You won't believe this bad luck...TRACTOR FAIL!!

What happens here

After ensuring the fence line is clear, it's time to energize the fence. Locate the 'Intelli-Shock 60 Solar Powered Fence Charger'. This charger collects solar energy during the day to power the fence and charges a battery for nighttime operation. Connect the 'hot hook-up' from the charger to the live polybraid fence line. Then, connect the 'cold hook-up' to a ground point, typically by hooking it onto the metal gate chain which is in contact with the ground. Finally, activate the charger by pressing its power button. This will send a pulse of electricity through the polybraid, creating a psychological barrier for the livestock.

Goal: Energize the electric fence for livestock containment.
