The gaiters have three different settings. You turn on the spats by long pressing the "ON" button. With each further press you switch up a level.
Level 1: For getting the horse's leg used to the vibration. Use this setting once a day for the first week. The vibration panel switches off automatically after 10 minutes.
Level 2: For everyday use. Switches off automatically after 20 minutes.
Level 3: For very stocky horses or for the hind legs. Turns off automatically after 20 minutes.
Please note!
Start with level 1 for the first few days to allow your horse's leg to get used to the gaiter and to ensure that the leg does not swell during use. If the leg swells after use, your horse could have a fracture or an infection. The gaiter should NOT be used IF BREAKD OR INFECTED. Do not use the gaiter if your horse has screws or plates in its legs. Always use the gaiters with the cold packs in case of swelling or bruises. If you are unsure, consult your veterinarian before use and clarify the use with him.
