Hi all,
I am trying to come up with a way to power a resaw attachment on a WM lt40 super hydro. The issue is that this is one of about 25 hydrostatic mills that WM produced. More specifically, the drive for the head is a hydrostatic drive, noy hydraulic. This means that the drum switch was substituted with direct linkage to the drives.
I was thinking that I could run 12 volts through a rheostat and wiring harness to power the resaw I would like to use. The resaw is the older configuration, with rollers but no conveyor belt.
I hope someone out there has some experience or knowledge in this regard, as the good folks at WM said they were unsure if it could be done.
