I have a v blade for my skid steer it has two way angle cylinders. It has to cycle through both sides in order to get the position I want . Is there a valve I can plumb in and use toggle switches in cab to control each side seperate?

I have only seen 2 brands of this type of blade that uses 2 cylinders, 1 on each half of the blade, so you can turn it into an angle blade either moving snow to left or right side as desired or extend both cylinders to change it into a straight push blade. Both of these had an electric diverter valve built in so normal hydraulic function from the skid-loader moved 1 cylinder, then activating the diverter and using the skid-loader hydraulic function mover the other cylinder. Look close at your blade to see if it already has a diverter valve on it. If not adding 1 to split the flow to each cylinder should be fairly easy.

I designed various versions of valving to do this, as it is one of my many projects. I tried to keep it as simple as possible. I will try and find my sketches if you don't have any luck.

My little Steiner tractor has a V blade and I don't like the way they operate one side at a time only. For that one, I'm putting a pushbutton, light and timer circuit. I can press the button to toggle the valve on and off and the timer shuts it off, because probably the solenoid valve is not designed for continuous use. But this way, I can operate the Aux valve without simultaneously having to push the button.
