Check Valve Question for Grapple

[Erik Graham]

Greetings, I just purchased a 3rd function kit from Summit and am the process of mapping out the hydraulic circuit. The other day I watched one of Neil from Messick's videos and he was addressing the issue of check valves to protect the system from pressure overload that can arise from forces that might be encountered using a grapple. I'm wondering if any members have installed one and where in the circuit would be the best place for it. Cheers, Erik

I think you mean relief valves. they should be on the machine side so they protect all attachments and not just one. but some attachments may not be compatible with the relief valves
