    Thanks for the help guys. I checked and nothing came through to the email I used. No spam or junk caught either unless the OTT site is "Whats App". I did have 2 junk emails from them. There must be something wrong in the email address I gave. I will re-enter my email address in my User CP. If...

    BX1850 Hydraulic Help Needed

    Thanks RCW, The chute rotation is what got me into this mess. My Wife and I are both used to the manual rotation of our walk behind snowblower but there is no nice way into the cab that came with the tractor for the manual rotation. I would have to break out a window to get the shaft into the...

    BX1850 Hydraulic Help Needed

    RCW - Sorry for the slow reply. I'm signed up for instant notification but I am not receiving any notice. I just happened to check the thread tonight. I did a little exploring with the FEL controls this weekend. Come to find out It not only has a float detent on the lift control valve it also...

    BX1850 Hydraulic Help Needed

    Thanks RCW, Now you got me thinking about the FEL controls and if I do have a float mode on there or not. I haven't found it yet but then again I wasn't looking for it. I will have to do a little exploring next time I play tractor. I didn't find it when I was trying to do a little back drag...

    BX1850 Hydraulic Help Needed

    Thanks for the advice ShaunRH. Grouse Feathers had the same thoughts. He had the same caveat about only using the 3rd function for the snowblower. I realize how much safer and less expensive the electric actuators are compared to hydraulics. And I know I am taking the harder path to get to a...

    BX1850 Hydraulic Help Needed

    Thanks for helping me think this through RCW. Sorry for the long post but I'm still in the planning stages for the hydraulic work and still figuring it all out. The FEL controls I want to be for the chute control to make operation as natural as possible. Our area is very uneven and we...

    BX1850 Hydraulic Help Needed

    Thanks for the input Grouse Feathers. I've thought about using electrical linear actuators for the chute deflection angle but I decided to go hydraulic with quick disconnects on the tractor. I am hopeful to use the extra hydraulic function next Spring for a small grapple. If I use the linear...

    BX1850 Hydraulic Help Needed

    Thanks for the words of caution ShaunRH. Always better to be safe than sorry. Sorry if I misled you into believing I was a total noob. I have had a tractor for years now. It is an old Ford 3400 gasser 38hp TLB. It has similar hydraulic pressures but hoses much larger and none of these banjo...

    BX1850 Hydraulic Help Needed

    Hi All, I need help with some add-on hydraulics. I’m looking into putting a 3rd function electric over hydraulic valve onto my BX1850 for our BX2750C front mount snow blower attachment. The plan is to make all the controls hydraulic. The L/R U/D controls from the FEL valve will be for chute...
