EquiGym’s
most popular model, the 6-horse, keeps the diameter of the banked outer circle
large enough at 68’2” to enable the machine to be utilized as a conditioning
tool for walking, jogging and galloping horses. There is a comfortable 32 feet
in-between the moving gates and 8 feet in-between the fences. Each gate is
double hinged at the top and is wired to a livestock electric fence charger that
can be energized manually, at the control box with an illuminated switch, as
needed to train the horses to leave the gates alone.
Since EquiGym
is both the designer and manufacturer of the equipment, we can custom
manufacture equipment for special sizes and needs.
The Horse Exerciser
goes quietly from 0 to 20 miles per hour in two directions. It uses 220-volt,
single-phase power, either 60 or 50 Hz. The electric fence charger uses
110-volt, single-phase power. The only maintenance required is to grease the two
bearings that hold the shaft, once or twice per year, depending on the frequency
of use.
The staff at EquiGym
has over 30 years experience with breaking, training, conditioning and racing
horses, and are available for free consultation regarding the installation and
use of the machine. We can recommend a variety of all weather footings, fence
designs and roofing, as well as help in designing the initial training program
for your horses
At EquiGym, we’ve determined that the
majority of horses need between 30 to 33 feet of space in-between the moving
gates in order to exercise comfortably. This will dictate the number of horses
that can exercise at one time within the diameter allocated for the machine.
Horses can travel safely, in a tight turn at most speeds as long as the outer
fence is banked and the surface and fencing stays solidly in place.

Standard Control Box
A simple forward, reverse, stop switch, speed dial and an
electric fence off/on switch.
The speed of the machine is displayed in miles per hour on the
keypad.
The direction of the machine can be switched at any speed
without stopping the machine in-between switching. Just switch from forward
directly to reverse.

|
Optional Auto/Manual Control Box
A simple to use, automatic/manual control for the Horse Exerciser.
In Manual it will run just like the Standard Control Box.
In Automatic it can be programmed to cycle through a set number
of forward and reverse cycles and a set number of timed cycles and execute the
above at any speed set on the speed dial.
When finished with cycles, it will default to a walk speed.
There can be an optional beacon light added that is placed in
the barn to signal that the machine is finished with all of its cycles and is walking the horses.
This control box can be added to existing Horse Exercisers
