L6060 3rd Function Curl and Close Grapple Simultaneously

   / L6060 3rd Function Curl and Close Grapple Simultaneously #11  
I just hooked up my grapple to the L6060 and I can use all 3 functions at the same time but some functions are slower than others. My third function is a Kubota factory ordered system and it was installed by the dealer. My third function has a button to activate the third function valve and it stays on until I turn it off. There is a toggle on the loader controller that controls the open and close functions for the grapple.

As LD1 stated, "If you feather the raising and curling so you aren't using "all" the available flow....then there is some left to power the 3rd function". Under certain combinations of movements my third function will not operate until I slow down or stop one of the other movements.

USSharrylee's system( as pictured - post#7 ) look just like mine. Except - mine is on the inside of the loader arm. In the space between the hood and loader arm.

I believe you have a diverter valve rather than a true third function.

I have a dealer installed 3rd function valve on my L6060HSTC. The FEL raise, curl and grapple functions all will work at the same time but at a reduced rate.

I would check the plumbing on your valve to make sure it was installed properly.
