[QUOTE="farmer on a bike, post: 6810567, member: 295"] We have just had our application rejected because our choice of crush did not meet the spec. [I]The crush must be specially designed primarily for foot trimming. With an internal width of at least 720mm, the crush will have a head yoke, [B][U]rotating rump bar[/U][/B]. The crush will be fully galvanised or powder coated. Painted crushes are not eligible.[/I] [FONT=arial]This specifically does [B][U]not[/U] [/B]say it which plane the rump bar must rotate. This crush does have a rump bar which clearly rotates in from the side plane behind the cow.[/FONT][I] [/I]If the spec had specified that the rump bar rotated down form above we obviously would not have chosen this crush, but it does not. Has anyone else had this issue? Has anyone had this crush design (Comfort care M series) accepted? We are finding it a brilliant crush, very safe and easy to use, but it is going to be rather painful loosing the whole grant including the grant for quite a few other items.[ATTACH type="full"]862715[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]862715[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
