I have a Ford 1710 4wd that has a joystick that used to control the front mount blower. I have installed a loader on the tractor and use the valve for that now. I am going to use the blower on the TPH and i want to use the hydraulic chute control on the blower. What is the easiest way to use the chute hydraulics other than disconnecting two of the hoses for the loader from the joystick. I would like to be able to use both the loader and blower without disconnecting them. Pics are attached of my current setup.

Perhaps you can use a selector/diverter valve like this.

Surplus Center - 12 VDC 13.2 GPM SAE 8 DOUBLE SELECTOR VALVE

Connect it into the curl circuit, and when complete, the default is curl, and when you flip the switch, the blower operates.

You will have to bungee the curl lever.

Another option is a 3ed function. A solenoid motor valve with DO3 subplate.

When you apply power to the solenoid valve, the blower operates.

If you operate the loader at the same time as the blower is running, you will take away the flow, or reduce the flow.

Muzzy.. you can use the valve JJ talks about, just plumb the valve into the curl hoses , put P1 and P2 on the joy stick curl cylinder valve side, put the C1 and C4 going to the curl cylinder. plumb the C2 and C3 to the blower cylinder. use a momentary push button switch to control the solenoid on the valve. press the switch and move the curl valve the blower will turn.. release it and the curl cylinder will move.. the plumbing diagram for the valve is on the site under the instructions tab Jim

Thanks for the replies. Should i remove the quick connects for the curl if i decide to do this? Where would u mount the valve? Sorry for the dumb questions but i dont know much about hydraulics.
