Excavator Foot Tilt Bucket Control To Hand Tilt control

excavatorr ยท 2012-05-13 14:42

I have a Komatsu 200-8. It has the control for the tilt bucket on the floor. I am wondering how I can get it onto a hand control. Is the hand control easier or is foot control easier. Thanks

    The only way I can see to move it to hand control is to go for an electric over hydraulic set up. Hard to say which is easier but with practise you should master foot control, depends how sensitive the foot controls are.

    We got one machine with hand control and one on the floor . Hand control is by far the easiest . Needs to be wired into joy stick
