	Large bronze sleeve bearings are used for the pivot to increase reliability.
	A proportional valve is used to control the downlayer traverse and ease the downlayer into the approaching coil.
	A hydraulic decel circuit is used to control the downlayer tilt to smooth out the operation.
	Quality commercial components are used, including Parker Hannifin cylinders and valves, Omni rollers, and Char-Lynn motors.

Options:
