How to Use
- Check the head and tube for cracks, bends, corrosion or wear before use.
- Fit the Moorepark head to your HK calving aid in place of the existing head, following the manufacturer's assembly for your model.
- Confirm the head is seated securely before the aid is needed, not during a calving.
- Position the head against the cow so the non-slip surface rests evenly and stably.
- Use the calving aid only with trained, experienced help and in line with accepted assisted calving technique.
- Wash, dry and store the head after each use, and inspect it again before the next calving.
FAQ
Is this a complete calving aid?
No. This is the Moorepark 'non-slip' head only, sold as a replacement or spare part for the HK calving aid.
What is the head made from?
It is made with a galvanised tube, which suits the damp conditions found in calving sheds and cattle housing.
Will it fit my calving aid?
It is designed for the HK calving aid. If you use a different make of jack, check the fitting against your existing head before ordering.
Why is it called a non-slip head?
The Moorepark design is shaped to sit against the cow and resist moving out of position while the aid is being operated.
How should I look after it?
Wash off muck after every calving, allow it to dry fully, store it under cover and inspect for wear or damage before each use.
Who should operate a calving aid?
Only trained, experienced stockpeople. Contact your veterinary surgeon whenever a calving is not progressing normally.
