My snowblower uses the curl to angle the chute. Just have go to the second curl position to angle the one direction.

These guys don't have that second position to go to. So please try your blade without going to that second position and tell us how well it works.
Thanks Wolfman: I am sure what I will do is replace the two single action cylinders with one Dual Action Cylinder which is Meyer #M05817 if all of you agree that would work. The fabricator has done this on many tractors, just not a brand new Kubota sot that is why he was not aware of the changes. Guess I should of posted questions here before going forward with this. Thanks again to everyone. I will let you know how this ends up. Terry
[When I first started this swap, I installed quick connects on both lines feeding the tilt cyl's. I installed one male and one female (quick connect) on each hose.
Did the same for the steel lines going to the front of the loader. That way the lines are always hooked up the same.
That's when I discovered that the lines/hoses are very specific in orientation.
(more than just having the lever/bucket actions reversed). Due to the difference in piston area (full dia. on one side, reduced dia. on rod side) the hoses have to be plumbed correctly.
This morning it was just dumb luck, that I hooked up the DA cyl. correctly!
This afternoon, after the installation of the new DA cyl., and subsequent failure to operate, I remembered the swapping of the tilt cyl's.
Swapped the lines on the new DA, everything works fine.
Milo, this is comment you made on another thread; So if I replaced the two single action cylinders with one dual action cylinder that will solve my problem?????

That's what worked for me! From what I've read about your hook-up, I'd say it would work for you!
Over the weekend I was able to hoop up a dual action cylinder and as Milo said it did take care of the problem. Thanks all for you responses.

My Dad and I are trying to hook up the hydraulic single acting cylinders on our 6.5' fisher we fabricated to fit on a quick attach plate for our L3901 loader. I have read all the replies on this topic and am still somewhat lost. We were going to use the bucket cylinders to angle the blade but am thinking of hooking up a separate control valve and run 2 hydraulic lines to the front of the loader and control the blade angle. I am wondering if I can tap into the existing hydraulic bank and plumb in the new control valve. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Jamie.
