I have a M110X with LA 1953 loader. I want to put on a different bucket with grapple fork. I have two hydraulic outlets in back. Can I use one of those outlets to run the grapple or will that interfere with the joystick operation using tilt or lift?

Yes you can use rear scv to control grapple without adversely affecting operation of JS.

Only bad thing about using a rear remote for the grapple is you only have one hand to work 2 controls. If you plan on using the grapple a lot it may be worth the extra money to add a 3rd function control to your joystick. That way you can work the loader and grapple at the same time.

I made a grapple,one handed on two controls isnt all that difficult.more getting the brain to realize where it is was the issue.

If its out of necessity you will find a way to make it work.

Hello,

The other simple version of doubling your DA valve functions would be to add a 6/2 solenoid divider on the loader and an electric switch on the joy stick to alternate between tilt and grapple on your joy stick, you would have to route a cable only from the joy stick to the front of the front loader, might be easier and not more expensive then 2 flexibles
