Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the rug, place it gently over the horse's back, ensuring the wither fleece is correctly positioned. Secure the dual adjustable buckle front closure first, followed by the low cross surcingles, and finally the removable leg straps. For maintenance, it is recommended to hose off mud regularly and air-dry in a shaded area. When machine washing, use a non-detergent rug wash to preserve the waterproof membrane and avoid high-heat drying, which can damage the synthetic materials. Always ensure the rug is completely dry before storing it away during the off-season to prevent mold growth.
