Using Your Haygain
Steaming Forage
When you steam the forage in the hay chest, the internal temperature of the hay chest can
reach 80°C/176°F and above. This represents a temperature of around 100°C/212°F in the
forage. The combination of hot temperature and moisture (wet heat) kills the mould spores and
bacteria in the forage, protecting your horse from harmful dust and microorganisms.
To Steam Forage
1. Warning: Before you plug the steam generator into a power outlet, mop up any water
spillages around your Haygain
outlet are clean and dry. Plug the steam generator into a power outlet.
To switch on the steam generator,
2.
press the power button at the top
of the unit. The power button turns
green and the heating indicator light
turns amber.
To switch on the steam generator,
turn the rotary switch on the back
of the unit clockwise to the "Steam"
position and a red light will illuminate.
3. Steam your forage for 60 minutes
4. If the temperature on the lid thermometer shown is at least 80°C (green zone), steaming
is complete.If the temperature shown is below 80°C, continue steaming until it is 80°C
(green zone).
5. Unplug the steam generator from the power outlet.
6. Once the steam generator has cooled, unscrew the safety cap on the steam generator.
7. Hold the steam generator by the handle and tilt it. Empty the water through the filler
spout into a drain or container. This will help reduce the build-up of lime scale.

Do not allow the steam generator to run out of water.
If the steam generator runs out of water, also known as "boils dry", it
will be damaged. In the case of PB boilers, if the steam generator boils
dry, a buzzer sounds and the empty indicator light turns red. Switch off
the steam generator immediately. Before you unscrew the safety cap
and add more water, allow it to cool down. Do not stand over the steam
generator when you unscrew the safety cap.
