Remote Door for Pro Chute

admin

I've been sitting on this one for a while.  One of my customers wanted a way to fill his planter from pro boxes without getting out of the tractor.  I guess these chutes come with a manual gate on the end.  To fill his planter bins he had to stand by the chute and fill a 5 gallon bucket.  Then dump the bucket in the bin.  Now he just has to drive along the back side of the planter and run the T handle control.  I don't know how long it takes to fill a bin, but this will fill a seed sack in 10 sec with no spillage.  Springs balance out the door so running the T handle is effortless.  He brought me the chute and the push-pull cable.  I made everything else from scratch.  One happy customer.

Reply:Awesome Boost! But how do you make any money doing that? I mean, it looks like it would take ALOT of time. But then I think it wouldn't be worth it to the customer to actually have to pay for all that time. I hope you charged enough. Great job."Where's Stick man????????" - 7A749"SHHHHHH!!
