My older brother Kevin Mahalko works alongside my father to run the dairy farm operation.
It contains a mechanical timer and various relays and solenoids that run the operation.
In the wash tank is a solenoid operated drain plunger and a plastic hose that senses the fill water level.
This combined system washes the milker claw nipples, the milker hoses, the milk pipeline, the milk receiver jar, the overflow float jar, the bulk tank transfer pump, and the bulk tank transfer pipe.
Various stainless steel fittings are placed in the bottom of the milker wash tank and flushed with the swirling waters.
