Snowblower chute hydraulic motor installation

[mayohill]

Just installed a Charr-lynn 1.21 cu. in. hydraulic motor for the rotation of the discharge chute on my snowblower. I have a B7610 tractor and a B2781A blower.
After hooking up everything, I started the engine and tried to rotate the chute. It rotated in one direction but not the other. I swapped the quick disconnects and it rotated in the other direction but again not the other. It always rotates with the control lever to the left and will not rotate with the control lever to the right. It seems like the control valve is not allowing oil to flow in both rotational directions. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Push the lever all the way to the right, there is another position.

If you do search for the term "regen" you'll find lots of reading on this.

Thought the same thing when I hooked up new blower. Also tried swapping lines. Issue was not pushing hard enough. Once you try it you'll see the difference.

are you sure the hoses are connected properly, particularly the quick connects? i had an issue where my function was only working in one direction (and very slowly) and not the other. It ended up being the quick connects on the hoses felt like they were seated, but were wrong. Once I changed them out everything was ok

post some pictures of your set up, i would love to see this.

Thank for the"Regen" info. I'm sure that the problem lies in the fact that my tractor is a 2005 model and most probably has a 3 way valve. I guess that I either return to my electric mod or look into purchasing a 4way valve. Thanks to everyone for the help.

I have a bx1500 with the same problem,How much are the 4 way valves, and where's a good place to get one

Look at this post to see how I solved this problem without buying the 4 way valve.https://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34349&highlight=snow+blower&page=3
Look at #24 for a description.

I have a 2001 BX2200 and ran into the regen issue. Took years to find out what it was. The price of the 4-way valve was prohibitive. There really isn't a lot of room to add an extra mechanical valve on the BX, so... I went to Surplus Center and bought the solenoid valve and hooked it up after the loader valve. Works like a charm.
