Hidraulic pull-down clamp for Woodmizer

[MobileSawMilSlo]

Hi guys

I have Woodmizer LT20 mobile version with hydraulic support. What I really miss is 3 or maybe 4 hydraulic  pull down clams. Those clamps are needed when I sawmill spruce which can be between 25 and 30 ft long.

The original Woodmizer pull down clamps are very expensive here in Europe.

I was thinking if I could modified clamps like these bellow.



I am asking my self if hydraulic reservoir (tank) would have enough capacity for 3 additional cylinders, hoses etc?

What do you think?

If the cylinders have hoses at both ends then you should not need a
bigger tank. Any oil pushed in one side will be coming out the other
side and be returning back to the tank.

@Kbeitz

Yes, you are so right !!!

What I was thinking

Thank you

Do those actually "pull" down or do they just hold the log/cant down?
