3.2 Installing the brush on a post
Note! It is recommended to install the brush on a
steel post with 10 cm (4”) diameter. The bar
should be anchored at the top and at the bottom.
1. Mount the DeLaval swinging cow brush
SCB3 with the original fixation U-brackets
including nuts.
2. Determine the height of the wall mounting
bracket before the fixation.
3. The mounting height of SCB depends on
the average size of cows. Measure and cal-
culate the average height of withers within
the herd (see X in Fig. 9). To match the
mounting height (Y) with corresponding X
size, see
Ä
Table "Average heights of with-
ers and corresponding mounting heights
for SCB" on page 16 .
4. Fix the nuts carefully. Make sure that it is
not possible to turn the DeLaval swinging
cow brush SCB3 around the post.
5. Check the fixation after one week.
4 Installing the switch plate

Note! The switch should not be used to switch
the brush on and off for daily operation.
