Bauer slurry tankers more attractive for large-scale slurry and digestate spreading

...............................................................................................................................................................................................

Direct sales approach makes Bauer slurry tankers more attractive for large-scale slurry and digestate spreading Bauer is re-launching its high-specification tankers in Britain by supplying contractors and large farm operators direct at more favourable prices but with service and parts support still available nationwide through Bauer dealers.

“The market for large tankers with specialist application equipment is very competitive with a number of players involved,” says Adrian Tindall, Bauer UK & Ireland sales manager. “Dealing direct with the professional operators most likely to use our machines will enable us to ensure we provide the right features and specification for their needs, at prices competitive with other high-quality products.”

Bauer tankers available in sizes from 10.5cu m to 24cu m – 10,500-litres to 24,000-litres – are unique in the UK and Ireland for having a hand-made polyester tank mounted on a galvanised steel chassis. The heart-shaped tank cross section results in a low centre of gravity for good stability in hilly fields and on the road, while indents provide ample space for wide and large diameter flotation tyres to minimise soil compaction.

Using polyester rather than steel saves a significant amount of weight over a quality-spec steel tanker – as much as 3 tonnes with the 24cu m model. It also provides a container impervious to corrosion.

“That is particularly relevant to farms and contractors involved in handling biogas plant digestate, which can be more corrosive than regular livestock slurry,” notes Adrian Tindall. “Together with

the corrosion-resistant galvanised chassis, it means these tankers clean up really well and can look like new even after a lot of use, which results in strong re-sale values.”

The tankers are available with Bauer spiral or centrifugal high capacity pumps giving fast filling and spreading rates. A front-mounted filling arm is available for quick turnarounds at the slurry store and a cleaner working experience for the operator.

Application options include a double nozzle spray boom for surface spreading up to 27m wide, and a dribble hose applicator in widths from 9m to 30m with a macerating distributor, hydraulic drip stop and hydraulic folding.

A drag shoe applicator with working widths of 5.3m to 21m provides in-crop application of slurry or digestate directly on to the ground; a disc injector in 5.2m to 8m widths places liquid beneath the surface for minimum losses through evaporation and quick resumption of pasture grazing; and a spring tine cultivator injector is available for incorporating slurry or digestate into seedbeds.

Chassis options include a cranked single axle for smaller tankers in the range to give an extra-low centre of gravity; rear-steer tandem axles with leaf spring or air suspension – the latter is standard on the triple axle 24cu m model – and four-point rear linkage for a mounted applicator.

“With all those options, each tanker is specced and priced individually,” notes Adrian Tindall. “But an 18.5cu m tandem axle machine with 15m dribble bar will be about £70,000; and an auto loading system will add around £6000.”

QUADCRATE® attachments are making an Impact We as Farmers all know that Farming is a tough job. Every day we face challenges that test our ability and to make the right choices to deal with them, without costing too much money and to make our Farms more productive/profitable in the process.

We on the Allingham Farm have had experiences of many of these challenges, as Cattle and Sheep Farmers ourselves.

We understand and can relate to what is needed to enable us to make light work of multiple Farm tasks.

The ATV quad bike has become a major tool on our Farm (as it has on many others) its potential is not always utilised by its operators (including my own) until we designed our signature product the award winning QUADCRATE. The Patented QUADCRATE which is foldable and can be attached to the back of any utility ATV bike was designed as a solution to a problem we encountered. With using it we could see so much potential, from carrying a sheep or calf to carrying buckets and bags. With it being an alternative to a trailer, it was able to transport 70 to 80% of the small loads we wanted to carry but if a trailer was needed we made it foldable with a tow hitch on the bottom platform to allow a small trailer to be attached without taking the QUADCRATE off, so we could have the best of both worlds. We found ourselves leaving the QUADCRATE on the bike at all times so when we needed it; it was always on the bike. Our experience in using it, told us that if we carried the QUADCRATE implements attached to our Farm ATV at all times we could 70 to 80% of the time deal with the different issues, so as we met the problems we could deal with them, saving time, labour and money.

As you can see from the advert below we have now designed a suite of products from Front and Back Postholders to a Sheep and Barbed Wire unroller which all allow quad operators to utilise the full potential of their ATVs. We have made up different Packages to suit different customers. We

have several other products which are in the R & D stage and are enjoying working with designs to get the products as light and as strong as we can. With us now manufacturing all of the QUADCRATE products in the home farm workshop we have been able to really make sure our products are of a very high standard and also create some local employment.

One of our latest products to bring out is called the HILLCRATE (see advert HILLCRATE Package) this is aimed at Hill Farmers who have very steep ground and who do test bikes to their very limit on areas of great steepness. As rolling the bike can easily happen on this type of ground the HILLCRATE is designed to make the ATV safer in the event of this as it would stop the bike rolling on top of the operator. It also can be used to carry a small sheep (35-40kgs) buckets and bags even 2 dogs and the gates fold down to allow easier access into the cage. We at Allingham QUADCRATE also push safety so please everyone always wear your helmet.

Over the years we have won several awards which have helped build our profile including Eircom Young Entrepreneur of the Year 2009 & Best New Innovation with a retail price of less than £10,000 at the Lamma Show 2013.

If you are interested in finding out more about what we do and the products we make please feel free to browse through our website www.quadcrate.co.uk here you can also see a list of all the awards we have received and a DVD which shows the QUADCRATE products in action.

With starting our business in 2010 with an economic recession really taking hold, I feel we have come a long way in really making utility ATV users aware of the many more options they could have with the QUADCRATE attachments fitted to their bikes. Like every business we have had real challenges to overcome over the years but with things starting to brighten up in the UK we think that we have set a good foundation and that the future of Allingham QUADCRATE is bright.

‘Designed by a Farmer, for a Farmer’ CE Approved

What do Allingham QUADCRATE® do?

‘Allingham QUADCRATE® design and manufacture Utility ATV attachments which enable quad users to carry small loads safely without the need for a trailer. With a background in Farming I know and understand how quadbikes have become an essential tool in carrying out everyday tasks. The QUADCRATE® was designed to enable me to do one of these tasks but its potential led me to start a business, we now have built up a suite of products that will make all the difference to you and your Farming life FOREVER’ - William Allingham.

Wessex MultiCut Revolution MultiCut mowers herald arrival of new concept in turf care

...............................................................................................................................................................................................

Introduced at BTME, the Wessex ProLine CRX Series MultiCut professional mowers herald the arrival of a new concept in turf care. This is the first time a range of truly professional fine turf mowers offers a roller mower with full width rollers front and rear, a finishing mower with four fully castoring wheels or a combination of the two, all in one machine. What’s more, the CRX MultiCut mowers can be front or rear mounted, with side or rear discharge and the option of mulching. All this is achieved without compromise, producing a quality cut and leaving the turf looking its best.

As a roller mower the CRX offers similar characteristics to the very popular Wessex RMX roller mowers but in a scaled down version suitable for tractors from 20hp upwards. Used as a finishing mower the secret of the superb cut is in the extremely high blade tip speed, producing a finish equal to that of a roller mower. The castoring

wheels account for the exceptional manoeuvrability in awkward areas and when front mounted on a compact tractor the scuffing effect is reduced while the rear roller leaves a prestigious striped effect on the turf. Side or rear discharge is achieved by altering the baffles beneath the deck and the side discharge option allows operation in conjunction with a side collection hose.

The CRX is available in 1.5m, 1.8m and 2.4m widths with the options of front or rear mounting, side or rear discharge. Overlapping rotors give one hundred percent blade coverage and Tornado Vents are fitted as standard, creating superior airflow in all modes of operation. Height adjustment is also very simple. A real breakthrough in multi-cut mowing, the CRX is the ideal choice for contractors, local authorities and groundcare professionals. Wessex International 01264 345870 www.wessexintl.com

Kuhn extend ranges New range of new machines

...............................................................................................................................................................................................

New hedgecutter extends Kuhn’s range of heavy-duty landscape maintenance machines Kuhn Farm Machinery has added a new hedge and grass cutter to its range of landscape maintenance equipment: with a 5.70 metre horizontal and 6.79 metre vertical reach, the Multi-Longer GII 5757 has been developed for intensive use by farmers, contractors and local authorities, and sits between Kuhn’s existing Poly-Longer and Pro-Longer ranges.

The Multi-Longer 5757 has a horizontal working range of 4.80 to 5.70 metres and a maximum vertical reach of 6.79 metres. It is capable of cutting hedge tops up to 5.50 metres in height and can cut 45-degree ditches to a distance of 3.63 metres.

The new machine uses a heavy-duty steel construction for maximum strength and weightto-robustness ratio, and features Kuhn’s OPT-VIEW arm with hydraulic pivot mounts and semi-leading parallelogram design with a 116-degree slew. The Multi-Longer’s frame is fully encased to protect the machine’s working components, with all arm hoses further protected by an integrated casing and a swivelling hose support plate which reduces hose friction at the arm’s pivot points. All joints are mounted on greased-for-life bushes.

The Multi-Longer is controlled by an easy-to-use four-function joystick which can simultaneously activate the arm, outer boom, flail head orientation, pivot and floating head for maximum operating efficiency. The joystick works in conjunction with an intelligent control console with temperature, fan and float warnings, hour meter, optional automatic break-back and ram speed programming functions. The control console also features a grass or wood rotor control with anti-reverse safety, and incorporates diagnostic and repair modes.

The Multi-Longer is fitted as standard with a 1.20 metre working head with 24 T-flails and is powered by an open hydraulic circuit, which operates a double cog-type V-belt drive. A range of optional flail heads, cutter bars and saws is also available including; a 16 T-flail wood and bramble cutting rotor for material up to 10cm in diameter, a 2.20 metre cutter bar for large hedgerows, and a 2.05 metre four blade saw capable of cutting through material up to 18cm in diameter.

For easier flail head attachment, a semi-rapid coupling device can be used to guide the arm onto the head attachment, and the machine can also be used with Kuhn’s STABI-LINK quick-hitch frame for rapid attachment to the tractor. www.jrileyagri.co.uk Old Fakenham Road Norwich, Norfolk NR9 5ST t: 01603 262526 e: sales@j-rileybeet.co.uk

Kuhn Farm Machinery has extended its range of multipurpose agricultural shredders with the introduction of two new models: the BP 10 and BP 100. Suitable for maintaining pastures, fallow land and for shredding crop residues and undergrowth, both machines are available in a range of working widths and with shredding knives suited to a variety of working purposes.

The BP 10 is available in two working widths: 280cm and 308cm. The BP 100 is available in 240cm, 280cm or 305cm formats.

Both machines are designed to be rear mounted and can also be used with reverse drive tractors. The BP 10 has a minimum/maximum recommended power requirement of 90/150hp, while the BP 100 is compatible with tractors ranging from 75 to 175hp.

The BP 10 and BP 100 are fitted as standard with hammer knives suitable for clearing grass. The BP 100 can be fitted with heavy-duty hammers for clearing heavier residues such as vine shoots and woodier material and is also available with Y-knives or Y-and straight knives for clearing undergrowth and crop residues. The BP 100 can also be specified with articulated scoop flails for clearing fine grass materials.

Optional equipment on the two machines includes side stabilising skids for the BP 10, and hydraulically controlled offset, lateral support wheels and roller with removable ends on the BP 100. Both machines can be fitted with running lights and turn signals.

The BP 10 range starts from £6235 for the standard version fitted with hammer knives.

Double success for Case IH Second prestigious award for New Magnum 380 CVX series

...............................................................................................................................................................................................

Double success for Case IH: Second prestigious award for new Magnum 380 CVX series Innovative Case IH Magnum 380 CVX tractor distinguished as "Machine of the Year 2015" at SIMA in Paris / Following the success at EIMA 2014, also the expert jury of terre-net recognises technological achievements / Efficient soil protection and high performance with Magnum Rowtrac Paris / St. Valentin, 24.02.2015 Following the "Tractor of the Year" award at EIMA in Bologna last fall, the Case IH Magnum 380 CVX was now distinguished as "Machine of the Year 2015" at SIMA in Paris. "This double success makes us proud indeed: it rarely happens that one machine is awarded these two prizes in a direct row", said Andreas Klauser, Brand President Case IH, at the award ceremony at SIMA yesterday evening.

Initiated in 1997, "Machine of the Year" is a prestigious award recognising outstanding technological achievements in agricultural engineering. The 2015 award-winning Magnum 380 CVX was identified by 19 independent agricultural journalists from trade magazines in different European countries. The list of innovative products included 94 entries in 17 different categories, the Case IH Magnum 380 CVX being distinguished in the 280 to 400hp segment.

Impressive evidence of continuous innovation "The Case IH Magnum series was first launched in 1987 and has since been continuously made better yet, step-by-step further increasing performance and productivity, reducing fuel consumption and emissions, improving operator comfort and thus optimising owners’ return on investment", said Marketing Manager Dan Stuart. "Without exaggerating, we can say that 27 years of Magnum tractors – and two such awards after this period of time – give clear evidence of the achievements of our engineers. And: 27 years of Magnum tractors also stand for 27 years of approval by the toughest test personnel and test fields you can get, that is farmers and contractors in their everyday practice", Stuart emphasised.

The new Magnum 380 CVX features CVX variable transmission, easy to use multi-controller handle, new LED lighting packages and of course the innovative "Rowtrac" option which provides the track advantage of power to the ground but with markedly less soil disturbance than seen with other tracked tractors.

"Receiving two such awards a second time – shortly before and during the International Year of Soils – shows that our innovative and "lateral thinking" indeed is appreciated by specialists who are well aware of challenges, trends, and developments in agricultural engineering. We are happy that all this has been honoured with the "Machine of the Year 2015" award today", concluded Andreas Klauser.

Case IH is the professionals' choice, drawing on more than 170 years of heritage and experience in the agricultural industry.

Bobcat increase productivity

Bobcat utility vehicles offer exceptional performance for increased productivity ...............................................................................................................................................................................................

New 2015 Bobcat utility vehicles offer exceptional performance for increased productivity Workers wanting to get tasks done more quickly and efficiently won’t have to look any further than the new 2015 four-wheel drive Bobcat® 3400 and 3400XL utility vehicles. As a leader in compact equipment, Bobcat Company has launched the new 3400 and 3400XL, with improved suspension systems, new industry-leading features, industryleading payload and towing, faster travel speeds and more integrated accessories.

Both the 3400 and 3400XL models have a sealed constant velocity transmission and are available with two engine configurations: a 40-horsepower (570 cc) gas engine or a 24-horsepower (1120 cc) diesel engine. The gas and diesel engines provide operators with greater performance — up to 40 mph with a dealer-installed kit.

The 3400 and 3400XL gas units provide easier start-up and responsive acceleration with an electronic fuel injection system, which adjusts to temperature and altitude changes. The 3400 and 3400XL diesel units have automatic glow plugs that adjust to colder starting conditions.

Acceleration is not a problem with these vehicles, as they can gain speed smoothly and quickly. An ergonomic lever allows 3400 and 3400XL utility vehicle operators to shift between high, low, neutral and park positions. The four-wheel drive system allows operators to shift on-the-fly to adjust to changing ground conditions.

For machine protection, both models have a full skid plate, a constant velocity shield and an optional brush guard to protect the undercarriage, engine, transmission and radiator when traveling over rough terrain, logs, rocks and other debris.

Improved suspension New Bobcat 3400 and 3400XL utility vehicles provide both an adjustable independent front dual A-arm suspension and an adjustable rear de Dion multi-link suspension system. The new suspension system provides the operator and passengers with a more comfortable ride, tighter turning radius, increased payload capacity and more stability when towing. Each utility vehicle wheel moves independently, keeping all wheels in contact with the ground, for maximum traction.

Honda Broadens ATV Line Up

Three new additions to the Honda Foreman range

...............................................................................................................................................................................................

Honda has extended its TRX500 (Foreman) range with the introduction of three new models; bringing independent rear suspension (IRS) and dual-clutch transmission (DCT) to the line-up for the first time.

The new models are as follows: - TRX500FM5 (manual, IRS) - TRX500FA5 (automatic, IRS) - TRX500FA6 (automatic, IRS, power steering) All three build upon enhancements made to the last new models launched in January 2014 - most notably the stiffer, lighter double-cradle frame, redesigned EPS setting and enhanced fuel injection system - but with further developments based on customer and dealer feedback.

One of the most fundamental changes is the move to IRS which delivers much improved performance capability, comfort and ride. IRS significantly contributes towards a 55% increase in towing capacity (600kg) and payload compared to previous models, as well as ramping up rack capacities to 45kg (front) and 85kg (rear). IRS also offers increased suspension travel of 216mm (front) and 185mm (rear), both of which can be adjusted to suit load and conditions. Additionally, the new frame, introduced in the January 2014 models and adjusted to accommodate Honda's IRS system, delivers improved torsional rigidity for class leading handling and comfort, and a smoother ride.

The TRX500FA5 and FA6 feature Honda's dual range automatic gearbox, offering the choice of automatic or manual modes with Electric Shift Programme (ESP). The introduction of DCT in automatic mode - for the first time on the Foreman range - means reduced power loss which delivers fuel efficiency gains and a smoother ride. A new dual shift mapping programme takes feedback on how the bike is being ridden from the ECU, and changes gear accordingly. Tried and tested on Honda's market-leading motorcycles for years, DCT contributes towards a 10% improvement in fuel economy compared to the outgoing models that the FA5 and FA6 replace.

Other enhancements to the new TRX500FM5, FA5 and FA6 aim to increase capability, comfort and performance, including: High/Low box - providing low-range Your Authorised Honda Dealer For Lincolnshire Please contact us for more information The Tractor Shop

power for climbing steep slopes, pulling away and negotiating demanding terrain (On FA5 and FA6 only).

- Dual-purpose reverse/parking brake lever - one hand operation; pull in for reverse, and push forward to engage parking brake.

- Full coverage front bumper - tougher all-steel bumper which wraps around the headlights and features integrated mounts for a winch attachment.

- High function racks - offering an increased cargo area with large steel plates including additional tiedown points.

- New tyre construction - revised Maxxis tyres featuring a new tread pattern for increased grip and enhanced comfort and handling.

- Brighter lights - 50 watt assist light, 35 watt headlights, with optimised light distribution.

- Thicker, wider seat - thickness increased by two inches, more optimised shape and 'gripper' texture vinyl.

- New grips - similar to those on Honda CRF motorcycles, half waffle texture design, diameter increased by 2mm for improved ergonomics and comfort.

The enhancements are a result of customer and dealer feedback, competitor benchmarking on handling, comfort and features, and an increased emphasis from Honda R&D on utility usage. The aim is to broaden the product offering to offer the most functional and capable range on the market, coupled with Honda's continued commitment to the highest levels of durability, quality and reliability.

The new models will be available with a two year warranty from Honda Authorised dealers from January 2015. At launch the TRX500FM5 is priced at £7,200, the FA5 £7,490 and the FA6 £7,790 excluding VAT.
