Rear Hydraulics & Must haves

[Ductape]

If money isn't an object, get a minimum of two remotes. Having hydraulics at the back opens up a whole new world of tractoring possibilities.

If you purchase a FEL with the tractor you will have the hydraulics needed for a front mount blower and chute rotation. From that there are several ways you can 'tap into it' for other remotes if so desired as a DYI project if you don't want the dealer installed setup- powerbeyond, electric solenoid etc. Kenny will tell you what to do.

I just bought an MF1529 and I had them install the twin rear remotes at the deaership before I took delivery because I had purchased a used rear mount snowblower privately and it had the hydraulic chute deflector and the hydraulic chute rotator and you never know what you might need them for down the road. If you are going to have a rear remote installed, you might as well go with two because it does not cost a lot more, the labour cost is roughly the same because you have to drain the hydraulics whether it's one or two you're installing. Just my opinion.

I think the general concensus is if it can be afforded go for 3 rear remotes...

Top & Tilt will use two and if you have an implement that has a power assisted function you will need a spool to control it...

Always better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it...
