Loader Control Valve

[captfrank]

I have a 1640A loader on my Kubota B1750. I need an entirely new lever control. [I moved the one that was on it to my B7200 to replace a completely worn out one] I am also planning to put a third function on the 1640A (B1750) so that I can add a front grapple. Of course, Kubota prices for a new controller are out of sight.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a new controller that would incorporate a third function? Or a new controller and an add on third function?
Thanks for any input you could provide.

Nothing special needed and plenty of choices. Two quick examples:

Cheap joystick loader valve with float and a power beyond port. Pretty much plug and play on that loader:

Hydraulic Directional Control Valve for Tractor Loader w/ Joystick, 2 Spool (Single Float Spool Optional), 11 GPM

This Monoblock Hydraulic Directional Control Valve uses a Joystick, 2 Spools and has a capacity of 11 GPM. These valves are used to start and stop fluid flow into hydraulic cylinders or hydraulic motors.

Generic electric third function from same source. You would have to do some minor bracket fabrication to mount it on the loader tower next to the joystick

Universal Hydraulic Third Function Valve Kit w/ Joystick Handle, 25 GPM

Those are not recommendations just examples and about the least expensive going.

OK. I installed the summit hydraulic directional control with the joy stick. Loader works great, but 3 point hitch will not work unless I bypass the loader by disconnecting the input from the loader and only using the 3 point. Suggestions??

First thought.

Did you purchase and install the power beyond conversion sleeve? Sounds like its plumbed without it

Pictures also convey a lot of information.....

Called Anthony at Summitt and that apparently is the issue. Ordered the Power Beyond adaptor sleave. Expect that will solve it, I hope.

No sign of a PB sleeve in that port.
