Set the timer to 134 seconds

Online timer for 134 seconds

At a kauri protection station, remain beside your footwear while the 134 seconds run, brushing every tread and checking the narrow grooves for soil. That span suits a careful clean when mud is visible but not heavily packed. Staying close means you can notice stubborn grit, repeat a brush stroke, and keep dirt from being carried beyond the station.

While you stand at the cleaning point, the displayed duration can be changed on the page to match the actual state of your shoes. Dry dust may release quickly, while damp New Zealand track mud can cling around the heel and sole edges. Adjusting the interval lets the cleaning set the pace: shorten it when every groove is clear, or add time when brushing and disinfecting still need attention.

Beside the station, judge the remaining time by the tread rather than trying to stretch the task to fill the clock. Use most of the interval on packed channels, then inspect both soles before moving on. If cleaning finishes early, use the spare moments to check laces and lower edges for stray soil; if it runs late, extend the duration instead of rushing the final grooves. This keeps the timing tied to the conditions underfoot and supports the kauri-protection purpose of the station.
