While the materials are durable, it is generally recommended to use a breakaway-style collar for field turnout to ensure the horse's safety if it gets caught on an object.
Adjust the straps so that you can comfortably fit two fingers between the noseband and the horse's nasal bone.
The fittings are designed to be resistant to corrosion, but they should be dried after exposure to salt or heavy moisture to maintain their finish.
The padding is integrated into the design for structural stability and is not intended to be detached from the webbing.
The HKM Blue series is color-coordinated, but shade variations can occur between different production batches.
Adjust the crown piece buckles to tighten the head strap until it sits securely against the poll.
Remove dried mud or debris from the spring mechanism and apply a light silicone-based lubricant if necessary.
Hand wash the head collar in warm soapy water and allow it to fully air dry in a well-ventilated area.
To set up the head collar, first ensure all buckles are undone. Place the crown piece over the horse's poll and bring the noseband around the muzzle. Adjust the noseband and the head strap to ensure there is enough room for the horse to chew comfortably without the collar being too loose. The hardware should sit flat against the horse's head without digging in. For care, wipe down the webbing with a damp cloth after use in muddy conditions. If the padded lining becomes saturated with sweat or grime, hand wash it using mild detergent and air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material stiffening.
