X734 where is hydraulic diverter valve?

[Deadman]

I just bought a new JD X734 and I removed my mow deck and put the front quick hitch on it with my broom for sweeping snow and the left to right action on the hydraulic function has a 5 second delay in it. I'm assuming it needs a diverter valve turned somewhere, but I have no clue where said diverter valve is located. Its not where the diverter valve on my X475 is.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks

Deadman that should be located down behind the SCV valve, on the back side from where
the quick couplers are. you should see a small black wheel that you turn and shut off
for winter use, and open back up for summer/mower deck use.
if you had the x475, it uses the same diverter, you know where it should be..
if it's not there, it may have never been installed when the hitch was installed,
contact your selling party/dealer/etc...

Thank you!

I think it was optional equipment, not standard equipment. Well, it was for my older x495

It comes standard with the front hitch angling kit but not with the tractor itself.

That's a good thing. I cussed the 5 second delay for a long time until I found out I could buy a diverter valve to fix the problem.

That makes perfect sense. I bought that X734 outright and kept the quick hitch to reuse from my old X475, so the diverter stayed with the X475. I'll get a new one and get it on.

Thanks guys!
