Float function: L3130 remote valves?

[texbaylea]

I have 3 remote hydraulic valves installed on my L3130. Valves 2 and 3 return to center normally. Valve 1 has to be pulled back to center from the push stroke and will stay back on the pull stroke.

Could this valve have the float function? I did not order it that way but the dealer knew that I planned to use #1 for a hydraulic top link.

I had thought that the PTO control cable was interferring since it lays against the lever but it is too flexible and loose to do that.

Anyone have a remote that they know has the float function?

It may be for float or it could be for feeding oil to a 3PH attachment like Logger Splitters that use the tractor hydraulics to run. When left in the push stroke position does the hydraulics on tractor still sound like it is under load. If it does then it is not for float. It is for running an attachment.

If you have the factory valves then it is the float. They do not offer a non-float detent full stroke valve.

Float detent valve option number is L8304.
Non-float option number is L8303.
