Feeder Design and Daily Use
The concave, grooved base positions the wheels near the bottom of the tank to help collect liquid as the level falls. Check the remaining contents and refill as needed; the design does not guarantee that every drop will be extracted.
The domed lid is intended to discourage cattle from standing on the feeder. Raised wheel brackets help direct rain and snow away from the openings, but regular checks for weather entry, contamination, and damage are still needed.
Use liquid supplements compatible with the tank and labeled for the intended animals. Follow the supplement supplier's feeding and intake-monitoring directions. The feeder provides access to supplement; it does not guarantee intake, prevent deficiencies, or establish health and production outcomes.
Cleaning and Replacement Wheels
Place the feeder on a stable site with access for refilling and inspection. Check caps, wheels, brackets, and the tank body regularly. Follow the manufacturer's and supplement supplier's cleaning and handling instructions.
Compare the two-wheel lick wheel kit when replacing wheels or selecting the optional four-wheel configuration. Confirm compatibility and the included mounting hardware before ordering.
