john deere 1050 joystick installation help!!!!

2 is going to the out
3 is going to the in coming front the bottom of the valve and
The other one is going to the pby coming from the top of the valve of the 3 point hitch

Does the power beyond have to be hooked up?

The way it has to work, if it is going to work properly, is that the power beyond line leaving the FEL valve has to be connected to the supply line for the 3 pt hitch.

The FEL valve block has to have a direct connection to the hydraulic fluid reservoir using the OUTLET or TANK port (different names used for the same port). Not going anywhere else first.

The output from the main hydraulic pump has to go directly to the IN port on the FEL valve.

Does that loader valve have its own pressure relief?
Some of the joy stick setups had a built in relief, and some where as low as 1500#

Not sure if this helps but I have the parts book

So it I put a tee in the IN port of the fel joystick and hook up the in and the (so called power beyond hose ) it should work right? And just plug the pby port on the fel joystick control valve

No it wont work. See my post #32

The hydraulic pressure will follow the branch of the Tee to the unused valve, be it the 3 pt or the FEL, and you will have no pressure for what you want to control. The open center unused valve will be allowing all flow to return to the reservoir and you have no flow and no pressure for what you are trying to control

This is an open center system not a closed center so you have to be careful of what you read from other posters, at least one of whom has a JD closed center system, which is a completely different one than what you have.

Ok I have to get a fitting tomorrow cause the parts house is closed and report back

Plse see the question I asked CROSS hydraulics and their answer.

POWER BEYOND AND IN LINES SWAPPED

My question:

If the IN port and POWER BEYOND port are reversed as a FEL valve is connected into an existing hydraulic circuit on a farm tractor, will it still operate properly?

Stated a different way, the high pressure line from the tractor’s only hydraulic pump is connected into the FEL’s POWER BEYOND port instead of the IN port will it still operate properly?

REPLY FROM CROSS HYDRAULICS

Good day! No, it will not operate properly. When the spool is shifted the Power Byd is blocked.

Thanks, Jeff

This is a pat of sorting out your hydraulic issues we need to double check.

Mr Dave thanks so much for your help I’m going to work on it this evening when I get out of work. I see what he is saying. So basically if I hook the pby line and the in together and put it in the in port on the joystick control valve and block of the exsisting pby port it will still have the same problem? Can I operate one or the other? Not very seldom will I have to use both at the same time. Right now the 3 point hitch is working cause I bypassed the fel but if I come out with a tee and put it in the in port it will not work? I’m sorry for all the questions I’m just trying to understand it. I had a John Deere 750 that I added a fel too and I got sick and tired of racking my head around it that I ended up cutting the main steel lines and putting a tee on the in and th return and it worked fine no problem. I don’t want to have to do that to this tractor. Was is the power beyond for any ways is it to add other valves to the tractor to operate something else?

Let us start by having you identify each steel line on your tractor in the area of your photos.

You need to be absolutely certain:

which one comes from the pump

which one goes directly to the transmission case as a drain

which one supplies the power to your 3 pt hitch

Once you have done this identification, I think we are close to a solution for you.

The power beyond feature is common in tractor hydraulic circuits. Some people with no knowledge use the out line from a FEL valve to feed a 3 pt hitch. or a top and tilt.

The weakness in doing an addition this way is the the FEL valve body is not strong enough to withstand 2,200 psi of hydraulic pressure on a port designed to just drain into the transmission case. The FEL valve can break leaving you with a significant expense and a tractor out of commission.

The power beyond capability keeps the high pressure hydraulic fluid in an area of the FEL valve which is strong enough to stand the high pressure.

Lets get things working and then deal with your valid questions.
