Mine was made for the previous owner for $1,200.00. When I bought his shaft drive unit (A basket case In boxes and pieces taken out of the truck, Now in it's 4th truck.) I gave him $600.00 for all... Mine is controlled by a pressure switch which is long enough to reach the ground in front of the unit so I can step on it and keep my hands free. Sort of copied after the Bane clene reel.
