Loader Valve / Curl function diagnosis

[ch1ch2]

You can not cut off the ends if you had to ask.
This is shop work and a lot of shops will not work on used hoses.
You do not want the contaminates in your hydraulic lines.
Just buy adapters to convert your hose fitting to the part you want to attach to.

Thanks guys. I'm going to bring a hard line to the local hydraulic shop so he can determine what size fittings. He said he would help me get the job done right

Update. My loader now works. I bought this valve from Surplus Center.2 SPOOL COMPACT 10 GPM JOYSTICK CONTROL VALVE

I took my tractor to the local hydraulic shop. He allowed me to work with him. I removed the wheel, fender, right side backhoe subframe, and right hand floor board to expose the lines and valve which is located behind the wheel on the side of the transmission housing.

We mounted the new valve in the same location. We removed the 4 loader hardlines and he made hoses to replace them up to the quick disconnects at the loader frame.

He cut the supply hardline and put in a compression fitting and short hose. At the same time I replaced all 4 quick disconnects.

Today my son in law helped me put all the parts back on and we brought it home.

I'm glad I have my loader back.

One thing I still need to do is switch which spools the 2 functions are on. The float is on the bucket instead of the boom.

If I switch the hoses the joy stick will work wrong than normal. Meaning forward and back will govern the curl and left and right will operate the boom up and down.

So question. Can I just switch the cans on the loader to switch float and regen?

You still should be able to switch hoses around to get what you want. I just looked the instruction and I see what you mean, did you see how to change it.

The instructions include a sheet to change the joy stick from "A" to "A1". Does that change the orientation of the joy stick?

 

[Leejohn]

Just from left side outlets to right side outlets. Is your valve mounted sideway or flat?

 

[GPintheMitten]

It is sideways against the transmission with the working ports to the right.

I've been studying the instructions for A to A1. I think that's what I need to do. That and switch the hoses.

 

[GPintheMitten]

Does that seem right to you?

 

[Leejohn]

Yes the valve comes set for the work port going out to the left. Here thelink that I seen it at.

Ok. Thanks. Earlier when we were doing all this work I didn't take the time to figure out what they were talking about on the joystick A vs A1 configuration.

I'll change it and report back.
