Remove tarp from bull. Spread tarp across ground and fold in half over and over again - neatly and tightly - until it fits on the bottom rack of the metal shelving next to the bull. Remove bull cover, lay flat on ground and fold in half (as done with tarp) until it can fit in the second metal shelf. It should only take up half of the second rack. Remove control stand cover, follow folding steps above and place next to bull cover on second shelf. Bring out cash drawer, Toast handheld and iPad. Fill cash drawer with cash from Manager.

During
BULL SHOULD BE IN OPERATION FROM OPEN TO CLOSE - IT IS NOT OK TO COVER THE BULL UP BEFORE 2AM UNLESS RAIN/BAD WEATHER. Bull is maintained in accordance with manufacturer specifications. If they are not maintained as recommended and/or required by the manufacturer they are taken out of service until maintenance is done. All riders are 21+ Caution is taken to prevent visibly intoxicated or drugged persons from riding with no exceptions. This is an absolute. When alcohol is present, I specifically use experienced operators who have proper backup available to them to assist with an unruly patron. Riders are a minimum of 48 inches tall My bull is equipped with a soft head, an emergency stop for the operator, a key that prevents use when operator is away, a barrier to separate observers, padding on all hard surfaces and a grab rope that allows immediate release when a rider falls. IF A RIDER FALLS, THE MACHINE IS IMMEDIATELY STOPPED BEFORE RIDER HITS PAD. Loose clothing, jewelry, shoes and eyewear are not permitted. Ensure bull riders only have one hand under handle and one hand loose. If rider grabs handle with both hands, pause ride and remind rider only one hand is allowed. Riders have been tipped off that placing hand under handle - facing the sky - is easier than the opposite way. ALL rides move very gradually upward from a slow start. Try to give riders a minimum of a ten second ride and never buck off a person with excessive force. There is no rodeo simulation or familiarity assumed, ever. I do not use the bull for adult/sexual performances. Signs are posted around my bull. The signs states “ride at your own risk”, “waiver required” and “those with physical limitations should not ride”. If music or other noise prevents operator from being able to hear participants, rides stop. EVERY RIDER MUST SIGN A WAIVER. EVERY PERSON WHO SITS ON THE BULL FOR A PHOTO MUST SIGN A WAIVER.

Ensure all empty cups, beer bottles and trash around bull are are thrown away Sweep around the bull operation and pad area Use Bull Sprayer to spray Armor All over entirety of bull pad. To refill sprayer - fill with half Armor All (located in cleaning storage) and half water. Deflate bull pad and fold pad inwards toward bull. Cover bull with bull cover, tighten and tie rope so the cover is firm over bull. Cover control panel with green cover, wrap excess cover, pull bungee cord tightly and insert into a metal hole in cover - so that cover is firmly over control panel. Spread tarp out and place over bull so that bull is in center of tarp. Place cinderblocks on top of tarp, around the bull so that the tarp is firmly over the bull. Remove air machine and electrical box and bring inside. Bring cash drawer with money inside to manager. Place handheld charger and iPad on chargers in office.
