wild hydraulic ideas

[fireemann]

I have a kubota l2900 with fel. Im getting ready to add remotes to the tractor. I have found a 3 spool valve that will work with my power beyond on surplus center. Im wanting to put 2 sets of remotes on the rear and a set on my loader for a grapple.

I noticed on the surplus center they have 12 v actuated valves that I think would work better with my grapple.

I plan on tying into the hydraulic lines going to the loader for the remotes. Im trying to figure out how to do a 12 v valve at the same time. Has this been done and can it be done.

I haven't seen any 12v valves that have power beyond. Can I use a closed center 12 v valve and tee into the power beyond loop and then just run a return line off it?

Any help would be appreciated

As far as the grapple control, just get the solenoid valve that uses the curl circuit to operate the grapple. Something like this. Match up pump GPM to the valve flow GPM's.

Do you mean a two spool valve, with 2 sets of work ports.

Use the PB from your FEL valve to feed the remotes, and the PB out of the remote will feed the 3pt.

Only use open center valves.

If your tractor FEL valve has PB, just run the PB to the remote valve, or come off the hyd block if you have one.

Look at your parts list for all the ports available.
