what do you mean? a seperate one, and not the one already in the tractor??? we wanted to be able to run front end loader, rear hydraulics, and 3 point hitch at the same time, or at least the front end loader and rear hydros... or front end loader and 3 point hitch u know?....the way it is now, we can only run one thing at once, and to change, we have to shut the tractor off, and switch the pressure valve.....we have had some people say, with this model tractor u have to have a seperate resovoir and hydraulic pump etc to be able to run more than one thing at once, and we are trying to find out if thats true.......

Ever who told you that was right. If you use the front end loader the 3 point hitch and the rear hydraulics will not work. If I am using the cutaways and want to move a small tree I have the lift the cutaways . them use the front end loader.

Now I don't have to shut my tractor off . All I have to do is move the lever beside the seat to the front or to the back.

You can run the frontend loader and rear hydrolics at the same time but not the 3 point hitch. I come of the switching valve with hoses with quick connects then hook the out to the in on the loader, then connect the out on the loader to the in on the rear control valve. Then connect the out on the control valve to the in on the switching valve. i use quick connects on all lines so if i take the loader off I can connect to the rear control valve.
