Keeping on top of slurry handling regulations

Low emission slurry spreading equipment is important for cross- compliance. Major Equipment produces durable, low-maintenance slurry handling solutions for farmers to stay on top of regulations.

The Major Retrofit Dribble Bar and Trailing Shoe slurry spreaders are universal units. Both can be mounted onto any tanker make or model without welding or fabricating. Available in 7.5m working widths, both use a powerful Vogelsang macerator to distribute slurry evenly and consistently through 30 outlets for precise application. Either can be used with an existing splash plate. For extra protection working in corrosive environments, applicators are hot-dipped galvanised.

Major offers four classes of tankers – Agri, Contractor, Alpine, and Tandem – for specific use or requirement. “All our tankers have a separate chassis supporting the barrel, unlike other tankers where the tank and chassis are one unit,” says sales manager James Cox. “This means 80 per cent of the weight is carried on the tanker’s axle and the remainder is carried on the tractor drawbar. This design prevents cracking from the stress of pulling heavy loads and for longer distances.” Important considerations for farmers travelling between sites.
