3rd Function for Bobcat CT225 Loader?

[stony]

Does anyone have a 3rd function control to utilize a grappler on there bobcat CT225?
Or, how could I improvise one?

I added the factory front hydraulic kit to mine. Basically it is a button that bypasses the curl function on the FEL so you have an extra hydraulic function to use for a grapple or snow blade. Would be pretty nice for your application so you dont' have to move your hand from the FEL controls. I have a buddy with a bobcat tractor and a grapple on the FEL and he plumbed one of his rear remotes to the front of the tractor using long hoses. It works but he has to grab a different lever to operate the grapple. Both would work for your application.

Thanks Roadhunter,
That's what I want to do, but the Bobcat vendors in my area can't track down the kit.
Was the kit you used for the ct225, or a larger tractor?

We offer a 3rd Function kit for that tractor. We sold one for a 335 about 10 minutes ago. Odd timing!

Travis,
Give me a call with your best price, then hopefully my banker (wife) gives the go-ahead.

Let me know if you have anymore questions stony. Here is the video of our 50" single lid Wicked Grapple in action on a CT122.
It would be great on your tractor!
