ABSTRACT:
A time saving automatic hydraulic control for that sequence in operations in which a grab excursioning out of sight of the operator, is sequentially lowered open to engage work material, closed to pick up a load, and then hoisted with its load and emptied. A logic circuit is activated to stop the lowering within an adjustable timed period after initial work engagement to provide desired penetration of the work material by the grab followed by a minimal time for grab closing to provide an adjustable constancy of loads and a positive sequential control for the lowering and hoisting modes.
