Snow plow help

[diesel97]

I am in the process of adding a snow plow to my 2000 John deere 790.I bought a 7 ft fisher plow and used it and the a frame and made my own mount.:cool2:My original intention was too use the dump curl circuit for the left /right cylinders on the plow.After some reading im understanding that it is not a good idea to do that and add a diverter of some sort.Im so confused on how to do this or what parts I would need.I looked at surplus center but don't know what to order because eventually next year im am gonna build a grapple for my bucket also and want to make sure whatever I plumb in is gonna work for both.Can someone please explain tp me how to do it in a simple way?Thanks so much.

I think you just need a third function kit.

I was looking at this valve but unsure if it would work. 12 VDC 13.2 GPM SAE 8 DOUBLE SELECTOR VALVE

Don't forget the cushion valve

1/2 NPT 30 GPM 1500-3000 PSI HYD CUSHION VALVE

The fisher control valve has it built-in but if you are using your tractor you'll need to add one.....3000psi is best

This is how you hook it up, and it should work with your grapple.

Default mode or no voltage is curl, and when you apply voltage, the solenoid will shift ports.

So basically all I would need to the double selector valve ,cushion valve mentioned above along with some sort of controller or switch?ofcourse along with the hoses and fittings.And I connect to the dump curl quick disconnects for my loader?

If you have a BH on your machine you could use those lines with a kit from there to the FEL.Then use the diverter in the cab that directs flow direction. Kit is $350

When I had my JD I did what you did and hooked the angles to the curl. I never did anything else or added anything else and it worked fine. It may be the way to go until you have your grapple ready to go, at least you can clear snow for now.
