B O R Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Really nice pics, its not often an implement can make a 939 look small Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watermill Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 Thanks Brian, you would be amazed how those spreaders make the 939's grunt too. The spreader in the picture is one we had a hand in 'designing', although I use the term loosely, in that we had input as to the configuration of the sides, fully loaded with sewage cake its seriously heavy, but we never load them up with dense materials, we have the cube capacity so we can do light compost or bulky fym and still get a sensible weight on.

I'm hoping to get some pictures next week of 2 rigs in one field together with an 865 working ground behind them. If I do I'll put them on here.

Tractorman810 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 do your guys cart the muck to the field to?? or leave that to the farmers? the sewage cake I guess comes direct from the works , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 when i was on the sluge for bloyes Sean we tipped in the farmers fields,cant remember the way it was treated,one was with lime,i do remember having to box in one type of sludge with the other,or any rain it would just disperse on its own,and it would really travel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watermill Posted August 4, 2015 Author Share Posted August 4, 2015 Hi Sean, yes we do the whole job, from selling to spreading including haulage in our own trucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I often wondered as you do see farmers hauling to the fields sometimes the. In comes the contractor to spread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watermill Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 Some farmers do haul their own compost home, I believe in som eparts of the country there are small sites where farmers might haul their own sewage sludge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
