PREPARING THE INSTRUMENT
Figure 13. Placing the animal in the roll
Holding the animal by its tail, swing them up from a position lower than the
rod, so that they find themselves walking inside.
It is advisable to set the cylinder in motion before placing the animals on the
rod. Otherwise, by the time the last animal has been seated in position, the
first animal may be facing the wrong direction.
It is also advisable to let the animal familiarize with the rod by having them
walk at minimum speed for a few moments.
