Trailing Shoe Slurry Applicator

Major Retro-Fit Farmer Spec Trailing Shoe

The MAJOR farmer specification Trailing Shoe slurry applicator sits close to the rear of the tanker for better weight distribution and is designed to fit any size tanker.

This unit is easily mounted onto the back door without welding or fabricating, and can be used with the existing splashplate in place.

 

Slurry enters the macerator through the 4” Bauer coupling and is distributed through the 40mm outlets. The macerator is fitted with an integrated foreign body separator to prevent debris from blocking the outlets.

It also contains self sharpening and self adjusting blades meaning reduced maintenance times. A large capacity stone trap is located under the macerator which collects debris. It can be cleaned out easily, without the use of tools.

The high tensile springs use the high carbon steel coulters to split the grass – allowing the slurry to run on the ground. The spring steel bars on the frame allow the outlets to follow the ground contours.

Features

  • Fully galvanised body
  • Choice of Vogelsang ExaCut or Mastek macerator. Both units distribute the slurry precisely and constantly
  • Can be used with the existing splashplate in place
  • Simple height adjustment allows the unit to be set according to tanker height making it adaptable to any tanker make or model.
  • Full lighting board is fitted as standard

Major TS-XTreme Trailing Shoe

The Major TS-XTreme slurry application unit has been designed for use in rough and undulating ground conditions, where a dribble bar system may have been used in the past.

A galvanised divider splits the grass and the slurry is placed in a neat line at the root of the grass through the rubber boots.  The divider plate is different to the steel bar on a trailing shoe, in that it does not force the boot into to the ground. This means simpler hydraulics, less overall weight and can be left on the ground when turning at headlands unlike trailing shoes.

The Major TS-XTreme is also an option for farmers where tanker size and tanker weight were a consideration.  This unit is lighter than the Major Trailing Shoe yet still delivers neat uniform lines of slurry on the ground, like one would expect from a Trailing Shoe unit.  The 7.5m is the most popular model.  It has three sections.  The middle section behind the tank is lifted by having a lateral pipe connecting the 8 outlets which is attached the wings at each corner. When the wings are lifted into transport position it lifts the mid section as well. This allows reversing and safe transporting on the road.

  • 7.5m working width
  • 30 x 40mm diameter hoses
  • Choice of Vogelsang or Mastek macerator
  • Can be used with splash plate in place
  • Parking stand and lighting board supplied as standard
  • Eligible for TAMS 3 support
  • Can be retrofitted
  • Compatible with the Major TS

Major Contractor Spec Trailing Shoe

The MAJOR MJTS6430 Slurry Applicator covers an area of 6.4m with 30 outlets. Slurry enters the Vogelsang macerator through the 4” Bauer coupling and is distributed through the 40mm outlets. A large capacity sump is located under the macerator which collects debris. It can be cleaned out easily, without the use of tools. The 40mm distribution pipes are finished off with couplings to allow simple maintenance of the rubber nozzles. The high tensile springs use the high carbon steel coulters to split the grass allowing the slurry to run on the ground. Pneumatic wheels are fitted as standard letting the frame follow the ground contours.

The ExaCut Macerator is fitted with an integrated foreign body separator to prevent debris from blocking the outlets. It also contains self sharpening and self adjusting blades meaning reduced maintenance times.

  • Fully galvanised body
  • Mechanical suspension
  • Integrated spreader unit
  • Automatic mechanical shut-off
  • Vogelsang ExaCut macerator
  • Full road lighting kit
