Hydraulic Head Restraint.
A quick efficient way to control head for vaccinating, mouthing, drenching, tagging... and is designed to
provide access to the neck area. The head restraint adjusts for various sizes of livestock. A shear pin allows
the head restraint bar to break away, preventing injury to the animal or damage to the equipment should
operator error occur during the use of the restraint. Keeps the animal calm by removing the opportunity to work
itself into a frenzy jerking it's head around.
A preset pressure relief valve directs large volumes of oil at low pressure, assuring headgate quickness yet
light pressure on the animal. SILENCER offers equal pressure head doors and employs the least pressure on the
animal of any hydraulic chute.
To use the hydraulic head restraints remove the standard neck extender bars located
opposite the head restraint. The hydraulic restraint in vertical position works as a neck extender with neck
access when extra control of head isn't required. The hydraulic head restraint can easily be removed if not
needed.
