FAQs
Is the handle safe to use in cold weather?
Yes, the ergonomic anti-slip grip is designed to remain easy to hold even when wearing riding gloves.
Can I use this tool on a horse's sensitive frog?

The metal components are designed for durability, but you should always store the tool in a dry place to prevent oxidation.
Is this one-size-fits-all?
Yes, the tool is designed to be universal and effective for all horse breeds and hoof sizes.
How often should I clean the brush?
For optimal hygiene, it is recommended to clear out large debris after every grooming session.
Troubleshooting
Metal pick feels loose or wobbly
Check the connection point at the handle for debris and ensure the hardware is firmly set; if it remains loose, contact the manufacturer regarding warranty.
Bristles are matted and not cleaning effectively
Soak the brush end in a mild soapy solution for ten minutes, rinse thoroughly, and comb the bristles out to restore their shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This product is ready for immediate use upon arrival and does not require any assembly. To maintain the longevity of your scraper, shake out the bristles after every use to prevent hair and dirt buildup. If the bristles become clogged with stubborn mud, rinse them under warm water and allow the tool to air dry completely. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents on the handle, as these may degrade the anti-slip material over time. Store the scraper in a dry environment to prevent corrosion of the metal pick.
