1. Make sure that the wall is good enough for
stable installation of the DeLaval swinging
cow brush SCB3.
2. Measure and calculate the average height
of withers within the herd. The mounting
height of SCB depends on the average size
of cows (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.

sponding mounting heights for SCB

3. Determine the position of the bracket. For
correct measurements, use the separate
mounting stencil provided with the wall
mounting bracket.
4. Mark positions of four fixation holes on the
wall using the separate mounting stencil as
reference.
5. Drill four Ø12 mm holes.
6. Mount the brush using threaded (M12)
bolts. They should be cut at the length of
the wall thickness + 70 mm.
Put the bolts in the drilled holes, mount the
brush and fix it with washers and nuts.
Note! To support the assembly, it is rec-
ommended to add a plate reinforcement
connecting two screw joints at the other
side of the wall.
7. Remove the swing protection plates (see
Fig. 8).
8. Check the fixation after one week.
