Remote Control to Release Bucket

[hog]

Has anyone built a remote release for the quick attach bucket so you don't have to leave the tractor when changing attachments on the front end loader? If so I would like to look at some pictures. I think this could be done with an electric actuator. Any ideas?????

I have uses some payloaders that had some type of electric over hydraulic actuators to unhook and hook the bucket or whatever attachment being used. Last one I used was a brand new New Holland W80 that had it on.

Quite commonly done with a solenoid valve to divert bucket circuit oil to a latch operating cylinder on the QA device.

The other day I was at my local Kubota dealer, and they had a small Kubota front end loader with a skidsteer style QA bucket. It had a hydraulic cylinder to operate the QA locks, allowing you to change buckets/attachments without leaving the seat.

I believe that all of the Power-Tracs feature this as standard. But their QA is their own style, not standard...

OK, now we are getting lazy. Pretty soon we will want remotes so we can run the tractor while sitting inside watching TV. I wish I had a remote control to load up my 3PH when I change from blade to rake! Now, that's a PIA!!!
