Hi all,
I own a S650G and recently purchased a national front end loader. I attached the front end loader with little problems or effort. My next issue to resolve is how to hook up the hydraulics.
The tractor has the original 3 pt hitch control valve, but also has a second that piggybacks it. This control valve sits right on top of the 3 pt one and controls a snow plow. I'm told this is a closed center 2 way valve.
After studying the hydraulics on the tractor I discovered a bolt on the area where the delivery line goes into the bottom of that control valve. Could this bolt be removes and my supply line tap into there? I am new to hydraulics and still learning all the terminology, but I know I need to tap into the delivery line somehow. I tried making a loop with the snow plow valve but that isn't working well and I need to move that lever in unison with the FEL levers which is not the way it should work. I would like to keep all the existing parts intact as I use the plow in the winter often
Please if anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated!!
I can post pictures if needed.
