Ford 6610 remote hydraulics

[Scott Y]

HI, I have a Ford 6610 with a cab, there is no loader on tractor, when I purchased it did not have the remote outlets hooked up, I added them, to use I have to pull out a knob on RH side under seat down by floor, this disables the 3 point, this system does not work the best, I would like to add at least one set or maybe two, Broken tractor has a two spool kit for a grand, not sure if this is the best route or not, I am open to adding a separate pump if that makes sense, but would then like to stay outside of the closed center valve situation, I could add a side pump, or there is a place to add a front pump on tractor, this tractor was purchased by the Government (Air Force) as a run way sweeper, this 6610 was made in England. Do not want to spend allot of cash on this, even the grand figure is getting a bit pricey at the current time. This tractor has the CCLS system, (closed center load sensing) Thanks for any help on this!

If you have closed center load sense system you can valves by teeing into the pressure line from the pump. You will have to use closed center valves with load sense. Difficult part is connecting the load sense lines together. Some valves have a load sense carry over port that allows connecting the LS signal from one valve bank to the next valve bank. If this is not an option you will have to install a shuttle valve in load sense lines from the two valves and then connect the common port of the shuttle to the pump LS.

Make sure that the valve you choose has shuttles built in for selecting which spool is active.

You will also have to determine how the LS signal is drained. Most systems are drained at the valve, a few drained at the pump.

Do not require relief valve in new valve stack since all of the valves are in parallel.
