| Running Gear, the family owned
agricultural machinery manufacturer based in Ballyhaunis, Co Mayo, has
extended its range of
spreading tanks with the introduction of the LCG Slurry Tanker range. With over 50 years' experience in the manufacture of agricultural machinery, the company operates from a purpose-built factory which boasts the latest in cutting, bending, welding and spraying technology. |
| The latest addition to their
slurry tank range boasts a patented technology which significantly reduces
the possibility of the tank
overturning on an inclined slope or in adverse weather conditions. The new development is achieved by running an axle through an axle housing which in turn runs through the tank, rather than underneath the tank. The main advantage of this is that the centre of gravity of the tanker is lowered significantly and the tanker is more stable when cornering and when traversing inclined surfaces. |
