Hi there,
Looking for some advice for hooking up and old Shaver HD10 post driver to a L3130.
This post driver has only one hydraulic valve, to actuate the post driver. (Rest is manual.)
My understanding is these drivers need their output low pressure line to go directly to the tank, as it's it's just a dump at that point. The weight of the ram and springs do the work, not the hydraulics. (hence the gland or piston in the cylinder is just a star.. it doesn't really seal anything, for long)
My tractor has a power beyond hose and return installed from the FEL circuit and returns back to the block under the step.
This is what was installed: https://www.tractorinnovations.com/powerbeyond
I think the return is really feeding the 3 point, as it's next in line. The power beyond setup I have goes from the FEL, to the rear of the tractor (when not used, in a loop connected to itself and then back to the block to feed the 3 point.
My intention was to install a 1-spool valve with a detent (to keep the valve open when in use) that hooks into my rear power beyond couplers. The incoming rear power beyond hose (via a coupler) would go to the valve.
Hooking up this remote valve.. not sure if I have to tee the tank link in the system someplace for the valve and then add another power beyond plug on the value so it can feed 3 point hitch back at the block.
The output of the valve would use ONE of the implement "out" ports and hook that into the post driver's valve.
I would also ensure the Shaver's HD10 valve was using an open-center plug. (hopefully I can do that and find one for my valve, it looks old. )
The HD10's big 1" output hose would use an adapter to dump into my threaded fill plug.
Will this setup work? do I need to be concerned about dead-heading my open center pump with this arrangement? Bonus question, does anyone know if an open center plug can be added to this Gresen valve on the HD10 driver?
Thanks!
