Hydraulic chute rotataor

[J_J]

The hyd motor only turns at a speed based on the GPM's applied.

You control the amount of fluid. Just provide the hyd motor a small amount of fluid.

Install a priority valve that will provide say 1 GPM, or whatever.

If you supply the motor I posted above, with 1 gal, it will turn about 120 rpm, and if you provide it with .5 gal, it will turn 60 rpm.

A 6.0 cu in hyd motor, using 1 gal will turn at 39 rpm, and .5 gal will turn it about 19 rpm.

If you go with larger displacement, the motor will run slower for a given input.

Need help, please. Hydraulic rotator on my Kubota BX2750d only turns one way. cylinder on the rotator has 4 inputs. Currently using top two. Is this correct?

Doesn't look like anyone replied. Yes, the hydraulic chute rotator only uses the top 2 inputs. The bottom 2 are the hydraulic pressure valve adjustments.

I have the same problem...chute only rotates 1 way. (on middle 2 (red/blue) on 4 way value. Strangely however, it rotates both ways when hoses are attached on top/bottom.

My Kubota dealer is looking into the problem. Did you get this problem fixed...if so, how?

The control lever has two positions to the right. The 1st is basically for a slow, controlled dump if using a bucket. Push harder to the right and you're chute will rotate (and your bucket will dump quickly).

Thanks; I found out about the far right detent (quick dump/chute rotate) after searching around this forum.

Strange that I could not find any documentation about this "feature" in the Kubota owners manual or the chute rotator installation manual.

I'm learning by the seat of my pants; no manuals whatsoever. Picked up a used BX2230 with 400 hrs on it this summer. MMM, factory hard cab with heat and a brand spanking new 2750D blower strapped to a pallet. Decided to mount the blower a couple months back to be sure I had all the parts and new the sequence of assembly before the Canadians began exporting cold air.

Pretty simple stuff, only a minor adjustment to the shaft on the subframe and I was set. I installed an electric chute deflector, aft facing spot light, and a 12v power supply in the cab. Everything's greased and ready to roll.

It better snow like a MoFo.

Sounds like a nice setup. I've learned a lot by searching/reading this forum, and I'm sure you will too. Good luck with your snow removal.
