Instructions
Remove all existing hay and other bedding material from the stall using a pitchfork or shovel. It is not necessary to wash down the stall before installing the stall mat.
Place a tape measure at one end of the stall and stretch it across the stall to determine length. Repeat the process to measure the width of the stall.
Lay the stall mat out on the ground and use the tape measure to transfer the stall measurements onto the mat with a marker. Reduce the width and length measurements by 1/4 to 1/2 inch to allow the rubber to expand and contract.
Cut off the excess areas of the stall mat using a utility knife. Run the knife over the lines two to three times to cut all the way through it, if necessary.
Pick up the stall mat and place it into the stall. Use the utility knife to trim any uneven corners to make them fit.
Place new bedding material on top of the stall mat.
