All Allied by Farm King hydraulic valves are self-centering and return to neutral from all positions
except float. The float or detent spool is only to be used on the boom circuit. This position allows
the oil to freely flow through the valve so the lift cylinders can extend or retract. It can be engaged
by slightly pushing control beyond full lower. Float will allow for the loader to lower and rise as
the attachment follows the ground contours. To disengage float, slightly pull control back towards
the neutral position. The Allied by Farm King Remote Hydraulic Control can be locked in the neutral
position to minimize unintentional movement.
CAUTION
Lower and dump heavy loads slowly by feathering. Stop tractor
movement gradually. Never drop a loaded attachment and
“catch” hydraulically. Stopping with such downward momentum
may cause damage to the loader or tractor.
When handling heavy loads be sure to raise and lower the loader slowly while leveling the
attachment as required. Feathering can assist in accurately controlling operations by regulating oil
flow through cylinders.
A third function hydraulic control is available for grapple or other hydraulic applications. An
optional divertor valve is connected to the loader attachment spool and is operated via the Allied
by Farm King Remote Hydraulic Control momentary switch and simultaneously engaging the
bucket spool through dump or rollback.
Bucket
When loading a bucket, approach straight and
enter the pile with a level bucket parallel to the line
of motion.
Important: Attempting to turn while loading may
cause damage to the loader or tractor.
Work the controls to raise and rollback the bucket
simultaneously. The combined actions of lift and
bucket cylinders increases loading efficiency and
minimizes resistance to lift.
Note: On tractors with low hydraulic oil flows, both
functions may not be possible
