We have similar set up at moment filling a Horsch 5lt , the 3 inch arag valve is quite a lump and how ever we position it it doesn't seal 100%, needs a 3 cam lever camlock I think, which I see is available but only in a NPT fitting not BSP.
Have spoken to our local spray outfit who spoke to Banjo uk and apparently none been sold in UK at the moment and would take 4 weeks to get here, plus price is quite high.
My arthritic hand might appreciate it I think though
I looked at Agchem solutions as you can pay by card and delivery was...
I am after something exactly like the photo with the handle and 3 lever cam lock, would make handling 3 inch pipes full of water or fert easier, plenty on USA websites can't seem to find any over here.

Just gone to Steel Blue boots with side zip as my Red backs have had it and have led to plantar fasciitis in left foot, seem far more comfortable.
Foot pain seems to be decreasing as well.
Have inspection on Friday , better get busy.
Had the e-mail about H & S as well this morning, don't disagree that its not important, but nothing to do with them , mission creep as said above.
I know the guy doing it as I presume all the others have left as we should have been done 3 months ago...
Thanks , I feared as much , my father had a gas pipeline through the farm in the 60's and he had to watch them all the time, doesn't look like like much has changed.
Have agent on board who is already acting for farmers, think our neighbours and us will all be using the same land drainage...
Same here, with National grid doing surveys as well for the Bramford Twinstead power lines the surveys where doubled, god knows what that all costs.
We'll be able to start a dicking around with diggers thread again.
Dormouse traps in the hedgerows was a bit of a laugh , apparently a neighbour...
Anyone else got the joy of Anglian water putting a new water pipeline through their farm , its running from Grantham to Colchester .
They want to start digging trial trenches this month!
Have used The Derv Doctor on a JD 6930 a year ago and he did a great job, new turbo and a mild remap. Have been asking him for the last 6 months or so to do a remap on another Tractor but i think he's too busy to come all this way. We are just south of Ipswich, where are you?
: As a smallish farmer with only two employees i do not need any more layers of bureaucracy. Slavery and HSE are nothing do do with you leave it to other agencies.

We added x-change to our Roundup vista last Autumn as we have hard borehole water and it made it go a bit 'gloopy'(if there is such a word).
Used some later without x change at 1.6l/ha seems to have killed all the weeds.
Was told Vista doesn't need a water conditioner.
