How to Use The milk or colostrum extraction process: Always, clean the udder area, using the Udderly EZ Wipes provided in your kit, to remove any accumulated dirt.Gently remove the wax plug from the end of the teat so it does not drop into the bottle.Manually strip each teat at least twice to get a good flow of milk started. Dampen each teat or use bag balm to help secure vacuum.Place the cylinder directly over the teat and gently lift the pump unit against the udder.Squeeze the handle at least 2-3 times, this will start the vacuum seal process, locking the unit onto the animal's udder. You may want to hold bottle with free hand and tilt inward or towards the top of the pump until sealed.As soon as the milk flow starts, stop pumping! When the flow slows or stops, start pumping again. You may need to repeat this 3-4 times.To release the vacuum on the pump, push bottle backwards toward hand trigger to release vacuum lock. Do not pull pump off udder.The first milking will generally collect between 8-12 ounces of colostrum. If the mother does not let her milk down immediately, you may have to massage her udder gently to get the flow started. Push the entire pump and bottle up into the bag (like a baby bunting its mom while nursing) and let the weight settle back down and be careful not to break the vacuum seal. Precautions Cleaning bottles: The black O-ring must be returned to the lip of the collection bottles after cleaning. The milker will not work without the O-ring. Do not overfill the collection bottle. Never tilt pump backwards. This will allow the milk or colostrum to run into the air intake hole and damage the diaphragm in the pump.
