Woodmizer 40 1990 electro-hydraulic valves needed

[Rock Crawler]

Back at it on the old Woodmizer LT40. I need to replace these contact switch springs on the electric hydraulic valves. I do not know what to call them, and I'm failing to find them on Google with my use of the incorrect vernacular. Can anyone help me learn the proper name or point me to a source?

Okay... it's been a fight to get this 32 year old LT 40 running, but today was the day. We made 7 4x6x12' posts, 16 1x13 planks and 8 1x11 planks. It was around 13 degrees out, so we called it a day. View attachment 729381View attachment 729383View attachment 729382

You've been working on that for quite a while. It must have seemed nice to finally see the sawdust flying.

Yes sir. Due to the fact that the owner, my best friend, is the owner of Timberwolf Logs Tree Service, and we live in the Pittsburgh Pa area where we get only late December to mid February of hard core winter where he can't work and we can spend time "playing" on these projects.... we can't always get done what we want. And the track loader isn't available at his will to feed logs since it's often moving job to job with the Toro Dingo and bucket trucks to handle logs.

We mess with these things that are more hobby-ish when we can. I'm also a full time engineer at a nuclear power plant in Pa, so I can't dedicate myself to the play toys. But it took us 2 winters to bring the thing back. I take every December off and dedicate myself to dying annual maintenance and doing repairs to the Timberwolf trucks and equipment. And in the gaps we play with this kind of stuff.

But now that we've got it running we are going to make a 14'x40' 3 side building over it, then make a 40'x80' 3 side building to put the dump and bucket trucks under, and then make me a 14'x30' 3 side building to put my tractor attachments under, and finally to make me a 60' wide by 40' deep 5 bay unattached garage to put my truck, camper and a lift in. I may cut that last one down 12' and 1 bay.... I need to see how it's going to lay out in my driveway. I may cut into the side yard for the garage. The 14x30 is going to run along the existing yard to edge of lower driveway with the rear facing the yard. I could go up top by the driveway entrance for the big garage or I could push out into yard and cut into the hillside to have the building partially walled in by dirt. I haven't decided yet.... out front or around back....
