Then why not hook up the bucket manually too, when youre out of your seat anyway ?

Its been 20 years since i built my QA, i have the 4th function on the valve block (from an old feed mixer) but to me it turned out it just isnt worth it.


Once the grapple comes off and you are now just switching attachments that don't require the 3rd function, you no longer need to leave your seat to do anything up front. The hydraulic QA will do everything for you, so you can swap through all those attachments from your seat.

Exactly, I switch between forks and bucket regularly. Also comes in very handy when loading/ unloading the ssqa implements on and off the trailer when I need to transport or move them around.

You don't need an electric to go on the loader.

You leave the diverter in the ssqa position and use your 3rd function to actuate the ssqa.

If you mount an implement such as a grapple, you would mount it, get off the tractor, hook up your hydraulics hoses, then switch the diverter to the quick couplers for the implement and leave it in that position until you are ready to remove it.

Then, you would disconnect the hoses, switch the diverter back to the ssqa, and detach the implement from the seat.

No need to get off to switch the diverter, unless you have to hook up hoses, which means you'll be off the tractor anyways.

Only reason to run a second set of lines to the front is if you want to be able to run 2 cylinders on an implement from the 3rd function from the seat.
Exactly my thoughts.
