Safety

Safety Alert Symbols

The SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL indicates there is a potential
hazard to personal safety involved and extra safety precaution must be
taken. When you see this symbol, be alert and carefully read the message
that follows it. In addition to design and conguration of equipment, hazard
control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness,
concern, prudence and proper training of personnel involved in the operation,
transport, maintenance and storage of equipment.

Ow n er/op e rat o r can pr e v ent an d ma y be re s pon s i ble fo r ac ci d ent s or in jur i es
occurring to other people, themselves, and/or property and equipment.

Thoroughly read and understand the installation, operation, references and
other material supplied with the Panel Walker. If the installer or operator
cannot read English, it is the owner’s responsibility to explain this material
to them.

We strongly recommend that children are not allowed to operate
or play on this equipment. Do not allow untrained people to
operate or service equipment.

Installation / Operation Safety

• Read and understand the installation instructions completely before
beginning installation. Work in a clean, dry, level area.

• Make sure any individuals assisting with the installation of this
equipment understand the instructions as well. Priefert recommends
the use of good quality tools of the type noted in this manual.

• Priefert also recommends wearing personal protective clothing while
assembling this Panel Walker including gloves and safety glasses,
as well as, arm, leg, head and foot protection.

• Allow only trained, qualied individuals to operate forklifts, tractors,
loaders or other vehicles used during installations; and that those
individuals are familiar with the operation of the specic vehicle used
during installations.

• Operate equipment only during fair weather conditions.

• Disconnect power before performing any service or repairs to the

equipment. Remove all tools used during installation from equipment
before operation.

• Use care around and while handling support cables. Entanglement in
support cables can cause death or serious injury.

Horse Walker and Equine Safety

Due to the inherent dangers associated with equestrian activities, many
states have adopted statutes pertaining to the liabilities of horse owners,
handlers, and individuals involved in equestrian activities. Some states
also require that you post signs at your facility with the specic “Warning
Law” on them, for personal and/or professional equine activities. Posting
these warning signs may help protect you and/or your organization in the
event an accident or injury does occur. Please check the legal statute
information in your state.

Horses can be easily spooked and this is when injuries may occur. One in
three horse-related injuries happen when the rider/handler is dismounted.
These injuries typically involve the handler being kicked or stepped on by
the horse. Making sure all equine handlers are aware of the dangers posed
by frightened horses and what actions can scare them can help prevent
injuries. Some examples of things that can spook a horse include, sudden
or unexpected movements; loud or sudden noises such as mobile phones
or horns; other animals (i.e. unleashed and/or barking dogs) and biting

insects.

Priefert advises that horses not be saddled or tacked
when in the Walker, and recommends halters be removed
to prevent possible entanglement with moving parts.

Additional information is provided in the Appendix at the
end of this manual.

Safe Operation Guidelines

• Use caution introducing horses to the walker until the horse becomes
familiar with its operation.

• Do not let children play in or on horse walker or its components.

• Do not allow children to operate walker or its components.

• Do not sit, stand or climb on panels during operation

• Do not stick arms or legs through the panels while the walker is

in motion.

• Do not touch hanging panels while power is on; panels are electried.

• Make sure all guests or observers are clear of panels, gates and

moving components prior to walker operation.

• Be sure both inner and outer gates are closed before operating
walker. Never operate walker with gates open.

• Be sure the walker is completely stopped and power is o󰀨 before
opening gates or entering the walker.

• Be cautious to prevent being conned between the panels whenever
horses are in the walker. Be cautious to prevent being caught
between the horse and panels.

• Be sure that horses introduced to the walker are only handled by
those familiar with equine behavior.

• Do not attempt to ride horses while in walker.

• Wearing proper clothing can help prevent injuries.

• Always take into consideration the age, physical condition and

specic characteristics of horses within the Walker to prevent
exceeding their limitations.

BE AWARE OF SIGNAL WORDS: A signal word designates a degree of level of hazard seriousness.

NOTE: Provides helpful information to the operator.

IMPORTANT: Indicates failure to observe may cause damage to

equipment.

WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not

avoided, could result in death or serious injury, and includes hazards that

Concrete Pad Preparation

IMPORTANT: Be sure to select an area that is large enough to accommodate the Horse Walker Outer Ring with

sucient clearance all around. Area should also be level, and if possible, slightly higher than surrounding terrain

to allow drainage, but not excessive runo. Avoid low-level areas which could lead to ponding, puddles and

depositing of sediments. Level grading surface location prior to installation will produce the best results.

Panel Walker

and Lead Walker

Require

240 VAC 30 Amps.

See Page 11
for Electrical
Connections

Approx. 4” of conduit above pad.

NOTE:

Top of pad should

be ush with ground or 1" above.

HORSE WALKER CONCRETE PAD DIMENSIONS

Not to Scale

ADDITIONAL NOTE: If Optional Spray Kit is to be installed, waterline should be buried during this step of the

installation process. Priefert recommends Sch40 PVC buried below the freeze level for your location. Determine

the water supply location for the Spray Kit, and stub up and cap for that installation. (See Page 21)

Walker Base Assembly will sit on an anchor bolt pattern of 18"x 22". The 18" side will be the front

side with the door. Overall diameter of walker to the end of the arms is approx. 42' (21' Outer Radius).
When placing the walker, keep the end of the arms 10' to 12' feet from any obstruction.

IMPORTANT: IF factory provided Anchor Bolt Jig is NOT used in installation, use INDUSTRIAL GRADE 3/4" anchor bolts.

To attach Tree, use a chain or strap
to attach to the lifting eye at the top of
the walker Tree. Pick up the Tree and
slide it over the main shaft.

When the Tree is all the way down,

rotate to make sure it slides down and
locks in place on the main shaft.

To install the arms of the walker, attach the Inner Arms to the Tree
with the ⅞" x 5" bolts provided. Raise the Inner Arm and bolt it to
the Support Strap with the ⅝" x 1½" bolts.

Note: Do not install the nuts for the 7/8" x 5" bolts until all arms have been

installed. This will allow bolts to slide out to allow the next arm bolt
to be installed. Once all arms have been installed, then install and
tightened all nuts.

Hanging Panel & Stabilizer Assembly

1. After all cables are tightened, bolt the panel straps to the mounting ears on the arms. The bolts

are assembled on the brackets of the Panel Straps. Remove the bolts from the end of the
brackets and install in the mounting ears on the arm. The short Panel Strap will go into the inner
mounting ear and the long Panel Strap will go into the outer mounting ear. (See examples pg. 08)
There are more holes in the outer strap then there are in the inner strap.

NOTE: Install the outer strap with the

“WARNING” label facing outward.

2. Install the Hanging Panel onto the Panel Straps you just assembled. With

the help of another person, lift the panel where the bottom of the panel is
16”- 20” o󰀨 the ground. The panel must hang level. (See detail at bottom of
pg. 08). Use four ½” bolts & locknuts to attach. Be sure to note which holes
you used and bolt the remaining panels in the same position.

3. Allow a few holes above the Hanging Panel and attach the Stabilizer Bar

between the Panel Straps using four ½” bolts & locknuts. (See pg. 08)

4. After all panels are installed, you will need to adjust the top

cables to level the panels completely. Adjust turnbuckles on
every arm until they are exactly the same.

panel before locating and attaching panel. As you install the gate and curved panels, adjust the Round Pen panels
around until there is approx. 4"- 6" of clearance between the hanging panel and curved panel on the Inner Ring and
approx. 7"- 9" on Outer Ring, as shown on page 08, under Critical Dimensions. After the Bow Gate and rst curved panel
is in place, drive one Stake half-way into the ground, (Partially drive stakes to hold panels in place - you may have to
remove previously driven stakes for adjustments) going through the holes of the Anchor Stake Clips. Repeat as you work
your way around with curved and at panels until you work all the way around to the Bow Gate.

NOTE: Do not drive stakes completely into the ground until all panels are assembled and located to allow for adjustment if needed.

• 25 second “ramp up” time from start to

• 25 second “ramp down” time from engaged
to stop.

• One of the more unique and outstanding
features of this lead walker is the fact that if
a horse balks and stops the walker, there is
no stress wear on the drive train. The motor
simply pauses and then restarts. Horses
soon respond to the “pressure and release”
training and therefore adapt to the Priefert
walker with less resistance and no negative
impact on the walker itself.

Horse Walker is programmed to require
“reset” if animals stop the walker more than
10 times within 60 seconds, or if the horse
is able to stop the walker for a sustained 10
seconds.

When fault light is illuminated, press and hold
FAULT button for a minimum of 2 seconds. If

Optional Horse Walker Drag Installation

The Optional Horse walker Drag will help maintain a stable and uniform base-surface inside the Horse Walker
Ring. This can help prevent injury from uneven, low and/or slippery areas due to accumulation of rain water
and runo󰀨, and will smooth, distribute and level berming along the panels. Regular use of the drag will ensure
the best conditions for equine safety, well-being and peak performance.

CAUTION:

• Do not enter the walker while Drag is in operation.

• Be sure gates are closed while using the Drag.

• Do not stand on the Drag during operation.

• Do not allow anyone to ride on the Drag.

The Horse Walker Drag is designed to operate in either direction within the walker ring. Proper installation
will allow for relatively quick base-surface touch-ups with regular use. The directional-X design of the drag
provides the ability to distribute material where it is most needed.

1.

Determine Location

After completing the assembly of the walker and round pen, choose a hanging panel
that will be used for the drag. This will be the panel the drag will always attach to.
Components will remain on the panel for easy attachment of the drag.

Locate the HW Drag Chain Plate, Flat Backing plate, three (3) bolts and nuts.

These will attach to the bottom of the selected panel, 3 squares in from the outer
edge. Attach with bolts and nuts (See Fig.1).

Insert one (1) Spring Clip through the last link of a length of Chain and

clip to the plate. Move the remainder of the chain to the edge of the panel.
Repeat for other plate.

2.

Attach Drag

• Do not use the Drag with horses in the walker.

• Unclip and remove the Drag and Chains from the

walker ring immediately after use.

• Remove the accumulations of grass, rocks or other
debris after dragging to prevent tripping hazards.

HW Drag Chain Plate &

Backing Plate Assembly

SPRING CLIP

3 SQUARES

}

Fig.1

Place the Drag in the center of the Horse Walker ring. Study the picture below and notice the directional-X design of the Drag.
The long “X” end of the Drag pulls the base material in from the edge. The short “X” end spreads and levels the base material.
If the base material has built-up along the outer panels, locate the Drag with the long “X” end facing out (See Fig.2).
If the base material has deposited along the inner panels, turn the Drag around so the long “X” faces in. This feature allows
pulling the base material back into the center with even distribution.

When attaching the Chain to the Drag,
allow just enough length in the Chain for the
leading edge of the Drag to align with the
panel. Insert a Spring Clip through a link and
clip to the inner-side, center eyelet. Then,
on the outer Chain, add an additional 6-8
links of slack so the Drag will pull at a slight
angle. This slight angle will help stabilize the
Drag, and allow dragging in either direction.
Then insert a Spring Clip through a link
and clip to the outer-side, center eyelet.
Again, study the diagram for clarity.

BEGIN ASSEMBLY HERE

Be sure to have a licensed plumber facilitate connections of the water supply. Stub-up waterline where the Water Supply
Tee will be located to enable connection. Priefert recommends 3/4" Sch40 PVC, sand sheathed, buried below freeze level.

After completing the assembly of the walker and round pen, determine a location closest to the water supply.
Preferably, the water supply will be installed during the concrete pad preparation. This allows waterline to be run
at the same time as electrical conduit (pg. 1).

If necessary, a water supply may need to be brought to the location of the Horse Walker. If this is the case, water supply
will have to be buried beneath the walker panels and dirt base.

1. Prepare The Nozzles

Unpack and identify all parts before beginning.
Assemble ten (10) Spray Nozzles (See Diagram 1).
Locate Poly Tube and cut ten (10) sections, 2" long.
Insert assembled Spray Nozzles fully into one end of each.
Locate eight (8) PVC Tee ttings and insert into the other end of eight (8) of the tubes on the Spray Nozzles.

Diagram 1

Locate two (2) PVC 90˚ ttings, and insert them into the remaining two (2) Spray Nozzle tubes.
Locate the one (1) remaining Tee tting. This will be used for the connection to the water supply.

Spray Kit installs on the Inner Ring,

section of each panel, Nozzles facing

outward. (See Diagram 2)

2. Assemble The Tubing

Begin by determining where the closest panel

connection is to the water supply. This will be
the starting point to run tubing and nozzles from.
Preferably, this will be opposite of the Bow Gate
or generally centered between the two ends of
the nished tubing assembly (See Diagram 2).

Connect the remaining Tee tting to one end of

the Tubing. This Tee will connect to the main
water supply from the Anti-Siphon valve.

Attach to the rail at the top of the solid section

of the panel with supplied, self-tapping, sheet
metal screw and Tubing Strap (See Diagram 3).
Use three to ve Tubing Straps per panel to hold Tubing securely. Some adjustment may be necessary after completing
assembly. Add Tubing Straps as needed.

Attaching Water Supply

Before connecting the Anti-siphon valve and Timer, a ow test should be done to check for leaks or obstructions.

A ½" nipple connector is provided to attach a common garden hose to the tubing to check for any problems prior to nal
waterline connections.

After verifying all connections, determine the location for the anti-siphon valve and timer. Convenient locations near the Walker

Control Box is recommended, but not required. The anti-siphon valve is controlled by the timer and must be in-line with the main
water supply to the Spray Kit assembly. (See diagram 4)

Read assembly instructions included in the Anti-Siphon Valve package, and the instructions in the Timer package to determine

the best assembly options to meet your specic needs. If you have and uncertainties as to wiring or plumbing connections,
please have a qualied professional perform the installation.
