Man do I sounds like a NOOB...what I am :)

I know my B2620 has front float (press the control stick all the way forward)...but I wasnt aware of the other options. I took this from the Kubota B2620 manual

Is the B2620 able to do R1 and R2? Whats is practical uses of this?

What about the a, b & c direction? I always have only been able to do one at a time.

Let me know!

Yes and Yes

a,b,c is just both valves operating at the same time, and yes most joystick controlled valves will allow that to happen.

R1, R2 is called fast dump, and only newer valves allow that to happen.
It's for dumping material quickly.

There is 2 loader valves that were equipped on that tractor based on serial #'s ,but they both appear to have the same control functions. ;)

Mines a 2013 and I don't notice or feel any different detents there......but I can still modulate speed by feathering the lever.

I couldn't imagine having one of the other brands of tractors that can't lift and curl at the same time.

Is this unique to kubota? I mean for the smaller tractors (like John Deere, Yanmar, etc.?) can't lift and curl at the same time?
It's called you get what you pay for, You pay more for a Kubota to get these neat features! :D

I can't say that Wolfman.....my dealer sells both Kubota and JD and my Kubota was cheaper than green.

My 2004 B7500 has that "feature" built into the loader valve. What has always bothered me about it is that you have to go through the fast speed to get to the slow speed. That just seems totally backwards to me.
