Went to look at cows near calving one night after a session, was absolutely locked. didn't take out the fingers when I was pulling two doors together, crushed three fingers, breaking bones in two of them, ....had to be registered as a farm accident in A and E despite pleading that farming wasn't the cause

I'm assuming your on about the build up of **** at the edges of the slats. Well if you get a slurry tanker and fill it with water and add the 2 inch water hose off the back of it. It cuts through it like a hot knives through butter

whelan2

ah ok i thought you where on about the back of the mats/cubicles:)

Well you could use it for that too. We clean all our slats here with the tanker

Yeah. The old saying " a lock only stops an honest man " springs to mind.

Feckin scumbags. The only access to our farm goes past my front gate. We were advised to put the locked gate just at the entry so anyone coming down has to stop outside our house to interfere with the gate. Seems to have worked as one 6am visitor was spooked and tore off back up the lane.
