question about hydraulic rear bladeswith 3 rear remotes

BGigHarbor · Aug 28, 2013

Say a person had a tractor with topntilt and 3 rear remotes.

Say they were considering buying a LP RBT3584 which is a rear angle blade that can have manual or hydraulic angle, tilt, or offset.

Seems likely the hydraulic angle is a no brainer.

How best to put the other two remotes to work? Offset seems it would be handy but it would take away top or tilt.

And is tilt done best on the blade or through the 3pt tilt?

Crimenies, is this a case for 4 rear remotes?

All hypothetical of course.

Yes 4 remotes, "T&T", offset and angle on the blade. Just get the ratchet for tilting the blade. You want the tilt on the hitch so that you have that capacity for your other implements. Very very seldom do you need to tilt more that what the hitch will do, and if you do, then you manually tilt with the ratchet on the rear blade and fine tune that tilt with the 3pt hitch tilt.

I just finished a remote setup for a guy that has an M7040. He needed 6 total rear remotes for his tractor. Not only did he get my "T&T" set, but with his Land Pride blade he got all 3 functions hydraulically operated along with hydraulic operated gauge wheels. So he used 2 OEM valves for the "T&T" and the 3rd unit goes through a 3 diverter valve bank to end up with the 4 sets of outlets that he needs to operate his rear blade.
