REMOTE HYDRAULIC
CONTROL SYSTEM
The hydraulic auxiliary control valves can be installed
with up to 5 segments.
1. Remote control valve
There are 3 types of remote valves available for these
models.
• Double acting valve with detents and self-canceling:
This valve may be placed in the detent mode. The
lever will stay in this position until the pressure
reaches a predetermined level or a cylinder
reaches the end of its stroke. Then it will
automatically return to neutral.
• Double acting valve with float position:
This valve may be placed in the float mode with the
control lever all the way forward. The cylinder is
free to extend or retract, letting an implement such
as a loader bucket follow the ground.
• Single or double acting valve:
This valve can be utilized as single or double acting
valve by adjusting the auxiliary control valve
selector knob located on the valve.
1. Turn the auxiliary control valve selector knob
clockwise all the way to utilize as single acting
valve.
2. Turn the auxiliary control valve selector knob
anticlockwise all the way to utilize as double
acting valve.
