Oscar 228 Upgrades

Here is my new line of upgrade add-ons for the Oscar 228:

1. Level 1 Stabilization package
- Ejection side lower bracket. This part will increase stability slightly and cut down some of the twist/shake effect

2. Level 2 Stabilization package
- Operator side lower brackets. These parts combined will increase your stability above Level 1. (requires Level 1 package)

3. ProAm Stabilization Package
- Frame Tensioner package. This cage bolt on will add diagonal support to the front and back of the mill with quick and easy installation.

4. TopWeight
- Bolt on sand/water holding device to add weight to the top of the mill and keep the blade on track.

5. BotWeight
- Bolt on attachments (4pcs) that allow sand/water to be added to the posts just above the wheels. adds stability in cases where TopWeight doesn't help or causes head oscillation due to twisting build up in the upper load.

6. ProFrame28 Package
- Replaces the entire mill frame. Provides a drop in replacement (put the 228 engine/bandwheel) which removes your 1.5" thin tube flexible frame and replaces it with 2"x3" box tubing. Flex is removed for 28" logs and you are ready for work.
- Includes space for 16hp engine upgrade, 12v battery pad for accessories such as electric start, electric drive, lights for night work.

7. ProFrame+Vanguard 16hp
- Everything you need to drop your 228 mill head into the ProFrame28, swap the motor, and cut like a pro.


Level 1: $19.99
Level 2: $19.99
ProAm: $19.99
TopWeight: $39.99
BotWeight: $49.99
ProFrame28: $749.99
ProFrame28+v16: $1,949.99


AllAm Plus Pkg: $125 (save $25)
- includes level 1, level 2, proam, topW, botW. Everything required to do non-frame upgrades

ProFrame upgrades DO NOT use or require any of the lower level items. Along with your factory mill frame, these items can be added to your scrap metal reserves.

Advice: Buy the Oscar228 and an extra millhead w/o the engine from the factory. Then purchase the ProFrame28_16v. Use the Proframe28 for sawing and the factory 228 for edging.

*All uprade items are made upon request by an unsatisfied Oscar228 owner that has a shop and fabrication skills.
