Product Description

Swisher Professional Linear Actuator Collection | Model 19957 (6″ Stroke, 1,500 lb) & Model 19368 (8″ Stroke, 1,000 lb) | 12V DC | For ATV, UTV, Tractors & Outdoor Equipment

 

DESCRIPTION

Upgrade your outdoor equipment with professional-grade automation using the Swisher Professional Linear Actuator Collection a comprehensive dual-option solution engineered to deliver powerful, precise electric linear motion control for virtually any agricultural, landscaping, or utility application. Designed for farmers, ranchers, property managers, and equipment operators who demand versatility and reliability, these premium 12-volt DC linear actuators offer two distinct configurations to match your specific load requirements and stroke distance needs.

Model 19957 features a heavy-duty 20:1 gear ratio with precision ACME screw drive and 6-inch stroke length, generating an impressive 1,500 pounds of pushing and pulling force ideal for demanding applications like heavy-duty snow plow blade positioning, commercial mower deck height control, large implement angle adjustment, and robust gate automation. Model 19368 delivers a balanced 10:1 gear ratio with extended 8-inch stroke length and 1,000 pounds of force perfect for applications requiring longer travel distances such as spreader chute control, dump bed lifting, adjustable hitch systems, and equipment with greater range-of-motion requirements.

Both actuators integrate seamlessly with standard 12-volt DC electrical systems found on ATVs, UTVs, compact tractors, and utility vehicles, eliminating the complexity and maintenance headaches of hydraulic systems. No pumps, hoses, or fluid changes required just clean, quiet, reliable electric power. Installation is straightforward with universal mounting hardware included, allowing quick integration into existing equipment or custom fabrication projects. The weather-sealed construction withstands mud, moisture, dust, salt, and temperature extremes, ensuring dependable performance through years of outdoor service.

Who This Is For: Essential for property owners operating ATV/UTV implements, small-scale farmers automating manual equipment, landscaping contractors managing professional-grade attachments, snow removal operators upgrading blade control systems, DIY enthusiasts building custom agricultural machinery, and equipment manufacturers seeking reliable OEM automation components. These actuators excel in any application requiring remote-controlled positioning, hands-free operation, and repeatable precision.

Power Requirements: Both models operate on standard 12-volt DC electrical systems commonly found on ATVs, UTVs, lawn tractors, and compact equipment (typically requiring equipment with 10-25 HP engines equipped with alternator charging systems). No hydraulic pump, external power source, or voltage converters needed.

Unique Benefits: Choose the right actuator for your application select the 1,500 lb model for maximum force in heavy-duty applications with shorter stroke needs, or opt for the 1,000 lb model when extended 8-inch travel distance is essential. Unlike hydraulic cylinders that leak, require maintenance, and need expensive pumps, these electric linear actuators offer zero-fluid operation with self-locking ACME screw technology that holds position without continuous power draw. Compact dimensions fit tight mounting spaces, universal brackets adapt to countless applications, and precision control delivers consistent results whether you're leveling a blade, adjusting cutting height, or controlling discharge gates. The sealed motor and gear housing require minimal maintenance, reducing downtime and long-term operating costs while delivering hydraulic-like performance with electrical system convenience.

Customer photo review of Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

easy buying process and great communication. Mulcher works great, easily clears overgrown brush and even mulched a 5" thick mulberry tree fairly easily. running it off of my old 331 bobcat with no problem powering the drum at all. Only small issue which isn't a big deal is that the supplied hoses are about 16" too short to operate a full range of motion.

Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

Over all built well. I like it is all cast iron and metal and not plastic. Had to modify fertilizer disc mount to fit correctly, nothing major, a little grinding. I modified the center link hitch point to accommodate my John Deere quick hitch. Have yet to plant with it but I’m sure it will work perfect. Love the grease fittings everywhere. Reminds me of the old farm equipment I grew up on, and still use periodically.

Cole 12 MX Multiflex Planter | Model B46-664A / 0120103 | Width 13" | Size: One Row | 3PT Hitch Planter Attachment | Horsepower 25–45 HP | For Tractor

My firminator RT was delivered in good condition in ND. I will be using it next week. I have a 45 HP John Deere tractor that is supposed to lift 2000 lb but really struggles to lift this 6 foot firminator RT. I will just have to use in as a two pass operation for now. I do wish there was a better operating manual for this unit. Maybe that is something you can work on. I will give you an update once I start using it in a few days.

Put this on Kubota 900 with winch hookup. This thing is a beast (within reason). I named it ‘Homie”, cause Homie don’t play. It will take care of stuff up to about 2” in diameter. You still have to remember that this is NOT like the ones on a bobcat or larger machinery. It does have its limits. But all in all I am very satisfied with it. Now on to the good part! The staff at Ripping It are outstanding! Especially Kayla in the office. She has gone above and beyond on making sure everything went right, from ordering to questions about installation. This young lady would be of great value at ANY company ! Her knowledge and personality are like over the top. This is my first experience with Ripping It Outdoors and I can only say positive things about them. With all that being said, I do fill out reviews on things I buy, AND I give a honest review. If it’s bad then you will know it. But if it’s good, well I tell the truth ! Again Kayla, from the bottom of my heart, a great big THANK YOU for all your help and just talking to you. I feel like we’ve know each other for years!

TENT is easy to put up , material is tuff as told....only complaint is that i wish the bottom had about 3 to 4 inches overlap towards the inside so i could install a 2 x4 or something to help hold the tent down in high winds we have here in virginia thanks

Hi, my name is Ken. I’ve had a great experience with Ripping It Outdoors. I purchased a Forax Hp40 Mulcher for my mini excavator. Kayla Patterson is who I dealt with from the beginning until I received it at my house. She has been wonderful to work with and looking forward to working with her with any other orders I purchase. Kayla answered any questions I had and kept me updated throughout the whole process, can’t say it enough just a wonderful person to work with!!

Forax Ultralight Mulcher | Model HP40 | Cutting Width 40" | Carrier 2-4-Ton | For Excavators

These are great feeders if you don’t have any feral hogs but if the hogs tear off the wiring harness from the timer to the feeder motor, you’re disabled. Then, if you ask for help from Outback, they refer you to the dealer but really you’re on your own for parts and repairs. I have three Outback feeders that work as designed. They’re 13 years old and have always served well but this feeder misses the mark by a very high margin. I’d NEVER buy this product again. Feeders need to be dependable and this unit is not.
