Electric Hydraulic Unit Useful on Tree Planter
Mounting an electrically powered hydraulic unit on a Lowther Crank-axle tree planter eliminates the need to install special hydraulic hookups on privately owned crawler tractors, and speeds the lifting of the planter plow from the ground at turning points. Very few tractors have dual hydraulic systems for operating the planter and the V-blade.1 Tractor owners do not want to make the necessary alterations because the dual system is not needed for other jobs. Also, the hydraulic systems of some tractors are not always adequate to operate both the V-blade and the equipment on the tree planter.
