 (a)  Persons engaged in the business of manufacturing, processing, mining, farming, dairying or rendering a public utility service, other than common carriers, shall pay tax upon the transfer of a vehicle required to be licensed under 75 Pa.C.S. § §  101—9821 (relating to the Vehicle Code). When the person purchases a vehicle for which he obtains a Certificate of Title which is not required to be licensed under the Vehicle Code; and is directly used by the purchaser in his business of manufacturing, processing, mining, farming, dairying or rendering his public utility service, other than a common carrier, the use of the vehicle is exempt from tax.

 (b)  Persons who may qualify for this exemption are required to pay the applicable tax as a prerequisite to registration of the vehicle, but may file a Petition for Refund with the Department (Attention: Secretary, Board of Appeals) for a refund of the tax they have paid provided the use of the vehicle qualifies for exemption.
