P a g e 9 4 Installing the tag It is important to correctly attach the tags to the cow's neck in a secure manner in order to avoid them from turning or falling off. To securely attach the tag to the cow’s neck: 1. Ensure that your tag assembly kit includes the following parts: i. H-Tag ii. Belt, Weight & Buckle 2. Open the outside locker of buckle using the buckle opener (supplied with each system) or a large flat screwdriver. 3. Mount the belt on the cow's neck in a way that the tag is positioned on the upper left side of the cow’s neck. (when looking from behind). 4. Closely fasten the belt around the cow’s neck with a maximum of 1-2 fingers gap between the belt & the neck. 5. Tighten the buckle's lever to lock the belt. Make sure that the buckle is completely closed and secured (pushed in all the way) A properly mounted tag should look like this picture:
