Anyone know anything about hydraulics?

Depending on the valve block you can pipe an extra lever through the high pressure carry over line and will allow you to fit another lsingle Bank lever valve. Or you can fit a six way diverter which can be operated via a switch and it will send oil to the rotator as opposed to the grab

You mention fitting a 6 way diverter, is this the sort of thing you are meaning? https://www.flowfitonline.com/hydraulic-valves/diverterball-valves/hydraulic-6-way-diverter-valve-closed-centre-38-bsp?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIxLD7nIny2wIVw5UbCh3DPApFEAQYAyABEgJD3PD_BwE . Where would it fit? I'm assuming in place of where the current service comes from the lever block?

Sorry for pestering with so many questions but I don't really have great knowledge on this

I was just looking at that one, same idea as what I posted only more discreet as it can be hidden away. Can't make head nor tail of the technical pdf though haha. Thank you though, think I've got it straight what I need now, just need to figure out the correct way to plumb it in now [emoji85]

Thanks for the replies. The current pipe work runs a pipe from the pump to a 5 lever spool then obviously back to the tank. No room to fit a 6 lever spool so would have to be a separate lever. My thoughts were to just spur off the pump pipe to a lever with closed centre then a spur back to the tank pipe, would this work or am I thinking too simply? I'll get a pic of the setup tomorrow

hi when you said skid steer i thought space would be tight but what you have described should work , just try it and no your not thinking to simply at all, as simplicity is reliability and a old bloke told me that 40yrs ago and how right was he.
