U900 Aux. Hydraulic system to power Hydraulic tree tools

[ACUF]

Hi Everyone,

 

Has anyone powered hydraulic tools like loppers, pole saws, etc, with their on board hydraulic systems? i like the idea of minimizing noise pollution, and all the other aspects of gas tools, albeit, the mog will be idling, so there is an obvious trade off there.. anyway, any thoughts or experiences?

 

Thanks,

Take Care.

i just use standard hyd connectors you may need to fit an adapter to suit a particular hose though
