Good afternoon and thanks for letting me join.
I'm having issues with what should have been a simple install of a third function valve and I'm hoping I'm overlooking something simple and y'all can help me out.
I'm using this valve from Summit Hydraulics:
https://summit-hydraulics.com/product/hydraulic-third-function-valve-kit-w-joystick-handle-for-tractor-loader-21-gpm/
And using this power beyond sleeve:
https://summit-hydraulics.com/product/power-beyond-adapter-sleeve-for-p80-z80-series-summit-monoblock-valves/
Some pictures of how I have it hooked up are attached.
My issue is that there is pressure going to both work lines on activation of one solenoid. The backhoe and FEL work fine.
I thought it may be an issue with pressure back feeding through the return line so I installed a check valve before the Tee. When I did that the grapple functioned if I bumped the switch, but it would lock up if held. I've tried taking the other valves out of sequence and only running pressure and return to the new valve and it still pressurized both work lines. I've actually had Summit send me a new valve as well. Same deal.
Please tell me I've missed or forgot something. I would really like to use my new grapple!
