, lay a chain around the post and attach the fixed hook to that chain.

3. Tighten the wire excess by hand until it is tightened so that the tensioner sticks to the post itself.
4. Clamp the fence wire in the mobile hook of the clamping jaw (Fig. 4).

5. Tension the wire with the help of the ratchet lever. The wire excess is kept untensioned and can
be simply fixed to the post. If the mobile hook has reached the end of its travel and the wire
requires additional tensioning, read and obey the section “Repositioning the mobile hook.”
Linking existing fence wires
1. Clamp one of the wire in the fixed hook of the clamping jaw. Clamp the other wire in the mobile
hook of the clamping jaw (Fig. 5).

3. Tension the wire with the help of the ratchet lever. The wire excess is kept untensioned and can
be simply connected. If the mobile hook has reached the end of its travel and the wire requires
additional tensioning, read and obey the section “Repositioning the mobile hook.”
If the mobile hook has reached the end of its travel and the wire requires additional tensioning, the
mobile hook must be repositioned besides the locking hook. The locking hook of the clamping jaw keeps
the wire tensioned; that is why the mobile hook can be opened and repositioned.
Repositioning the mobile hook
1. Make sure that the wire is clamped safely in the locking hook.
2. Unclamp the wire from the mobile hook of the clamping jaw. Then slide the mobile hook back
towards the locking hook (Fig. 7).
