Step 1
Fully open up the Cordura® cover ensuring that no Velcro® areas are touching and that the cover is pulled well forward.

Step 2
Facing the rear of your horse, pick up the hoof and slip it, TOE FIRST into the boot. Place the sole of the hoof firmly down into the sole of the Old Mac's -- pulling the heel of the boot over the bulb. Place your horses hoof on the ground.

Step 3
Wrap the main webbing strap around the pastern bone - from the back of the hoof around the front and then to the back again. Feed the strap through the metal loop, pulling firmly to secure it then fasten the Velcro®. If after securing the main webbing strap you cannot comfortably slip a finger between the horse's pastern and the webbing strap you have secured it too tightly.

Step 4
Ensuring both side flaps are firmly pushed against the hoof wall, secure the cover by pushing both sides towards the rear in a downward direction. The collar of the boot should be moulded around the pastern bone. Secure the cover at the rear by pulling both ends firmly around the heel, overlapping the Velcro® evenly, and then fastening. Firmly buckle up outside strap.

Step 5
Old Mac's are now securely in place. As a guide the middle of the four rivets on the front of the boot should be aligned through the centre of the hoof and the pastern bone.
