Instructions/Diagrams:

Common Uses
For placement of Z Tags into the ears of livestock.

Specs
Inserts: One piece Z Tags. Does not insert two piece tags.
10.5" long
Plastic

Benefits
  • Special pin system uses no knives or blades and prevents pin contact with ear.
  • Comes with an extra applicator pin.
  • Durable glass-filled nylon construction.
  • Locks closed for easy fit into pockets.

How to Use
  • 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 on one single motion. Do not release the applicator handles at any point during step.
  • When the Z Tags applicator is pulled away from the ear, the pin automatically flips up to eliminate ripped ears and damage to the pin.

      • Instructions also included with packaging. There is a spare pin located in 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.

Precautions
Do not use existing ear tag holes. Conventional 2 piece ear tags damage and weaken the surrounding ear tissue; application of Z tags in these existing holes could lead to lost tags.
Tag has a sharp point, please exercise caution.

For animals with soft ears: young calves; it is important to grasp the tip of the ear with a free hand and hold the ear taut to add support and ensure complete penetration of the tag tip through the ear.
