Maintenance Schedule
To keep your Cow Body Brush performing at its peak, a routine maintenance schedule is essential. Think of it like changing a toothbrush; worn bristles lose effectiveness .
| Maintenance Type | Frequency | Key Tasks |
|---|---|---|
| Daily Visual Check | Every Day | Inspect for trapped hair or debris; listen for unusual motor noises; ensure smooth rotation . |
| Monthly Cleaning | Monthly | Turn off power. Clean the machine body, motor housing, and bristles using compressed air and a brush. Do not use pressure washers near electrical components . |
| Lubrication | Every 6 Months | Grease the moving joints and bearings at the pivot points to ensure smooth swinging motion . |
| Brush Roll Replacement | Annually | Replace the brush cylinder (roller) to maintain grooming performance. Bristles fade and wear over time, reducing cleaning efficacy . |
| Hardware Inspection | Quarterly | Check all mounting bolts and U-brackets for tightness. The fixation should be checked one week after installation and regularly thereafter |
FAQ
How does the brush activate?
It operates via an automatic start/stop mechanism. When the cow pushes against the brush, a micro-switch or sensor activates the motor. The brush stops automatically after a set cycle (usually 90-120 seconds) or when the cow steps away
Is it safe for all cattle, including timid cows or calves?
Absolutely. The brush rotates at a cow-friendly speed and is equipped with soft, flexible nylon bristles. If a cow becomes startled or too much resistance is applied, the brush will stop to prevent injury
Can these brushes be installed outdoors?
Yes, but only if specified. Our standard models are not watertight and should be used indoors or under a protected roof to avoid electrical shorts. We offer weatherproof models (IP44) specifically designed for outdoor use in all climates
How often do the bristles need to be replaced?
With regular use on a herd of 50-60 cows, the brush cylinder should be replaced once a year to maintain optimal cleaning performance. However, if you notice bristles are frayed or significantly shortened, replace them sooner
What customization options do you offer?
As a manufacturer, we offer deep customization, including: bristle material (nylon/PP) and density, motor power (100 KW to 300 KW), mounting bracket size, powder-coat colors for the frame, and voltage specifications to match your local grid
What maintenance is required for the motor?
Very little. The motors are sealed for protection, but we recommend cleaning the housing monthly with compressed air. The bearings should be greased every six months, and the electronic board should never be cleaned with water
How many brushes do I need for my herd?
We recommend a ratio of one brush for every 50 to 60 cows. This prevents competition and stress, ensuring every cow has adequate access to grooming
What should I do if the brush stops swinging or rotating?
First, check the main power supply. If power is on, inspect the bristle roller for tangled debris that might be jamming the mechanism. If the motor hums but doesn’t turn on, the internal fuse or capacitor may need to be replaced. Refer to the fault tree in the manual.
