6
Benefits
of
using
the
Sheep
Handler
The
benefits
you
will
receive
from
using
the
Sheep
Handler
include
the
following:
•
Save
time
and
labour
One
person
can
operate
the
Sheep
Handler
using
the
remote
control.
This
means
that
you
will
still
be
in
control
of
its
operation
while
at
a
distance.
Additionally,
as
you
control
the
gates
by
using
the
remote
control
(two
way
only
straight
and
left),
the
physical
demands
of
operating
gates,
particularly
drafting
gates,
is
removed.
•
Improve
work
efficiency
Increase
the
speed
of
a
variety
of
stock
management
tasks
and
also
drafting
throughput
as
the
process
can
be
automated.
This
means
stock
(and
people)
spend
less
time
in
the
yards.
•
Decrease
the
incidence
of
injuries
for
stock
and
operators
The
Sheep
Handler’s
solid
manufacture
and
rubber
lined
walls
reduces
the
chance
of
injury
from
collisions
or
general
usage.
Additionally,
the
unit
holds
sheep
secure
reducing
the
handling
aspect
and
potential
injury
to
persons.
•
Quiet
operation
The
innovative
construction
of
the
Sheep
Handler
and
the
pneumatic
operation
means
that
it
is
exceptionally
quiet
when
working.
This
reduces
the
stress
on
you
and
stock.
Stock
will
flow
better
and
will
enter
the
unit
more
readily
as
a
result.
•
Carry
out
several
stock
management
tasks
at
the
same
time
The
Sheep
Handler
with
a
reader
set
up
(panel
and
reader)
can
automatically
read
EID
tags,
weigh
and
then
draft
without
you
having
to
control
it.
All
of
these
actions
can
be
pre
‐
programmed
into
a
weigh
scale
indicator
which
will
communicate
with
the
Sheep
Handler.
This
gives
you
the
freedom
to
move
away
from
the
weighing
and
drafting
area,
to
organise
stock
at
the
same
time
as
these
actions
are
occurring
‐
all
with
the
ability
to
stop
and
hold
an
animal
at
the
push
of
a
button
on
the
remote.
