Steerable Manure Tankers
- ULTRA-TRAC
- AUTO-TRAC
Steerable tankers have many advantages over non-steerable tankers. During cornering, the front tires of non-steerable tankers must skid sideways, while Jamesway Steerable Manure Tankers turn the wheels into the corner resulting in easy, natural turning. This means that the steering system not only reduces tire wear and strain on the axles, it also reduces road and field damage. Steering also minimizes the "jackknife" force on the tractor during cornering so Jamesway’s high-speed steering system helps make road travel safer. The fully automatic system needs no operator input and the extremely simple construction of Jamesway’s Mechanical Steering is easy-to-maintain.
All Jamesway Manure Tankers are loaded with features to make the job easier and safer... front and rear fill indicators, front ladder, non-skid top walkway, super-duty discharge elbow and long-lasting LED Signal Lights are all standard equipment. The impeller blade and housing are made of T1 steel for long life, while the swing-open front door makes cleaning or servicing easy. The reliable oil-bath bearing assembly on the impeller is protected by 5 seals, providing trouble-free operation.

ULTRA-TRAC Steerable Manure Tankers
COMMERCIAL SERIES
Jamesway ULTRA-TRAC Steerable Manure Tankers are built for the tough jobs. The true all-wheel independent suspension eliminates the twisting forces found in cross beam suspensions. Every wheel is free to raise or lower as needed, resulting in less stress and strain when running in rough conditions, while the hydraulic suspension system dampens shock loads, giving you a smooth ride while handling heavy loads. The full-length trailer removes the towing forces from the tank body and (unlike uni-body tankers) the tank may be repositioned to always keep the correct load on the tractor hitch, even if heavy injectors are later added at the rear. Everything about ULTRA-TRAC Commercial-Series Tankers is heavy duty, including the tank... ¼’’ thick steel is standard equipment through the entire tank body, including the bottom, sides, roof, end walls and all baffles.
Big tankers need big brakes, and Jamesway ULTRA-TRAC Steerable Manure Tankers have the biggest in the business. These Industrial brakes have 550% larger brake pads and 65% more disc surface area than standard brakes. The Industrial brake system means massive stopping power with fewer parts to maintain. Jamesway always recommends Automatic Braking for maximum safety and to reduce demands on the operator, so all Jamesway brakes are always ready for Automatic Braking on tractors equipped with a braking port.
Choose standard 28L 26 tires, 800/45 x 30.5 low-profile flotation tires or for maximum performance choose the giant 850/50 x 30.5 flotation tires.
AUTO-TRAC Steerable Manure Tankers
We call them "Farm Duty", and we know that means "Heavy Duty so AUTO-TRAC Steerable Manure Tankers share many of the features found in our Commercial Series tankers. The full-length independent trailer means that the towing forces are not carried by the tank body...less stress is always good. The tank may be easily repositioned to adjust the hitch load when injectors are added.
Fields stay in much better condition as the AUTO-TRAC steering lets the tanker follow an easy, natural turn instead of sliding through corners and churning up the headlands. AUTO-TRAC steering also operates at high speed, making road work safer and extending tire life. AUTO-TRAC tandem undercarriages run on a simple walking beam suspension that divides the load 60/40 on the tires and the same massive Industrial Brakes used on Commercial Series tankers provide plenty of stopping power. Choose from 23.1 x 26 or 28L 26 standard tires, or 800/45 x 26.5 flotation tires for sensitive soils.
