    You are going to like that tank setup. When I was still farming we put that setup on our tractor and loved them.

    Genius idea
    I like your work because your work is very clean there's is no overworking such as welding many farmers mounted tank in front of the tractor but you mounted on sides tractor also look beautiful I like your clean work and the frame of water tank attached to the tractor and the supply of water tank is just like as a factory work you are good in engineering works I am also fond of planting potatoes hope these water tank work well

      I’m glad you like it. We think it looks pretty nice and we’re excited to give it a try. We have never put tanks on our tractors before.

    For as far as those tanks stick out to the sides, it would be a great safety precaution to have some reflection on them. I would suggest front and rear.

    What is the small tank behind the left saddle tank? I really enjoyed another great video thanks.

      We are not sure what that is used for. We’re just gonna store the bolts in it. We think it might be for a freshwater eyewash station out in the field.

      @@RockyMountainFarmer I think you will be ok. If you did not have much weight on the back I bet it wouldn’t like it. But with a potato planter on the 3 point I bet it’s fine. Not the same if you were just using the drawbar for something

    What’s the spacing you use on your tractor you put the duals on? 60”? Seems wider than videos I’ve seen on corn/soybean farmer’s channels.

    What brand are those tanks and brackets. Demco? We always put our pumps close to the tanks outlets helps so you dont cavitate. I would like to visit with you in a more direct way if we could. Might have a solution for your front mount tank mount.

    Your pump should be closer to the tanks on tractor and your hoses go straight to pump . If you do it that way your pump doesn't work as hard . I hope your tanks are vented .
