S650-G open or closed center

Put remots on ports (under seat), but the log splitter (splitter is open center) would not move at all when plugged in.

Also, what does "Lock-Tilt-Plow" mean.

Thanks

open center

Open Center = Good News. Thanks.

Any ideas how to get action out of the remotes (for the log splitter) instead of the three point arms.

You either need to plumb the valve in series with the remotes or if it is plumbed in parrallel, you need a valve to shut off the flow to the 3 point.

If the hydraulic switch is in "Lock" and the three point arms are fully lifted, the remote are activated.

Using the valve on the splitter the cylinder can be extended but not retracted.

When the splitter lines going into the remotes are switched there is no change in the operation. Still extension, but no retraction. I had expected a reversing.

both lines were a pressurized supply. Using only one and returning fluid to the resivour via the filler plug works.

The two pressurized supplies are not identical, but one does work properly with the three point arms.
