Close the ratchet and click the
door in place over it. Pull on the
loose end of the toothed strap
until the sensor is firm on the
tail of the cow.
Ensure the sensor is firm on the
tail by testing the fit. The sensor
should be able to move side to
side, but not downward on the
tail. Adjust the tightness of the
strap as needed until a proper
fit has been achieved.

IMPORTANT! DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN!
If the sensor is placed on the tail too tight you will get false warnings
and you may cause permanent, irreversible damage to the cow!
NOTE: Please ensure that your rubber liner has been adjusted to
the size of your cow's tail. Using the wrong sized rubber can lead to
discomfort for the animal and false warnings from the sensor.
Step 8: Checking fit on the tail
Once the Moocall calving
sensor is placed on the tail,
please ensure the rubber
liner isn't leaving the
toothed strap rubbing on
the tail or that the rubber
itself is bunched up or
overlaps the plastic housing
to create pinch points.
