Prepare for sampling
Note
Connect the sampling device to the automatic milking system before the
system clean so that the milk-carrying parts of the installation can be cleaned
again before sampling.
Note
Milking boxes that are assigned to a common group of animals should carry
out sampling together.
It is important that the sampling processes begin at the same time.
