Q: What is the advantage of an automatic-yoke cattle crush?
A: The self-locking yoke captures the animal as it enters the working position, reducing manual head-gate operation and potentially lowering labor requirements during routine handling.

Q: How many yoke width settings are available?
A: The reference automatic yoke provides seven preset positions from approximately 100 mm to 240 mm.

Q: What is the squeeze range?
A: The reference squeeze body adjusts from approximately 760 mm down to 285 mm internal width.

Q: Does the squeeze remain locked when the operating lever is released?
A: Yes. The friction-lock system immediately holds the squeeze at the selected position when the lever is released.

Q: Is there good veterinary access?
A: Yes. TB access doors, four fully opening quarter doors and a removable quick-release cross bar provide extensive access to the animal.

Q: Can the cattle crush be used with weighing equipment?
A: Yes. Integrated mounting points are provided for compatible livestock load bars and weighing systems.

Q: Can it be installed for left-hand or right-hand operation?
A: Yes. The automatic-yoke arrangement can be configured according to the required operating side and handling-yard layout.

Q: Can additional cattle-handling accessories be supplied?
A: Yes. Rear sliding gates, extensions, EID equipment, weighing systems, head-restraint accessories and compatible foot-trimming equipment are available according to project requirements.
