Hydraulic Splitter from Tractor Remote

[Dead Horse]

I use either the power beyond circuit or bungee the valve controlled remotes. either way works just fine and will not stress the hyd pump or valves.

Power beyond is nice, just be sure to fix the location of the lift before you try to use your FEL.

I generally now just go with the bungee as it means less dicking around with the connections, chipper OR splitter!

For my JD 3520, the dealer provided a small metal chain with hooks at either end that can be placed between the PTO selection lever and the 3rd SCV handle or, to reverse the oil flow, between the sliding limiter of the rear PTO and the handle. I haven't lost it yet and it works just like your bungee. Pity there doesn't seem to be any possibility of a detente system.

JJ, I would have to ask dozens more questions if I went your route with the links you provided. And I dont want to wear out my welcome on your hydraulic knowledge on this thing. I have a whole nother project in mind for you if you'll remember back a bit concerning my need for building a hydraulic powered mower for my vineyard alleys.

Any way, I was curious about tying that valve off and feel comfortable just using the bungee.

Tks

Could you perhaps add a detent to your remote valve. They also make a valve that detents in both directions. If you used cables for the remotes, you could add a cable lock.

My "primitive" Chinese tarctor with standard rear remotes are controled with an open center valve with detents both ways. I assumed they would all be setup this way. Just plug in your hoses and control from there. Easy for a logsplitter or backhoe hookup. No bungees needed
