The thumb ring and two matching finger rings are zinc die cast, the plunger is aluminum and all parts can be replaced. If required, the entire gun may be autoclaved or sterilized. The extracting head of the gun is rounded and polished smooth to prevent injury to animal.
OBJECTIVE: To aid in the medical application of one to five boluses via an oral route administration.
APPLICATION: Remove the screw on the shaft and place in any of the predrilled holes (4) to regulate the number of boluses for application. A spring is located in the gun tube to aid in holding the boluses within the gun prior to application. Do not force the boluses into the head. Insert the gun head into the animal’s mouth at the side, center the gun to the center of the throat, push on the plunger and the bolus will release. Be cautious and do not force the gun too far down the throat or damage to the pharynx could occur. After releasing the bolus make sure it is swallowed before removing the gun. Slowly pull back the gun and remove it from the mouth. Clean with soap and water, dry well. Always use caution when administering.
