Adaptation of cavesson Portuguesa
To adjust the cavesson optimally, the order in which the straps are adjusted and closed is crucial:
- First, adjust the crownpiece so that the nose iron sits about two fingers below the cheekbone and four fingers wide above the nostrils.
- The jaw strap is then closed. It can be moved on the cheek piece for individual adjustment and should be at about eye level. This prevents the cheek piece from slipping near the eyes. The jaw strap should fit tightly, but not so tightly that the neck or cheek strap gets a strong bend.
- The last thing to do is to close noseband .
This sequence applies to the first adjustment as well as to the everyday fitting of the cavesson. Once the bridle has been correctly adjusted, the crownpiece does not need to be opened for everyday use. However, to ensure the correct fit of the cavesson, the jaw strap should always be closed before noseband .
