Chassis Of Versatile Sprayer Converted Into Portable 400-gal. Fuel Transfer Tank
I converted the chassis and tandem axles and wheels off a Versatile 480 sprayer into a portable 400-gal. fuel transfer tank. A 2-in. Honda pump mounts ahead of the tank and makes short work of filling the huge fuel tanks found on today's farm equipment. We use our pickup to pull the unit. It rides and trails very well, even at normal road speeds, and the tandem axles provide great flotation.
  The tank holds enough fuel to fill two Deere 9600 combines. When the refueling job is done I simply unhook the tank, freeing the pickup to do other jobs. I don't have to worry about fuel spills on my pickup like I would with a pickup bed-mounted fuel transfer tank. (Benny Friesen, Rt. 1, Box 16, Morris, Manitoba, Canada R0G 1K0 ph 204 746-8436)
