FromPEL-Tuote Oy
The Livakka Light 1- and 2-axle slurry tankers were designed to replace the standard Livakka pendulum bogie model. The new ‘farmer line’ tankers offer state-of-the-art features and a wide variety of optional accessories, which also makes them extremely well suited to demanding contractor applications.

The name ‘Light’ refers to a new frame construction which reduces the total weight of the tanker. The light overall weight and axle structure as well as the short overall length make this slurry wagon very agile to move in the field as well as on the road. Crab steering is available as an option for the wagons. With the crab steering, the tractor and the slurry wagon can travel on different tracks in the field, which significantly reduces trampling.The Light slurry tankers’ new frame construction reduces the total weight of the tanker, thus helping to protect the field. However, this lightness in no way compromises the tanker’s durability. A formed, high-profile U-profile is used as the frame member. The U-profile wall thickness is 10 mm, and it is welded to the tank with a uniform seam. The drawbar is made of 150x250x8 tubular steel.
The tank is 2000 mm in diameter and made of 6 mm plate. The round structure makes the tank strong, fully emptiable and easy to clean, as there are no extra edges or corners to collect dirt and slurry. Compartment plate and baffle plates in the front section of the tank provide extra reinforcement and restrain slurry movement.
Sufficient drawbar weight is ensured with a weight transfer system: the front section of the tank is compartmentalised and does not receive any discharge air until the rear section has been emptied. Thanks to the system, the 4 m³ section in front of the compartment plate that can hold up to 4000 kg of slurry remains steady and stable until the back of the tank has been emptied. Weight transfer does not come standard on the 1-axle model.
The high-quality surface treatment provides the finishing touch to the tanker’s appearance and extends its service life.The seams are welded on both sides, and all surfaces to be painted are steel shot blasted to ensure proper paint adhesion. The interior of the tank is given an epoxy coating to protect against corrosion caused by slurry. Exterior surfaces are given a polyurethane topcoat, which offers high UV-resistance and allows the tankers to retain their trademark bright red colour, with no fading. For those who value a more personalised look, we offer special colours. There are no serviceable parts inside the tank – a feature that adds to user safety by eliminating all maintenance-related works requiring entry.

- With crab steering, the tractor and slurry tanker can travel along different tracks in the field, thus considerably reducing soil poaching.
- The slurry tanker can be fitted with cameras, whereby one camera is situated at the rear filming the blind area of the tanker, and the other is installed on the crane to make the lowering of the pump into wells and other narrow enclosures safer. The images from the cameras can be monitored on a display on the Premium controller located inside the tractor.
