<p>Re: Rb44 powered logsplitter</p>
<p> </p>
<p>"It'll do it but you will have to alter the blow out on the winch or fit a 2nd circuit,"</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hi Grey git, I have just put a winch back on the front of my RB and also got that log splitter for the linkage on the back.</p>
<p>From your post I assumed that the winch had it own blow our valve on it so just T'd the pipes off the control unit - quick release pipes front and pipes back.</p>
<p>Now though the tractor fitter says that the spool valve (blow out) is on that unit itself (controlled by the lever in the cab and therefore I would have to re-set the valve each time I use each machine otherwise the winch will be under too much pressure as the splitter needs 2,300 -2,500 PSI.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This is my fault for not understanding how the system works properly before getting the work done etc.. but just to check, you did mean the blow out valve on the control unit? and therefore there isn't one on the winch itself?</p>

<p>Hi Grey git,</p>
<p>Was just wondering where you sourced the aluninium T&G that you used to make the sides on your RB44? I have just bought a RB44 last week which has a chipper bolted to it so is 'Special purpose vehicle' Mot exempt and runs on red. I am going to move the chipper of the front and have it so that is slides out of the side of the box (just behind the cab) and chips directly into the box through a hatch. The weight of the tipper that is already on there + the small petrol chipper means that the truck is already about 4.2 ton unladen, so I really need to hold back on adding too much steel to the design, I do also need a lockable tool store though to be integrated into the box, which will all tip, chipper and all! any tips on where to source the ally and also any RB tips welcome ;-)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
