A professional self-propelled manure processor is nothing without a professional driver who can work comfortably for hours on end, if need be, without becoming too tired. That’s why all Vervaet self-propelled machines, including the Hydro Trike, are furnished with the most modern, luxurious and spacious cabs with a large area of glass. The controls for the entire machine are within easy reach: the gear lever and the terminal are located in the adjustable armrest.
'This Hydro Trike XL is our fourth Vervaet machine. We never have any doubts when purchasing a self-propelled machine. Because of its simplicity, the Hydro Trike is indestructible and easy to operate. Combined with Vervaet's service, we are and remain convinced.'

Reliability is what counts when a lot of work must be done in a short amount of time. This applies in particular to manure application. That's why Vervaet opts for reliable quality components and parts, such as DAF PACCAR diesel engines. In the Hydro Trike, this is a 530 hp six-cylinder diesel engine which delivers its maximum capacity and torque at less than 1,400 t/min. Often, 1,250 t/min are enough to be able to get the job done.
Vervaet is also committed to quality in terms of hydraulics, offering two adjustable Sauer-Danfoss pumps for the hydraulic drive. The rear axle drive is a combination of a large hydraulic engine with a mechanical cardan shaft for optimal traction. The manure pump is hydraulically driven, making it precisely adjustable.
For optimum weight distribution, the engine is installed underneath the cab, to the left. It is easily accessible for maintenance by means of a large door, which is useful for cleaning and replacing filters.
The radiator is located to the right of the vehicle, far away from the combustion engine. The reversing ventilator automatically cleans the radiator, leaving you with nothing to do. An easy, life-extending solution.
The hydraulic pump group is located on the left side of the Hydro Trike. In addition to the Sauer-Danfoss pumps used for the hydraulic drive, an adjustable pump operates the manure pump, a fourth adjustable pump operates the cutting device, and all other functions are performed by a large load-sensing pump.
An example of the innovative strength of Vervaet and its partners is Vervaet's 2016 world exclusive – a fertilising machine which dispenses the right nutrients in precisely the right location. Fertilising in cubic metres per hectare has been replaced by kilograms of nitrogen or phosphate per hectare, in a location-specific manner. This is possible thanks to the near-infrared (NIR) sensor which varies manure delivery based on the composition of the slurry. Fully automated – you don't have to do a thing!
And via the Vervaet Smartbox, you can connect virtually any GPS system to the Hydro Trike's Isobus compatible section switch for ultimate flexibility. This prevents overlap and helps your customers remain inside the spreading area.
Filling the tank of the Hydro Trike may be a necessary evil, but our designers have done everything they could to make that process as quick and efficient as possible. The standard suction arm has a diameter of 8" and extracts manure from a manure container just as easily as from a deep manure cellar. Optionally, this suction arm can be 10" in diameter.
When you invest in the Hydro Trike, you not only receive its performance. You will also receive a team focusing on keeping your fertilising machine running. Professionally trained engineers know every detail of your machine and can quickly address any problem. Because of the machine's standard diagnostics system, 95% of the problems can be solved by telephone. This saves both you and us a lot of time and money.
