Dear Mr. Mann: This is in reply to your letter of September 20, 1972, in which yo enclose a brochure describing your feed mover as requested by Mr. Andrew Moss, of my staff.; An examination of the material submitted would seem to indicate tha your classification of the feed mover as farm machinery is valid. We would not, therefore, consider it to be a 'motor vehicle' within the meaning of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act (the Act) based on the information furnished.; In addition to the Act (PL 89-563) and 19 C.F.R. 12.80, that you hav requested, we are also enclosing Part 571 (formerly Part 371) of Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Of particular interest to you would be the interpretations on mini- bikes that set forth criteria to assist manufacturers in classifying their products insofar as off-road use is concerned.; If you have further questions, we will be pleased to answer them. Sincerely, Francis Armstrong, Director, Office of Standard Enforcement, Motor Vehicle Programs;
