Product Overview The 170L Manual Calf Milk Cart is a mobile calf-feeding solution designed for transporting bulk quantities of whole milk or prepared liquid milk replacer from the milk preparation area to calf pens, hutches and nursery barns.

Its 170-liter tank is mounted on a durable four-wheel chassis that combines large front wheels with braked swivel caster wheels for convenient maneuvering around dairy farm passages. A manually operated lever valve provides controlled gravity discharge without requiring an electric pump.

The compact design is suitable for commercial dairy farms seeking a simple, reliable and low-maintenance alternative to carrying multiple milk buckets during daily calf-feeding routines.
Key Features
  • 170-liter tank for transporting bulk quantities of whole milk or liquid milk replacer.
  • Manual configuration requires no onboard electric dispensing pump.
  • 1.5-inch lever valve provides controlled milk discharge.
  • Twist-on lid helps reduce accidental spillage and external contamination during transport.
  • Braked swivel caster wheels improve maneuverability in calf barns and feeding passages.
  • Large non-corrosive plastic-rimmed front wheels are suitable for typical farm surfaces.
  • Galvanized support frame provides a durable mobile platform for routine dairy-farm use.
  • Large handle allows convenient manual pushing and directional control.
  • Suitable for farms feeding multiple calves from a centralized milk preparation area.
  • Simple mechanical design reduces routine maintenance requirements.
Structural Components
  • 170L Milk Tank: Large-capacity molded container for whole milk or prepared liquid milk replacer.
  • Tank Lid: Secure top closure helps protect the contents during movement around the farm.
  • Graduation Markings: External level markings assist operators in monitoring approximate liquid volume.
  • Outlet Valve: Manually operated valve controls milk discharge from the lower section of the tank.
  • Support Frame: Metal chassis supports the filled tank and transfers the load to the wheel system.
  • Front Wheels: Large plastic-rimmed wheels provide rolling capability over typical farm surfaces.
  • Rear Swivel Casters: Braked caster wheels assist turning, positioning and parking.
  • Push Handle: Integrated handle provides operator control during manual transportation.
Working Principle Whole milk or previously prepared liquid milk replacer is transferred into the 170-liter tank. After filling, the lid is secured and the operator manually pushes the cart from the preparation area to the required calf feeding locations.

At each feeding point, milk flows from the tank through the lower outlet by gravity. The operator opens and closes the lever valve to control dispensing into calf feeding buckets, teat feeders or other suitable containers.

Because the basic manual model does not depend on an onboard electric pump or powered mixing system, daily operation remains straightforward and maintenance requirements are relatively low.
