I have a Case 650M dozer to which I want to add a ripper, but it only has 3 valve setup. Any suggestions or experience on expanding capability of hydraulics? Looks like splitting the line feeding the blade angle function would be the best option, but getting that done is another challenge!!! Thanks.

You could do what you suggest with a diverter. You could also add another remote, home built, from the power beyond port. That gets more complicated...

I needed a 4th function for my new Steffen hay grapple. Steffen uses a Fasse splitter that bolts to the grapple or to your FEL. I connect my 3rd function hoses to it, flip the switch, and get a 4th function.
