Remote Control Power Shut-Off FARM SHOP Miscellaneous 19-2-13 "We load out 1,000 to 1,200 lbs. of grain and supplement a day in our beef feeding operation and we haven't overloaded our bunk wagons once in the two months we've had it," says Fred Germann of Dwight, Kan., about a new radio-controlled power shut-off for auger motors, pumps, lights, etc.
Called the Hired Hand from Oak Grove Fabrication, the unit is rated at 20 amps and handles up to a 1 hp motor. A control box plugs into a wall or power cord, then into the motor, pump or lights you want to control. Once you throw the switch on the control box, the Hired Hand takes over operation via remote control. When loading feed as Germann does, for example, the Hired Hand frees you up to operate and read your scale so you don't overload wagons.
