Igland 3000/2 help

[JamesWood]

Hi i have a igland 3000/2 winch electro hydraulicontrolsc. Just setting it up. Its an awkwards thing to get on due to its articulation but main issue is its top linkage is actually bent. 2"thick  so gonna get it in the forge and straightened hopefully. also the previous owner mentioned the return hydraulics need to go direct to tank otherwise it damages the drums. is this true as was just hoping to use the standard connections but dont want to cause additional damage. Any tips appreciated. Its going on a holder a 60 turbo. Any experience out there? Even a manual or otherwise would be really uaefull.

 

Heres a photo of bent top link;

 

Thanks

Much too modern for me, mine have the mechanical controls, even so the controls only active the clutches don’t they?

 

the reason for not returning the flow via the tractor spool is that the extra restriction heats the oil and if there is excessive pressure in the return line it can damage seals in the control spool. Is the tank separate from the final drive oil in the A60? I would expect it to be return to the final drive case somewhere, ideally under the oil level.

Hi, can't help much with the winch, but Im currently working on an A60, which has a dump modified straight back into the hydraulic tank, a similar mod should help with your problem. 

You don't by any chance have a workshop manual do you??

My 6000/2 needs a free flow return. No restrictions and definitely no quick fit connectors.

Thanks for the replies. Looks like I'm going to arrange a free flow return into the hydraulic tank. 

 

Workshop manuals for the a60 can be obtained from
