The HTL Static Manual Hooftrimming Crush provides an economical, yet safe, solution for everyday hooftrimming needs. The strong, galvanised steel frame construction ensures cattle are safely restrained for routine, preventative or curative trimming. The adjustable, self-locking head gate enhances its ease of use and makes it suitable for handling cattle of any size. The adjustable height front leg blocks with tie-down system aids the trimming of front feet, whilst the rump chain secures the hind quarters whilst trimming the rear feet. The rump chain also adds to the versatility of this crush, making it suitable for AI or vet inspections. The wide rubber bellyband, which works off a braked winch, folds nicely around the cow and is located to ensure a comfortable, but secure, support position. The back leg is also lifted via a braked winch, adding to the overall safety for the operator.
