Can you rearrange the labels on the remote? Because it might be smarter to arrange the buttons in order of function. Eg, top left = table in, middle left = clamp down, bottom left = table out, top right = saw down, middle right = clamp up. Then you only need to press the buttons in order from top left down, top right down. You could also use that spare button to do two functions at once, or connect a latching relay to turn on work lights etc. Also a tip, when you've cut piece, table out an inch first, then clamp down, then finish table out. This will give you a little gap so the wood falls into the splitter section nicely.
Yes you can change the labels on the remote. They sent a huge sheet of different labels. The way I’ve got it set right now flows pretty well. The only thing I mess up once in awhile is the direction of the table. Thanks for the tip! I usually try to inch it back a touch. But at the same time I’m trying to get as long as possible pieces cut since I’m feeding an out door wood boiler. If I was splitting for an indoor stove I would make some sort of guide to keep pieces consistent and that would give me the kerf gap to make the pieces drop out easier. Thanks for watching!
Would have been great if they made a LH model for the 120. You have the right model for it - JCB. I guess it doesn’t matter since you want to run it from outside. Is that control the AC or DC model? Probably the DC? Thanks for the video.
Yea I had to extend the hoses but my plan was kinda always to run it this way. I think the skid steer processors are great but they are a lot of twisting and turning to load the logs. Also it can be frustrating to pick up logs longer than 10ft cause you have to pick them up kinda offset. The controller would be the dc model it runs off 12v from the Deutsch connection on the skid steer. Eventually I am going to put together a diesel powered hydraulic power pack to take the place of the skid steer.
