Thanks all for the information I will show my friend, I too was wondering if the front valve would work, just not sure what you do with the loader lines- did not know you could run both at same time.
You can only run two control valves in series properly on an open center system if one of the control valves has power beyond capabilities. If your loader currently has one line going from the sump (probably in the frame of the loader) to the pump, another single line from the pump to the control valve and another single line from the control valve back to the sump, then it is currently configured for open center without power beyond. Some valves can be easily reconfigured between plain open center and open center with power beyond by replacing a plug that can be gotten from the valve manufacturer, but others cannot. If yours cannot be reconfigured, the only way to get both the loader and backhoe to work off of the front pump would be to replace the loader control valve with one that can be configured with power beyond.
Regarding the rear connections - I noticed on my Massey they have what looks to be 2 original female quick disconnects- however both the same size. Does it matter which goes to your Implements, I thought one should be feed and one return.
Thanks Again
If it is a single remote valve and it has two connections, then it is designed for a dual acting cylinder, so one line provides power to one side of the cylinder when you move the control handle in one direction, and the other provides power to the other side of the cylinder when you move the handle in the opposite direction. Whenever one side of the cylinder is getting fluid to push the ram in one direction the other line provides the path for the fluid from the other side of the cylinder to return through the control valve to the sump.
To power a 3 point backhoe that has its own control valve from a remote, you would connect the lines form the remote valve to the "power" and "return" ports of the backhoe valve and use a bungee cord to hold the handle of the remote valve open in one direction or the other, whichever position allows the backhoe control valve to operate in the manner that you would like, in terms of which directions the individual handles are moved on the backhoe valve result in which direction the backhoe cylinders actually move.
