Guest Fendt pwr Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 2000 gallon redrock ferry tanker with over hedge boom and redrock field tanker Could someone pls tell me what an "over hedge boom is used for?Is it comman to move slurry from one tanker to an other out in the feild? Thank you for any help, I find these slurry tankers very interesting as I'm fairly green on these types of machines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Hi Fp, I think they use them to fill the tanks up in the field. I have only ever seen it done once with a boom. The tanker in the field had a big 3m ripper on the back which injected the slurry deep into the ground so I presume it would be rather tricky, time consuming etc when it went on the road every time it needed refilling so instead they used 2 smaller tankers running to and from the lagoon to fill the big tanker in the field which they did at the headlands. Don't think there very common though. Seen quite a few big artic trucks though at the side of the road with the treated human kind that have hoses running through the hedge into the field. The tanker comes to the hose when empty fills itself up from the artic and carry's on without leaving the field. All about saving down time on the road and keeping the tanker going I think. Hope that helps Nath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ihatepoundland Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 I've heard something like that, some study in the U.S reckons that if an artic passes over the same piece of ground in a field more than twice, the yeild is serverly affected.

NCC Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Yeah compaction is another big thing. Think I heard the same thing IHP they run 20 ton chaser bins to collect the grain from the combine instead of the big 40+ artics coming in the field. The artics now just wait on the road or headland and the chaser bin come to them. Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Fendt pwr Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Thanks guys,I enjoy reading your replies on my slurry tanker questions. I've only done one season's work with a slurry tanker and still have alot of questions to ask about diffrent types of set ups etc. Here is the New Holland 8360 tractor and vacuum tanker I used to spread cow slurry.
