ABSTRACT:
A manure agitation system directed to an open top tank for storage of manure slurry. A gate valve is located in the floor of the tank which can be opened from outside the tank to draw manure slurry from the inside of the tank through a piping system and pump assembly and flow it under pressure through the piping system to an agitator nozzle for substantially high pressure discharge and located inside the tank generally centrally of the floor of the tank and which can be rotated to different positions from outside the tank. A pair of first and second flow control valves are opened to permit the flow of the manure slurry as described and a third control valve is then in closed position. When the third flow control valve is opened and the flow control valve controlling flow to the agitator nozzle is closed then the manure slurry is diverted through the piping system for discharge to a manure spreader or into the top of the stored manure slurry to agitate the same, and break the crust thereon, the discharge to the spreader or tank depending on the open or closed position of a fourth control valve located in the piping system.
