The range of larger exercisers has been designed with the professional in mind.
Professional models are available in two types and two standard sizes. The 54’0” diameter model allows room for horses to work in trot with a suitable surface, and the 66’0” diameter models gives extra room to allow for a steady canter, again a suitable surface must be laid.
The Electronically controlled hydraulic unit is available as standard on our professional models and as an extra on all other models, it gives the following advantages over the manual model
Sprung loaded double pushers are available as an extra on most models.
These offer the option of a solid divide between each compartment on the Exerciser and are useful where stallions and colts are required to be exercised together . The pusher is designed to absorb kicks, but does not allow horses to see or sniff each other through the pushers. The pusher can be electrified through the metal strips , to help encourage the horses to keep moving forward, this is done with a low voltage system (similar to an electric fence) which is control from the control box. .
The choice of surface for the track way of the Horse Exercisers will depend on how you are going to use the Exerciser, the amount of use it gets and the amount of time you have available for maintaining the track surface.
Monarch recommend the use of rubber floor pavers where the horses will be walking on the Exerciser. They provide an attractive hardwearing ,level surface, which is slip resistant and low maintenance. The rubber paver floor is easily cleaned by brushing and hosing , where loose surfaces will mix with the droppings making keeping them clean much harder.
The paver floor are easily replaced when required with individual pavers lifted and replaced only in the worn areas, leaving the remaining floor intact, thus saving time and money on replacement of the surface.
If you decide to have a paver floor we recommend Power Floating the concrete base to ensure a smooth surface , to ensure the best finish on your paver floor,
Please note : Rubber paver floors are not recommended where horses will be working at speed.
Monarch offers the unique option of a specially designed roof for their Horse Exercisers. This option can be added at any time, as long as our base plans have been adhered to, with no extra cost for any further ground work.
The special design allows the horses to be protected from the elements, with the track way generously covered with a bronze tinted polycarbonate roof. This allows natural light to enter while still affording some protection from strong sunlight. The open nature of the centre means fresh air can circulate easily giving the horses a healthy environment to work in. Guttering is provided over the gateway .
Customers can also provide their own roofs (See background photo)
