Kubota L3010, JD 325, JD LX255, JD355D, several restored 1939 to 1952 Ford N’s
I own an L3010 with a Great Bend (now a part of Bushhog) loader. Unlike Kubota, this loader uses the standard skidsteer mounting. I have bought a skidsteer snowplow off eBay. The plow has individual pressure relief valves on the two cylinders. I am thinking of hooking this up by installing a PB (pressure beyond) two way hydraulic valve upstream of the loader hydraulic valve which gives me up down and rotate bucket control. With the new valve us the old valve I will have up down, rotate, and left right on the plow. When I take the plow off the new valve will not be used. Any suggestions?

We have often used a rear remote to work the angle circuit for blades on loaders.

Correction - meant with the old valve PLUS the new valve - up down and rotate on the old valve and plow left right on the new valve

I have a L3010 and added a valve to control a bucket grapple. Here is a link to my project thread. There is another link inside that with more info. It is working out well for me.
Many here are buying 3rd function kits and also like them. Search 3 rd function valve. Good luck.

Thanks! Obviously my loader valve looks a bit different since I do not have a Kubby loader, but the principal is the same. I posted on another board and I have been advised to also install a crossover valve to allow the plow to swivel if I hit something under the snow. I am told that the individual relief valves on the plow is a less effective setup. Thanks again.
