Fager - GUSTAV Sweet Iron Loose Rings

NOTE: Gustav can be used in two ways: Either with tongue relief or with bar relief.

For tongue relief – If you would describe your horse as the following:

• Inconsistent in the contact.
• Pulls away or up when you take up the reins.
• Attempts to put their tongue over the bit.
• Fussy mouthed.

For bar relief- Turn the bit upside down.

If you would describe your horse as the following:

• Inconsistent in the contact.
• Stiff or rigid to ride.
• Bites on the bit, attempts to pull it back.
• Doesn’t seek the contact towards the bit.
• Drops the contact.
• Falls behind the hand.

Gustav is constructed with a 100% super smooth surface, even around the joints which are designed to never interfere with or push against the palate. It is a very comfortable bit that shapes naturally around the tongue and relieves the bars from constant pressure.

Gustav is an ideal design for sensitive mouthed horses whose mouths easily develop cuts, sores or rubs.

Normal in size, if you are between two sizes then choose the larger one.

The HORSE logo should always be on your horse's right side, facing forward.

BIT GUIDE & INFORMATION from Fager.

TIPS & INFORMATION

• Sweet iron is meant to rust. Most horses love the taste it gives.
• When you receive your bit it has protection oil to prevent it from start rusting before being used. It might make the bit look a bit filthy as first sight. The oil can be either cleaned with a simple towel/paper before start using it or not. The oil is harmless for the horse.
• If you want to delay the rusting process, wipe the bit dry after every use.
• Do you think your bit is too rusty after a long time use? Put the sweet iron in Coca Cola and the rust will go away. It is the phosphorus in Coca Cola that makes the rust dissolve. Please be careful using any other strong chemicals with phosphorus in it! Coca Cola works fine, we promise.
  Note that the blue color of the sweet iron will go away or fade along with the rust when you choose to do this.
