I am about to add rear remotes to my LX2610 - I already have a 3rd function and backhoe. I have it basically figured out (thanks to Dan/Thisoldhokie !) and found some information.
The way the LX2610 is configured, PB off the loader valve goes to the third function, which then feeds the backhoe which returns to the 3pt to power that (or if backhoe is off you connect hoses and the outlet on the 3rd function goes to the 3pt). My manual remotes/valve will take power from the 3rd function, the PB off that valve will go to backhoe (or bypass if not using) which then goes to the 3pt.
My question is what to do with the tank line off of my remote. Everything I have seen say to tie it in to the tank line off the loader valve. The problem is on the LX2610 this looks hard to do, as the tank on the loader valve is hard piped to the tank and fairly inaccessible. I know I can get an auxilary plate that replaces an existing plate provides another PB and a tank line (it is also the spot for Kubot rear remote valves would go), but am trying to avoid that.
Am I ok just connecting the tank line from my rear remote valve into the hose that feeds the 3pt (which is the outlet of the backhoe when connected)? It sounds like that is not ideal. The 3rd function and backhoe should be OK, since that is how they are connected now, but worried it could cause issues to anything connected to remote valves like a top and tilt kit.
If I can't connect into the hose that feeds the 3pt, does anyone have advice into connecting into the tank line from the loader valve - it looks hard to do? If neither of these are good options, I may be looking at getting the conversion plate.
