I was cleaning my shop, this is a once in life time event of course, and found an electric over hydraulic valve. I forgot I had it and now I can buy the grapple I want and save a ton of money on a push button controller. Now I need a switch or grip for the FEL lever.

This is all related to what? Never mind I see grapple, but do you know how to wire it up.

Is this a six port valve, like the one used as a diverter to switch between the curl circuit and grapple circuit, with a thumb switch on the joystick lever?

Is the wiring schematic on the side of the valve?

It is a single open center valve only no other parts. It came on a truck I bought that used to have a lift gate. The gate was removed but they left the valve on the truck. I took it off 6 years ago and put it on a shelf. I can use it with the power beyond for my grapple which I do not yet own.

I still need a switch or a grip with a switch in it, and some hoses.

This will be my next post asking where I can find a grip with a 12v switch to control the grapple.
