I'm trying to better understsnd my options when operating rear implements. In regards to the M62 whenever you remove the backhoe from the tractor, you have to push in 2 diverter valves. The M62 has 2 pumps is split among the different cylinders when the backhoe is attached. Additionally, I assume since you have to move the valves that the backhoe & hydraulics are designed for an open center control system.
Kubota offers a 3 valve remote system that is complete with 3 levers and mounta to the right rear of the operators chair. However, it ~$2500.00! Secondly I'm looking at a fence post driver that already has an operators station with control valves to do the various functions, so it seems kubotas valve would be redundant and all I need to do is only close 1 diverter valve and connect the fencepost driver to the other pump with the valve open, so long as the fencepost driver is an open center hydraulic system.
If I need the remote valve that's fine but I'm not sure it needed and the local dealer hasn't really been that convincing that I do... really don't want to spend this much on something I'll never use.
Thanks in advance...
