Udder hair remover, bent lance

Description

A gas lance for singeing the hair off udders. Hairless udders are quicker to clean before milking.

The lance is 100 cm long and bent near the tip, so you can stand behind the cow and reach between her hind legs without bending. A pilot light stays lit, and you press the lever on the handle to bring up the working flame. It comes with a 3 m hose and a pressure reducer that screws onto the gas bottle. It runs on a butane/propane mix, which isn't included.

Set the reducer to 0.5 to 1.5 bar, so the flame is no more than 20 to 25 cm high. The udder must be dry and clean, and the cow held still, for example in a feed barrier. Hold the lance 10 to 20 cm from the udder and move the flame round it in a figure of eight for about 4 seconds. Keep the flame moving all the time. Afterwards, put a moisturising care product on the udder.

Never smoke while using it, and use it only in a well-ventilated place away from anything that can burn. Check the hose, seals and joints for leaks with a leak detector before each use, and don't use it if it leaks or is damaged. If you smell gas, close the bottle valve and take the unit outside. Never put it down or leave it while it's lit. Parts of the lance get very hot; keep it away from children.
