To fix the electrode on the neoprene girth: get MOLESKIN from drug store-shoe
section, cut a piece as wide as the girth and 3 inch long. CLEAN the girth
well, peel the back off the moleskin stick it to the inside of the girth.
place electrode on the moleskin.
MOST riders report this works great even with a loose girth.
HOWEVER. a loose girth going up hill at speed will most likely give bad
reading. Try to grith just sung ..try different setting from too tight to too
loose look for a compromise that the horse will tolerate and the HRM will
function.
