Takeuchi TB016. Can anyone tell me how to convert the auxiliary circuit from double acting to single acting? It’s currently double and the foot pedal operates a hydraulic thumb. I want to be able to mount a small flail. Is it as simple as unscrewing the bolt under the foot operated tilt pedal so that only one side of the pedal can be depressed or is there something else? Many thanks.

There’s a tap/handle on the outside front of the machine next to the king post, think on the right of the king post as you look at it from the cab. Just needs turning from double to single- couldn’t be easier

Put up a vid of it working interested to see how it performs

I’m being dense but I can find any tap or handle

TB016 are a bit of an oddball in this respect.

 

Most think they’re one way piped because they can’t find the taps, but the answer was under their foot all along.

 

You’re just the other way around going from two way to single.

 

Simply adjust the foot pedal stops to suit.

Might be ok for some attachments. But for example when I’m using a post knocker it needs to be in proper single acting mode so that when I press side B of the pedal it dumps the fluid back to the tank  as the hammer falls. My old TB016 and subsequent 216 had a lever next to the offset ram to easily change between the two…

They simply weren’t piped up like that as many Minis were simply single acting at the time and unusual to be two way facility.

 

Not a huge job to put a tap in and back to tank on the return if required.
