[PSUBS-MAILIST] valve photo

Thanks for posting the pics Hank.

That's a pretty big valve unit.  

I have an old backhoe and a bucket truck.  The backhoe has manual operated valves and the bucket truck is electric from the bucket to the valves down on the truck.  It's far easier to move the backhoe right where I want it with the ability to feather the valve.  
I hadn't considered electrically operated valves because I thought the movements would be to jerky.  
How do you find operating the electric over hydraulic?

Thanks, Dan H.

  I posted a picture of the hyd valve for Gamma's manipulator.  You will notice the salt water corrosion on the aluminum, that is as clean as I could get it.  The nylon lines come off the opposite side.
