The only thing you need is a charging system on your engine to charge your battery

I’m copying your design. Thanks for the vid. How have the components help up? I’m concerned about that speed controller. Also- have you thought about using relays to auto raise the head momentarily and then auto return the sawhead? My electronics friend is thinkin of a remote control for this

Love the video!!! I just started doing my hm126. How do you have the throttle wired up? I have the same actuator

Check my channel. I have a more detailed video of the electric throttle.

How did you attach the drive system to the mill

@kevinthemiller9003 4 ай бұрын

I simply bolted the motor assembly onto the carriage. You can see the bolts in the video when I first talk about the parking brake.

Nice but couldn’t you drill same holes in bunk instead of angle iron?

@kevinthemiller9003 8 ай бұрын

I could have but drilling holes in the bunk would create a lot of drag when it came to rolling a log on them.

I'm not at my mill right now, looking at picking up one of the Throttle Adjusters from the link below. A video of it says there's 1" of travel, I'm vaguely remembering more travel than this - is 1" enough to go from Idle to Full Speed?

@kevinthemiller9003 10 ай бұрын

This unit actually has more than enough travel. I set the cable at full throttle. When shut off there is then extra slack in the cable.

@bobdriggers6111 Жыл бұрын

Maybe add an adjustable stop on the cut side. Something you could slide up and down the rail. For when you cut shorter material.

@dboutdoors06 Жыл бұрын

Where did you get the jack for lift and the main control box? Really enjoying your modifications.

@kevinthemiller9003 Жыл бұрын

The lift is from Amazon and the control box was a used box on eBay. The control box did not come with all the electronics. I had to build all of that.

@joearbuckle817 Жыл бұрын

Dude! That is awesome. I have been thinking of ways to do that to my mill. Now I know. Have you thought of making your end stop movable so if you are cutting shorter logs it doesn’t travel so far before shutting down?

@kevinthemiller9003 Жыл бұрын

Joe thank you for your comments. Actually I do have a system I’ve designed for the hm132 that has an adjustable end stop. Subscribe to my channel. I hope to be uploading that video soon.

Very nice. Not sure I am ready to do this but it is good to have the video if I choose to do so.

@a_farm_west_of_boring Жыл бұрын

Very cool. I saw another fellow who just used the toggles, but I think that your idea is better using the angle iron. It would be cool if there was a way to hook the 2 toggles together somehow so that you could throw them both with one movement. That would take some thinking. Thanks for sharing. I am going to try something similar on my 130.

@Dancing_Alone_wRentals 6 ай бұрын

Imagine the clamp handle on an aluminum brake. Now imagine the two angle irons are long and the come out together. You lift with that single handle. * You make an elbow in both arms so when you lift it goes up, but when you let go, the "handle" pivots down on a joint; getting out of the way of the blade.
