MAGNUM Series 

Wireless Control for Track Drive Equipment

DSC_1350_product magnum magnum

The Kar-Tech MAGNUM Series wireless remote delivers proportional control in a compact bellypack transmitter. Its compact size allows for comfortable handheld use, and it includes both a belt clip and a belt strap. The MAGNUM Series combines precise multi-axis control with rugged construction for demanding mobile hydraulic applications.

The wireless remote supports up to four dual-axis thumbsticks or six single-axis thumbwheels, along with toggle switches, pushbuttons, E-Stop switches and small displays for real-time machine feedback and control. A protective lip around the control surface prevents accidental operation, while optional side-mounted pushbuttons simplify throttle control.

The MAGNUM Series is suited for track drive applications for skid-steer style driving. A dash-mount kit allows the same controller to be used in wired or wireless installations for added flexibility.
