Series 3000 or 4000 FEL with front Aux Hydraulics

Tony H · Mar 19, 2016

Asking for a friend. Looking at a new JD. On the fence on 3000 vs 4000. But the question is. What kind of controls will come with the JD with a FEL that has Front Aux hydraulics? Separate Stick or just rocker switch on existing stick or ???

It will be a solenoid valve controlled from the joystick UP/DOWN buttons. It's called the 3rd SCV kit and the fittings are at the rear, there is a separate kit to extend them up to the loader.

Sounds like the 3rd SCV kit is intended for hydraulics to the 3pt hitch but then they add on to that for the front .

Rocker buttons on the existing FEL joystick... OK thanks

Ahh one more question about the 3rd SCV; Do they have a switch that will Hold the Up or Down position full time? In construction we, its called a Detent. You can push the 3rd SCV button Up and then lock it in that position so fluid runs continuous. In my case I Detent the front hydraulics to run my Logsplitter.

No constant flow detent on the any of the SCV's, it suggested to use the Power Beyond add on for things that require full time flow (backhoes and log splitters).

OH BOY! he's really going to have to spell out his intentions with the Machine and hope the Sales guy/gal is on his/her toes. I will pass this stuff along so he can, at minimum, mention these options to the Sales guy/gal.

I hope with the front hydraulics, the option come with ISO 16028 Flush Face connectors since most Skid Steer type attachments come that way and that's usually what you will be using front hydraulics for.
Thanks a bunch. Very helpful

I doubt it will come with flush face couplers, another thing to demand in the deal and have swapped when it comes in.

Just have to ask. For example the 110tlb comes with flush face aux couplers on the fel and the backhoe while the three rear outlets are ag couplers.

Yeah, A light weight version of the 110 is what he would like. BUT with a full enclosed Cab, AC/Heat. I have the JCB MIDI CX which is just like the 110. i.e. Construction tractor with Cat 1 Hitch and PTO. No ag connections in the rear of mine, but it does have a full Cab with AC. . I just need the hitch and PTO for mowing. The 110 was discontinued when I went shopping for mine.
Sounds like the Flush Face up front is a matter of simple negotiations.
Thanks again

I bought my 110 with a Laurin cab in 2005, been a good machine so far.
