Hydraulic SSQA idea

[Sportsman762]

I would go with the manual one. You have to get off the tractor to hook the hoses for the implement up anyhow. The process would be pretty simple.

1. Hook up and hydraulically attach implement
2. Get off and hook up lines and switch diverter
3. Use implement
4. Do in reverse to remove attachment.

Simple and easy. I would avoid an electrical diverter as it adds no advantage because your never going to unhook an implement using 3rd function without unhooking the lines. For most other applications I would recommend a electric diverter, just not this one.

Recently bought new but weathered miniclip that fits the ssqa fel. Has diverter valve remotely controlled to switch third function from clip to rotate. Weather had ruined the receiver and battery. Manufacturer OEM replacement was $400. Opted to replace with Amazon remote($21), Dewalt 20v battery mount and transformer ($23), LED switch and indicator ($14). Easy conversion you may consider or for other applications.

Remotes attached with industrial Velcro. Like not have additional wiring to FEL. Works well in brush and battery last a week of cutting easily.

$55 seems too cheap to last? Read the reviews?

Maybe. There isn't much to it, to be fair. I'm planning on getting one of those eventually. The idea is to add another set of remotes on the cheap side.

This valve is the same exact one as the Badestnost ones, which get rebranded to Summit in the US, along with other names. In this case, it's not even branded at all I believe.

All for a good deal. Specs and quality control does vary. Appreciate your review how this works.

I have 2 of these cheaper European supplied diverters like posted, I haven't been very impressed. As expected, internal leak down is a bit more then I like, but the external leaks are getting annoying.
