- Fill the horse feeder, set the dispenser on 1–15, (at 10 it provides 1-1,5 litres depending on the type of feed)
- The timer provides power in 15 min 1-48 times a day (normally 10-14 times) Eksample: turns on at 06.00 and turns off at 06.15 = 1 feeding.
- When the power is on, the dispenser provides the first feeding after approx. 75 seconds.
- It takes half a minute before next feeding (the horse is fed every half minute).
- On the timer you set the hours of feeding as you wish.
- In the dispenser you can set the amount of feed at 1 - 15 portions.
- Minimum amount of feed is one helping or approx. 0,1 – 0,15 litre and the max amount is 15 helpings or approx. 1,5 – 2,0 litres. The feed does not need to be measured out; the dispenser does that.
- There is no waste and the horse makes the best use of the feed and there is no bustle in the stable before feeding.
- Less bedding and less stress (horses grass approx. 20 hours a day).
- The horse feeder can be switched off when the horse is not in its box. The switch is on the inside of the engine compartment (off when the switch i opp and on when the switch is down). You can adjust helpings during feeding (the little red, blue, grey or white botton = 0 – 15 helpings), but the impact will only appear at next feeding.
- You can always ad new feed on top of the feed that is already in the dispenser from a previous feeding (first in is first out).
- The horse needs to eat often, little at time but enough. The horse's saliva destroys the gastric acid = hydrochloric acid. The more often the horse eats the more saliva it will produce.
The dispenser needs to be kept clean in order for the components to work properly.
