My M7060 purchase and usage thread

[lpigott]

A SCV valve?? Not sure I understand what keeps the rear remote valve in operation? You have to hold the lever or "strap" it into pressure position? Thanks for your patience!!!!

No problem ask all you wish . Yes a standard valve. Since it is unlike a cylinder that will pressure up and then the valve kicks out, it stays locked in position, mostly. By that I mean is stays in position really good after running about 5 mins, with light usage. I assume this is because the fluid gets hotter and the pressure will not build up upstream of the motor as quick and make the level kick out. Once it is hot the only time it kicks out is if you get into something bigger than you should. I may end up adding something to hold the lever in later since sometimes it is slightly annoying if it kicks out when you don't want it too. It kicks out before its good and hot if you move the boom on the loader too quickly too, but you can move it as needed once good and warmed up. We will see, for now I am going to leave it and use it as kinda of a slip clutch if you will, lol. It is a learning curve learning to use it as with any new attachment but the more I have used it the more impressed I am with it and the operator skill is coming along nicely too. Thus far I am very pleased with the purchase.

Interesting, any chance you could post a video of it in use?

Only a crappy one I made with my cell phone. I will break out my action cam and mount it once I get more time. That may be a while though as I have to head off to real work for a month early next week.

There is a tubing return line from the loader that had a tee fitting that was capped under the RH side of cab.

I've posted many crappy videos on TBN, don't worry about that part!!!!

Where are some of these vids and how do I find? I doubt they are "crappy".
Are there any of your Ford 3910 or Kubota M9540? Those are both keepers forever.
Any vids of the mods to the Kubota?

Don't get me started my friend.... Thanks for the compliments, I'll not sell either tractor. I'll dig some up for you and post them in the video section.

In the meantime here's a short one in which you can hear the Kubota running in the first part. Subjects are my pet "Kitties".

Sorry to the OP for the distraction, but it's an example of crappy quality video.

Oops, yes, excuse me for getting off task here.

My 3rd function is not installed yet, it was late showing up so they will install it later. Since I had the single point loader attachment added we moved the original hose mount plate to the front of the loader so we could connect the Lane Shark and 3rd function hoses in separate points. Lane Shark does not recommend the 3rd function be used to run it since the instant on and instant off is not good on the motor. Mine has the pressure hose coming from one of the rear remotes and the return line goes directly to the sump. This allows slow run up and the it can coast to stop. Also their standard motor is 10 GPM but mine was upped to a 15 GPM motor since I have higher flow rates.

So initial experience is that moving the loader frame (curl or lift) does cut off flow to the cutter BUT it is not "sudden on and sudden off" right ? Still trying to figure out why my own (also ran from a remote) did do the sudden on and sudden off. Possibly the kind of control valve being used on the remotes ??

Maybe different GPM flow rate between the two tractors?? Just guessing.....
