Easyboot and Easyboot Epic range of adjustment

There are a variety of cable adjustments can be made to secure an Easyboot or Easyboot Epic on your horses hoof. The ideal adjustment is one that will require more strength to push the buckle down than most people can do with their hands, using your heel to step on the buckle is an easy way to close the boot. If the buckle goes down too easily, then chances are it won't stay fastened because it is too loose.

Have a look at the pictures below for a guide to the different positions you can use to secure the boots:

This is the standard way to fit the cables, up through the central groove in the buckle system- a good starting point.




This is the loosest setting possible, and works for horses in the upper ranges of the measurements or those with an upright hoof.




This is an intermediate setting between the two




This is a tighter setting, putting the cable through the centre with one part and the other part going around the side. As the cable is on a pulley system, this will not cause an unevenness to the fastening.




This is the tightest setting, ideal for a shallow hoof angle or hoof on the smaller end of the measurements.



Another handy tip... Rather than using a screw driver or Hoof Pick to open the buckle, use the nylon pull strap that comes with the boot. Just slide it under the buckle so that you can pull it up with both hands. This will give you the leverage you need to pull the buckle up without needing any tools!
