I have a bx25 with a front mount snowblower.
It's been one of the most amazing attachments but it has its flaws.
I currently run an electric window motor which handles rotation. I blow fuses and it's not designed for the elements. During some storms it stops working intermittently and that's very inconvenient.
I run a 6 inch linear actuator for the deflector. It also runs into issues even though it is rated to be waterproof.
I have a 3rd function valve for my grapple which is useless during the winter.
My dream: all hyraulics
Control the lift/drop with my joystick (already exists)
Control chute rotation with left/right of joystick
Control deflector with grapply buttons open/close
Would anyone know how to accomplish this?
I know I need the hydraulic lines, a small piston for the deflector. I don't know what sort of motor to use for the chute rotation.
Do I need any sort of check valves or limiters?
