Put the ear tag over the pin and attach it to the animal’s ear; avoid cartilage and ear veins.
- Flip applicator pin up to tag loading position.
- Insert pin into tag.
- Straighten self-piercing tip and push down onto pin. Make sure tag is fully seated on the pin before tagging.
- Rotate tag to the side. Flip the applicator pin down into tagging position.
- Tag through the front of the ear only. To apply tag, squeeze handles firmly together, and hold closed.
- To remove applicator, pull the Z Tags applicator straight down and away from the ear in one single motion. Do not release the applicator handles at any point during this step.
- When the Z Tags applicator is pulled away from the ear, the pin automatically flips up to eliminate ripped ears and minimize damage to the pin.
Instructions are also included with packaging. There is a spare pin located at the bottom of the handle. Use a light lubricant on the applicator and pin to increase workability and guarantee long life. When writing your own numbers with the Z Tags marking pen, be sure to apply two good coats of ink to allow maximum penetration into the tag panel. This process will guarantee longer-lasting numbers.
