110 TLB Box Blade Operation?

[two_bit_score]

Hello fellows, first post here. I will thank you for the information that I am looking for now because I am certain I will get it from here. I have searched the Internet for the last two days and called several dealers but no one can give me a definite answer.

I am looking to buy a 110 but before I do I must know weather or not a fully, remotely controlled box blade can be fitted to it.

My understanding is a full remote controlled box blade has three separate functions. What I would like to know is: are these functions handled by the same system that controls the backhoe or are separate auxiliary remotes required for this. Thanks again!

I've never taken the backhoe off my 110 so I can't answer from personal knowledge. However, I am aware of several 110's with top and tilt that the owners used on construction sites bought with the intent of being used primarily with box blades.

My 110 is set up for a box blade with hydraulic rippers, hydraulic top link and side link. I have the 7 function backhoe with boom mounted aux. flat faced couplers. The optional hydraulics have a 3 section diverter so you have three front and three rear circuits.

I recommend you find a 110 that has all of these options including the three point top and tilt hitch.

You'll need what I call a 3 section rear remote hydraulic system. It's a common enough addition to any tractor....but can be pricey.
I added an extra two lever, two section rear remote to our 1958 JD530 2 cylinder tractor 25 years ago and it cost over $1200 back then. But putting it on is just a matter of bolting parts together.
Just priced the same unit for our Kubota M59 - a similar size machine to the JD110 - and was told it would cost about $2500 parts and $500 labor using all OEM parts.
luck, rScotty

Everything depends on the 110. As a option for the tractor you can get 3 rear SCV's. If your 110 has that you most certainty can add that box blade. If it does not have that i believe you can NOT add it very easily and it would be a lot of $. Obviously you have to have the 3 point hitch kit as well for this to work.

Some helpful information here, thank you all.

I can see that I want at least two control circuits for the rear, one for a lift link and one for
the top link, a third for ripper control might be in the works as well. I have only operated a manually adjusted box blade. Would you all agree that the ripper controll is the least valuable of the three?

I will look at the cost and packaging for the third circuit when/if the time comes.
