Remote for chipper winch

[bigntrees]

I know they make remotes for whole tree chippers but has anyone ever heard of, or had any experience with, remotes for smaller chippers? I'm not looking to control the whole machine with the remote, just the winch. The chipper is a Bandit 990xp.

I know the Vermeer 1800 we looked at had one that controlled feed wheels and winch

I would like to be able to run my forward and reverse and my down pressure from the skid steer. The winch could be helpful sometimes but the down pressure I would use all the time.

I have remote on my Bandit 90XP winch. Nice for controlled pull while felling etc.

Perfect, thats exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you!

Maybe not. There may be far more robust aftermarket units you could go with for the same or less money.

Kurt of autofeedplus.com may be a great person to talk to before you commit to one direction. A remote control is just radio waves over electric over hydraulics right? Your installing all the stuff that is not there now, might as well go with the heartiest.

Good to know, the dealer's price with install was enough to make me shop around. Thanks again.

Does that mean you can't free spool the line out?
