Yes that’s true Be worth speaking to the dvsa and see if they would allow a tractor to run red for dipping

That’s the main benefit of running it on a tractor

Hahaha that is true It would be worth the risk I think Them terragtors travel at 58k and we have no issues running them and there 3 wheelers as well Probably depends on each police officer

Yeah that would be hell of a set up Not sure if the back would be big enough of though for a cage and drying area

That is what you want Will have to ask him if runs it on red

Thank you very much I’ll give them a message 👍

There’s a lot less laws to navigate using a lorry Maybe a lorry might be the better option but if you can use red diesel in a tractor and the trailer is legal seems like a good way to target more remote farmers or ones with worse access. Then you have the option of a uni mog All modern...

Yeah very handy pieces of kit

I think space would be an issue with jsut a unimog If you could run an agri spec unimog on red with or with out a trailer Coild be the best way to do it but I’ve heard it’s very hard to run red in mogs as it is going to do lots of research on the laws of this because I don’t think there is 1...

That’s true was going to speak to a local ag fabricator and see what the best way to do it I spect an artic trailer would be the way to go

That is very true One fabricator made one to be pulled by a tractor up north somewhere. Would be very handy to see what hoops the farmer had to jump through to use it legally

From what I’ve heard 6000 litres of water is enough for a day flat out dipping which is over 2,000 sheep I was planning on converting a twin axle bale trailer Could either run pump of pto or hydraulics and if going to use hydraulic rams to put down ramps The bloke that we used had an...

Don’t the new 8 series fasttracs classes as lorries now That’s what I’ve heard not sure if it’s accurate

Very true was thinking of trying to target Farmers with poor access or where they have to do it in fields We used dippers before and they got funny if they weren’t doing it on concrete and if uou didn’t have high numbers or neighbours they wouldn’t come for weeks or wouldn’t bother

Based in Wiltshire You might be able to get away with running it on red, depends how they class it Could also do occasional job hauling bales or muck spreading to have evidence of ag work I know the new fastracs are run as lorry’s but surely an older one or a larger fendt or Valtra is still...
