M8540 With 4plus Remotes In Rear

[Brandon1107]

Guys,

I have seen very few posts for 4 plus remotes on my tractor. I saw that Catman1 had 6 but I have not had any luck finding a write up. Could someone point me in the right direction. 3 factory remotes will be in place but I need at least one if not 3 more for rear blade.

Thanks

What type of blade are you running ?

Not to sound smart, but you do know that one remote valve actually has 2 outlets? So with three remotes you would have six outlets and could control three double acting cylinders. I can't recall ever seeing a tractor with 6 remotes, even 300-400hp articulated 4wd tractors generally only have 4-5 at most.

Vertical,
Yes I understand that I want at least 4 for top and three way blade.

I want the blade 3 way so I can use it on other tractors and I want top and tilt so I can tilt the blade 45 degrees on my tractor for ditching. That would need me realistically needing five remotes but I might as well have 6.

I have 3rd function dealer installed on the front but it is e/h and not very easy to fine tune. I also don't want to lose functionality on the front to make stuff on the rear work.

Thanks

Put a hydraulic solenoid on a couple of your current remotes to split them. It would work just switch from one circuit to the other and you would still use the regular valve to do the adjusting with. If It were me I would just disconnect the T-N-T when using a 3-function blade.

I'm pretty sure that his 3 extra remotes are electric diverter valves. For those of you that want to know why Catman has 6 rear remotes, 2 for "TnT", 3 for the 3 functions of the rear blade and the 6th one is for his hydraulic gauge wheels.
