Measure your horse from the last hole of the billet on one side to the last hole of the billet on the other side while the saddle is girthed.
This is a short girth primarily designed for dressage saddles with long billets; it is not recommended for jumping saddles that require a longer girth shape.
While durable, it is not waterproof. If the girth becomes soaked, air-dry it naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from warping.
The central ring is specifically designed for the secure attachment of training aids such as side reins or training lunging attachments.
Waldhausen products generally carry a warranty against manufacturing defects; contact your original retailer for specific warranty claim processes.
Depending on usage and climate, conditioning every 2-4 weeks is recommended to keep the leather in peak condition.
Apply a leather conditioner and work it into the material to restore suppleness.
Check for debris in the roller mechanism; clean with a soft brush and apply a tiny amount of non-staining lubricant if necessary.
Check if the elastic has reached the end of its functional life; if it does not snap back, consider professional inspection or replacement of the girth.
To set up, ensure the girth is centered on the horse's sternum to take full advantage of the anatomical shape. The elastic ends should face upward toward the saddle billets; always tighten the girth gradually from both sides to ensure balanced pressure. This girth is compatible with most dressage saddles that utilize long billets. To care for your Waldhausen leather product, wipe away sweat and dirt after every ride using a damp cloth. Apply a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Store the girth in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the leather and the elasticity of the inserts.
