Yanmar 1700D adding rear remotes

[bunick]

As long as he had a open center valve he shouldn't have any trouble. Right? I would use a couple of theseYanmar Tractor Parts: HYDRAULIC ADAPTER - ADD A LOADER / LOG SPLITTER as to cutting the lines and using compression fittings. Just my 2 cents. This is a photo of a valve I grabbed off the internet. Doesn't help much in showing how to connect it.

Well thanks for the pictures. The valve on the tractor would be great, but I don't really want to run the splitter from the tractor. I am going to just plumb in a shutoff valve in an H configuration. All i should need is the 2 fittings from hoye. And a warning sign hanging from the shutoff valve!

I'm slow and don't quite understand your H configuration. Maybe a sketch?

Basically 2 tees with the shutoff valve in the middle. one side of the h is the remotes, to & from the pump is the other side of the h. When nothing is plugged in the remotes, the valve is opened. When anything is plugged into the remotes the valve is closed. I will take pictures of the hole shootin match as I go thru it.

I see, Your valve is already at the splitter . You just want 2 lines to terminate at the rear of the tractor. Is this correct ? If so, run the 2 lines back and add 2 quick connects . Then, just add a loop to tie the 2 lines that you add together when you aren't using the splitter. If you use valves, they will have to be able to withstand somewhere around 3000 PSI.


Others may have a different idea

Yep, thats it. I can access some of the items here at work.

I added a hydraulic top link and plumbed it from the block under the seat. The fittings that go into the block are British pipe thread. On The right side of the block there is a 1/4" plug that needs to be install into the block.

Well I would rather connect to the block than cutting the steel line that goes to it. Do you have any pictures of the in & out connection? Thanks

I may be wrong but I don't think your 1700 has that option. Here is a picture of my 2002d and I believe the 1602 is very similar. The hose that loops around there is the two openings. the plug goes in the left hand side.
