JD 790 Power Beyond Kit

[200%Dave]

I volunteer at a state park that has a JD790. We're attempting to install a BM18046 Power Beyond Kit on it. The instructions are wonderfully vague on where and how to attach it into the Hydraulic system on the tractor. Has anyone had experience on installing this kit ? Any Pictures ?

Thanks,

I don't recall a build thread on this installation as so to provide pics.

If someone don't pipe up with some, I'll go take some of the factory install on mine.

I take it that the tractor does NOT have a FEL???

Take a look at this post from 2008 about the JD 790 PB stuff.

JJ, did you read that thread ?

Yes? Some of it was about PB and other valves. Why?

 

[Willl]

Some of it was about PB

I must of missed it.

I'll go take some of the factory install on mine.

Just went out with camera, but unless I remove some panels, ain't no way I could get pics of the connection block area.

Stole these from my tech manual. Maybe they'll help.

The tractor has an FEL. We are attempting to install a small 3-point backhoe attachment. Running the Hydraulic lines, setting up the quick disconnects, etc. hasn't been a problem. Our mechanic is hung up trying to figure out where to connect the hydraulic lines to the hydraulic system on the tractor.

Thanks,
