Dribble bars. Is 7.5 wide enough?

[james ds]

Lovely set up. Unfortunately ours would have to be door mounted from slurrykat as the tanker doesn’t have brackets from the factory. It’s 6 years old now. I’ve got a quote sitting here. One black mark for slurrykat which is totally bizarre is there is no lights on it. Every other brand has them on the bar.

Slurryquip will bolt on to the chassis , do not hang it out of the back door , it is a disaster.

I did read too that the shoe looses a lot less N to the atmosphere too.

Ive a choice to make.

Don't know that the shoe is that much better than the db either way both loose less N than splash plate. I noticed that the only time I smelt anything with the db was when the tank blows out at the end.

Teagasc say 30% difference in loss of Ammonia from dribble bar to trailing shoe.

I do far more with trailing shoe than dribble bar,that tells me enough

Not easy going wider without autosteer. Lines difficult to see on silage stubble

Bound to be a hard job in the dark

That’s an interesting point actually!!

I find that in fields that have been cut recently its almost impossible to see the lines at times with a trailing shoe but with slightly loneger grass or in fields that have been grazed its not as bad because the shoes almost stripe the field as a roller would

Interesting. The 9m slurrykat was the largest with a single, but also the largest size available for rear door hanging. It was also only 40kg heavier than the 7.5 major.

slurrykat will be made of the thinnest wall box section you can get......we have one and its not strong enough

Anyone got any opinions on Storth?

Just bought another Storth trailing shoe,I really like them,when the slurry Kat dribble bar gose it will be a Storth

Thanks! The macerator looks totally different to the slurrykat and major which both use vogelsang.. price wise there’s nothing in it between major and storth but the storth rep is trying much much harder which I like.

Does Cross Engineering in ROI have involvement with Storth?

Really like the horizontal macerator compared to vertical side feed vogelsang

Genuinely no idea sorry. It’s never been mentioned to me

They made the tankers for them once upon a time so just occurred to me.

I saw this last year,not sure on who was responsible for building it but I like it

A rough guess at who built it could be storth

 

[Wellytrack]

It’s like a Bauer tanker.
