Snow Blade 3rd Function valve HAUNTING me

[Fromjim]

I forgot one thing, I see a safety switch in the attachment, does anyone know where it is on the tractor, and what it does, or does it have to be reset, I don't have a clue where or what it is.

Thanks
God bless

One thing to be aware of, if you are using the bucket dump circuit to angle a standard truck plow with two single acting cylinders, it will NOT work if your loader valve is in "fast dump" or "regenerative dump" position.
Not sure if that is the case, but I hate to see someone chase their tail around in circles for something that their system cannot do.

I am not changing any original wire connections, simply trying to get the signal from the joystick to the loader through the original wiring, I am about to go out again and try getting power from the tractor source to the solenoid at the 3:rd function valve. seems simple enough, had power there a few days ago but for some reason power failed after I had everything connected, try again today. Have any ideas"? let me know, I'll report when I am done for today.
Thanks
God bless
Happy New Year

Wish I could come over and give you a hand, but it is a long drive from Texas, especially this time of year.

Hi Everyone,
I started from the source, and it is the alternator, power to and after the fuse, about 6"from the alternator, went to the 7 connector and had power to and after the 7 connector plug, checked at the joystick and no power after the switch in normal mode, but when using the button to angle the plow I had power, hooked up the plow and Thank God had power to angle the plow, can't figure out why there was no power last night, must have been too tired and forgot to connect some wire, but all is well today, plowed all our drive and yard, worked real well, think I'll use the plow when we have small storms, it's quick and does a real good job. It's sure nice to know you can get help from you people, Thanks again, May God bless you and have a very Happy New Year.

Safety switch...the seat does it cut power to hyd solenoids?

Still don't know what the safety switch does, only see it mentioned in the wiring diagram, someday I drive to my dealer and find out, unless someone on here knows.
Well the new year is finally here, have a Happy Blessed New Year All

God bless
