Tree Spade Valve To Run 6 Functions

[Old Pipe Welder D]

Thanks for the help JJ
Is there no 4 station sub plate, or is this just a better way to install this setup?
I would assume that theres a inlet and outlet (return) on each subplate,
so from the 3 station subplate return would get plumbed into the inlet of the 2nd single subplate,
then from the return on the single plate it would go back to the main return on the auxiliary on the skid steer...a'm I on the right track?

You can connect both subplate in series . OUT port of the first subplate will connect to the IN port of the second subplate.

You could also put two solenoids on a two spool subplate X 2

Great now I understand how the valves work.
I see that they ship to Canada, thats a good thing, I will be ordering this valve set up soon.
Do I need a rod kit, and wire conections?
one more question that I have been trying to find out...what Is the difference between a tandom solenoid and a open center solenoid?
Your helping out alot JJ, much appreciated

TANDEM CENTER VALVES
Tandem center valves when in a neutral position by passes the flow of hydraulic oil to the return line. This is used to hold the cylinder/piston in position with no load on the pumps. When this system is the pump is running constantly to keep a ready supply of hydraulic oil, but as long as the cylinder/piston is not in operation the pump is working under no pressure or load. This system keeps wear and tear on the pump down to a minimum.

OPEN CENTER VALVES
Open center valves are the same as the tandem center, except that in the neutral position all lines are connected back to the reservoir. The primary use of this system is to prevent "shock" loading when the valve is placed in neutral. This takes pressure off the motor. This system is used in situations where the operating device needs to be moved by hand.

10-4 copy that, I think I may use the 2 station OC sub plates, I,m hopping theres a fitting that can conect the 2, instead of useing hoses...I,m sure there must be, anyway thank you so much, you were very helpfull.:thumbsup:

Old Pipe Welder D ,

I should have asked which tractor you were going to use for the tree spade .

Your JD6400 is a closed center, and will use the CC solenoid valve.

Hydraulics:
Type: closed-center pressure flow compensated (PFC)
Pressure: 2900 psi [200.0 bar]
Valves: 1 to 5
Total flow: 18.7 gpm [70.8 lpm]
25 gpm [94.6 lpm] (optional)

JJ,
Its going on a Case TR-270 Skid steer

Then those valves I posted are 10 GPM valve.

You will have lower the engine rpm down for a 10 GPM flow
