Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Ensure the mask is the correct size for your horse.
- Gently place the mask over the horse's head, ensuring the eye openings align correctly.
- Adjust the quick-fit secure straps for a snug but comfortable fit. The mask should not be too tight, and there should be no gaps where insects can enter.
- Check that the anti-rub binding sits smoothly against the horse's skin.
Compatibility:
This mask is designed for horses and ponies. While it features a contour-fit, individual head shapes may vary. It is compatible with turnout in fields and stables.
Care:
- Cleaning: Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle using cool water and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Drying: Drip dry naturally. Do not tumble dry or place near direct heat sources, as this can damage the mesh and binding.
- Maintenance: Regularly inspect the mesh, straps, and binding for any signs of wear or damage. Over time, the effectiveness of the UV blocking may decrease; consider replacement after prolonged use or if significant wear is visible.
