CHECK OUT HOW IT WORKS!
So, you want a new powered cattle crush, but you don’t have electricity in your yards?
let’s face it, a lOUD generator thundering in the background all day causes you stress as much as it does your cattle.
With everything on your plate, your cattle crush shouldn’t add to your worries.
Are you:
- A large cattle station facing the challenge of using loud generators in remote areas, causing stress for your cattle and difficulties for your team?
- A stud operation having trouble handling large bulls in your crush with inadequate vet space and a difficult catch?
- A family-run farm finding yard work slow and inefficient, despite relying on family help, because of fixed, stationary crush operations?
- A feedlot running regular inductions on animals with varying temperaments and are worried about the safety of your staff and animals?
Introducing the Morrissey Hydraulic Crush: a solar-powered, quiet crush alternative, eliminating the need for high cost, loud traditional power sources.
Being the
world's first battery powered crush, its unique design is centred around minimizing stress and improving efficiency, offering a smarter way to handle cattle, and ensuring operator and animal safety whilst reducing costs.

FEATURES
The World's First Solar Powered Crush
With its unique design, the crush's hydraulic unit is powered by a 12-volt lithium battery, whilst continually receiving charge from two 475W solar panels.
This creates a low-noise environment for efficient processing whilst also allowing the crush to be both portable and used in even the most remote locations.
Safe and Easy Head Access
Once the animal's neck is caught, operators can utilise the neck extension to pull the animal's head forward to your desired distance.
Key Benefits:
- Immoblises the animal's head - removing the need for a chin bar or scoop.
- Easy access to inoculation sites in the neck and behind the ear.
- There's no need for the operator's arms to be inside the crush, reducing the risk of injury.
Anti-Slip & Added Comfort
The thick rubber matting on the floor and head bail provides added comfort for the cattle, reducing noise and providing a low-stress environment. Additionally, the rubber is designed to be anti-slip.
Key Benefits:
- Reduces slipping injuries
- Rubber moulds to the animal's neck, restricting movement and head slippage.
- Catches bulls more effectively by restricting their ability to slip out of the head bail.
Maximum Safety, Zero Compromises
Incorporating an independent top and
bottom squeeze, the Morrissey Hydraulic
Crush will immobilise animals of
any size, whether it's your largest bull or smallest calf.
With the ability to set the crush in a "V" formation, the squeeze also controls the animal's pace through the crush, ensuring a good catch every time and a safe environment for all.
Operate With Ease
Controlling the back gate, squeeze, head bail and neck extension, the remote allows command over all key crush functions.
Are you finding it hard to get labour or often using the crush by yourself? With over 20m of range, users can easily operate the crush whilst performing other tasks anywhere in the yards.
Durability and Longevity
Boasting up to 6mm thick Australian steel, this crush is as durable as it comes, but let's face it, general wear and tear is inevitable.
However, our laser-cut, bolted design ensures the crush will last you a lifetime. Constructed in modules, all elements are interchangeable and can be easily replaced.
Additionally, all bearings, hydraulic fittings etc. are standard off-the-shelf. Just pop into your local hardware store or hydraulic specialist.
