MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
S.C.A.T. is a low-maintenance product
We recommend occasional cleaning of the lens with a damp cloth when
needed for maximum efficiency.
Although S.C.A.T. is inoperable during light freezing (down to
30°). the
internal components will not be harmed if left outside and attached to your
garden hose. However, when temperature decreases below 30° store
indoors.
Trouble Shooting:
Cycles and won’t stop spraying:
1.)
2.)
3.)
4.)
5.)
6.)
Open up the spray pattern by adjusting the sprinkler head.
If the S.C.A.T. is tilted up or back it may sense the water spraying.
Turn the water faucet down to reduce the amount of water coming
from the sprinkler.
Adjust spray distance of the sprinkler head to the maximum setting.
Reposition S.C.A.T. so not to face directly into the sun or a strong
wind.
If condition is persistent, cover the top 1/3 of the lens with electrical
tape.
Detection distance reduced:
1.)
To prevent false alarm, the S.C.A.T. has a logic chip incorporated in
its electronic circuitry and it adapts to its surrounding environment
when conditions are windy and/or humid to prevent the scat machine
from activating when no animal is present. The detection area would
vary depending upon weather mndiis.
It is not recommended that S.C.A.T. or any other hose-end apparatus be left
in operation while user is absent for extended periods of time due to the
possibility of garden hose failure, consequent flooding and high water
consumption.
While in storage longer than a week disconnect battery from unit and store
separately.
