    Cool, thanks! ;) Take some pics of the business end of that cutter as well, I and I am sure other would like to see it in action!

    Tapping into hydraulics to operate a Sabre Samuri cutter

    Red, it looks like you have it figured out. No worries about blocking off the flow to the block/rockshaft-that should not be a problem. Might want to get a IR type temp gun and monitor the new valve to make sure nothing is overheating, about 100* or so above ambient temperature should be...

    Tapping into hydraulics to operate a Sabre Samuri cutter

    Don, the main problem with using the valves to redirect the PB flow thru the Sabre valve could be flow or GPM, do you know what it and your tractor is rated for? If not what size are the line and ports/fittings? Say your machine is rated at 10gpm, but the valve is on,y rated for 5gpm, then you...

    Tapping into hydraulics to operate a Sabre Samuri cutter

    Red, to be clear, it doesn't "run" the 3PH, but it does "feed" fluid to the valve (rockshaft) that operates it. Generally, the flow from the pump is like this: -OUT of the pump to the IN or P of the FEL valve -PB from the FEL valve to IN of the rockshaft, or actually the "block" you have on...

    Tapping into hydraulics to operate a Sabre Samuri cutter

    Red, Welcome to OTT No, you cannot Tee into high pressure hydraulic lines, all new valves must be added in series. How many lines does you FEL valve have connected, 6 or 7? Here is a general schematic to ponder: http://www.baumhydraulics.com/files/infobuild/basic_hydraulic.pdf

    Added 3rd function with Log Splitter valve

    So you Tee'd the Power Beyond line? Generally, all valves in OC (open center) systems need to be added in series and by Tee'ing that adds it in parallel. You maybe find you do have reduced capabilities with this setup since the fluid will want to take the path of least resistance and that will...

    New life for old NiCad batteries?

    I have tried it on a few tool packs, the "magic" results where short-lived for me. NiCads have a limited lifetime, no getting around that.

    b3200 fel lifting

    You should not have to shim the PRV on a brand new machine IMHO, make the dealer test the pressure and adjust it to the high end of the factory specs. Below is a picture of my gauge setup, and here is a quick video I shot of testing the pressure...
