I know there have been tons of posts on adding remotes but I would like someone to look over what I have planned for my B7500 and tell me if it's the best way to accomplish adding an auxiliary remote valve to control a hydraulic top link and also have a set of hydraulic ports available to power a 3-point log splitter. I hope all of the drawings are correct as I used what others have posted as my starting point
The 1st pic is the way is currently set up with pressure coming from the pump to the BLOCK on the side of the engine, a hose connected to the front port to the IN on the loader valve, the hose from the OUT goes to the return on the side of the tranny and the PBY goes back the rear port of the BLOCK and on to the 3-Point system.
The 2nd pic shows how I plan on adding a TopLinkValve going from the Loader Valve PBY port to the IN of the TL valve, the OUT, T-ing into the Return Line and the PBY being re-directed back to the block to continue onto the 3-Point. I already own a CROSS single open spool valve that has a PBY port but the sleeve needs to be added.
The 3rd pic shows where I plan on adding a set of quick connects to the return circuit that will be plumbed to the Log Splitter.
The 4th pic is showing the Log Splitter inserted into the return circuit of the TL valve.
The reason I designed it like this is I already own the TL valve and do not want to purchase a 2 spool valve, I also don't like the idea of having a bungee holding a valve open for the splitter to work. I do realize that the tractor could NEVER be started or operated without either the Remote QCs connected together or being hooked to the
