Controls Mowi300

[Cruiser_79]

Recently I bought a used TP270 frontmount chipper. Was looking for a replacement for my schliessing zx400 for a while but most chippers were too expensive/too big/too small or not suitable for crane infeed. At an auction I could get it for a fair enough price, so now it's over here standing in the shed 💪

Previous owner took the controls of the crane and put them in a new chipping combination apparently. So now I started looking for new joysticks but don't know what type I need. There is a Parker valve block on it, with TM58402 proportional solenoids. Does anyone know what I would need to get it working? Can the joysticks control the valves directly or is there a kind of PLC needed in between?

Thanks for the info. I contacted them, but unfortunately they couldn't help me because the don't use parker valves anymore. On the internet I found a company that can deliver a complete system with joysticks etc; loglink.eu. Looks promising and very profi as well.

The TP290 I briefly operated  with the mowi crane mounted on it was all controlled by one joystick, which took a bit of getting used to, biggest problem was not being able to see into the throat of the chipper from the cab.

They offered me a one joystick system as well. But I spend quite some time on tracked excavators so I'm pretty  sure I can't get used to a one joystick system... Same story for the other guys that will work with this unit as well. You had a rear mount 290? Believe that 270 is the biggest front mount chipper. I will have to find a solution for mounting 2 joysticks. It will be mounted to a MF 7618 probably, and they have a huge armrest on the rightside with all kind of integrated handles, valves etc..

Yes on a big JD, badly plumbed in as the oil overheated.
