M7060 Hydraulics

[justinowens]

Hi There

I have a new Kubota M7060 with two pairs of remote hydraulic valves. One set are double acting with detents and the other set is single or double depending on the setting.

I have a log splitter and a post driver, both have their own external hydraulic valve chests so that they can be controlled outside the tractor.
I want the tractor to pump oil all the time to this valve chest however the control lever for the double acting valves with detents in the tractor keeps resetting to the central position and turning off the flow. I can tie the lever in position and this works but I don't want to damage the tractor hydraulics.
Any ideas?

Thanks
Justin

As long as the post driver or splitter hoses are attached to tractor breakaways then no damage should be done to tractor hyd system when tying lever to create flow as long as lever is moved in the correct direction to send pressure oil into ""in port of attached valve"".
