Guys, how are we doing? Welcome to GoodWorks Tractors. Today we're going to go over a way to potentially add on that third function to your tractor. So you can control the grapple, control the hydraulic angle blade, all their attachments as well for a very affordable price and a DIY solution. So I've been following this company online for a while and checking out what they have to offer, both on Amazon and on their website as well. There's quite a bit more on their website too, but some hydraulics you can see right there. Okay, actually I started working with them. You're going to get a discount if you do order something off of their website, 5% with code GWT. But what this is is basically, this is the thumb control, alright. This is just part of the kit that you can get. We're going to show you right here. This is for a John Deere 1025R. They do make kits for kabotas, for John Deere's, or more of a universal system as well. So if you have a massier coyote or something else, there could be a solution out there for you also for larger tractors. And take a look at this as well. This is coming up in just a little bit. So stick around. This is called a hydraulic multiplier. A completely different product from some of hydraulics. It's going to give you a way to open up the versatility and expand the amount of hydraulic options you have on your tractor for a very affordable price. So this kit comes with everything you see right here, everything from hoses to the block and the fittings, the electrical, the joystick. Even some host covers here as well, but it's all included there and meant to be a DIY solution for roughly half the cost. Maybe even potentially a third of the cost of what some of the dealers are charging to install. We're not going to cover installation in this particular video. This is going to give you just the overview of what the product is all about. We'll cover installation in a future video. Okay, so the heart of this whole concept, this whole system is going to be this block right here. You can see the fittings right here, here, here, all around. All right. So this is going to end up mounting to the bracket that's on your front end loader. It's going to kind of clamp on. You'll clamp down with these couple of brackets here and just keep on wrenching it down until it gets tight and holds in place. But think about it this way. All right. I'm going to try to break this down real simple for you. This right here is going to be your incoming side, all right. Coming from the tractor side. That's where your flow is going to come in and out of. You'll connect the existing hovels is right here. All right. And so then if it was in normal operation like you want to curl or roll your bucket, those are going to end up connecting right here. So you're going to kind of split those connections apart on your tractor. You're going to end up putting this right in between those connections. So in normal operation, that flow just continues on, comes right through, goes through this fitting and over to your curl roll cylinders. That function right there. However, you bring into play this joystick right here. And in particular, this little button that you can see. So when you push this button or squeeze it, it's going to activate what you see on top right here. This is going to be the solenoid control. And so what's going to happen is if you push that button, this solenoid is going to activate and it's going to redirect the flow or divert the flow. That's why you might hear it call a divertor valve. It's going to divert that flow from going in that normal circuit to curl and roll the function, cut it off from doing that and redirect it to these locations right here. And so then you're going to have an extra set of hovels that are included. They're going to be connected here. And you'll rot those up front down to the front of your tractor and you'll plug in your grapple or your hydraulic kit for your angling blade. And so you push that button and then that flow is going to allow you to open or close the grapple or angle your blade left or right by doing that. When you release that button, guess what? You go back to normal operation here so you can kind of, if you have that jaw closed on your grapple, you can then curl, sorry, curl or roll it. If you have that blade that's angled, how you want it, then you can kind of rock it back or forward. Okay, so again, you're going to use these two brackets here. You can see this is a threaded rod that you have right there. So you see the little groove that's in each one of these little black slots. This is not the side you want to mount the sun. You want to mount it on the inside rail. I'm just showing it here so it's easier for you guys to see. But you would put it on there, kind of just clamp one side and then clamp the other side. And then you're just going to use your wrenches, tighten it down so it squeezes and that's how it's going to hold in place. So here you're going to have your short host sections that are just going to kind of go from point A from point B on the tractor side to the block and then vice versa from the block up to the rest of your hoses there. And then you're also going to have your long sections right here that are going to go from the diverter portion of that block all the way up front to where the business end of it's going to be down at the front of the loader arms. And so then this is actually going to go right onto the end of those hoses. Comes with a clamp you can see here. You'll just undo this and then put it right around the tube on your loader up front. Clamp it down just adjusted accordingly so that it can fit the way you want it to. And then this is where you're going to plug in the hydraulics, the fittings for your hydraulics that control your grapple your hydraulic blade, whatever it might be. And the last thing I want to show you is that there are going to be some electrical components included as well. You're going to have a control circuit that goes all the way up to the cell annoyed. This will actually end up just plugging right into the cell annoyed right up here. And then you're going to have the other end of that circuit that is actually going to tie into the power system on your tractor. You can see there are some fuses included as well to make sure that everything is protected accordingly. Okay, we have a hydraulic multiplier kit here. Hydraulic multiplication. Okay, you have one incoming feed and then you have a bunch of outgoing fees or choices that you can make. You're going to see this is called a six block right here. It gives you five additional functions. Let me try to paint a picture for you on how this works. So if you have a six block multiplier like what you see here, it's going to give you five additional functions because you need to have one function that's on your tractor already. Say come a third function coming out the back. So you don't have to have a six block hydraulic multiplier here. They make them in a two so you can just have one extra function or a three. So you can have two extra functions. Basically you take whatever the number is. So six cylinders, six ports that are on here, it's going to give you five additional functions. Right? So if you have one third function coming off the back of your machine already and you plug this into it, you kind of sacrificing that initial one that you plugged in. But you're going to control everything then right through this block here. It's all cell noise operated. You don't run all of these at the same time. It's not really designed to do that. You basically have a control panel that's going to be mounted on the operator station of your tractor. You select which circuit you need to run. You operate it and you switch back to another one. Just keep on going down the line. So let's give you a look at what all is included in a system like this and just how it would operate. Okay, so similar to the diverter kit that we talked about for the front end loader, this is going to kind of come with a complete package of what you need, all the hydraulic stuff here. And then all the electrical stuff as well. I want to give you a close up view right here of the control that's actually just going to mount right in the operator station, whether you have an open station or a cab. I don't think that really matters. So you can see here, this is going to be your switch panel right here where you can kind of just turn individually on and off the circuit that you want to control. So you might think it's kind of weird and that you want to run more than one of these circuits at the same time. But in most cases, that's not really going to be what you're doing. So in my application, I'm adding this onto my 4066R. I've got a hydraulic top and a tilt kit. I only need to use those kind of functions sporadically. Just here or there to make an adjustment. I'm going to be adding on a rear mounted snowblower that's going to have a hydraulic shoot rotation, a hydraulic deflector, and then also a hydraulic back drag. So that's five functions right there that I need. I don't really need to use any of those at the same time. So I'm just going to select which circuit I need to use, make that adjustment, maybe rotate the shoot if I need to, adjust the deflector if I need to, maybe raise up or lower the hydraulic back drag. And then I go on to what I'm doing and I just click a button and I switch to the other function that I need to adjust at that point. You're also going to see all of your cabling and harnesses are included to be able to hook up to all the cellinoids right here that are on top of the hydraulic multiplier block there, as well as feeding everything to the control panel and then right on down to the battery terminals as well. So as you can see here, there's also a mounting bracket that is included with some bolt patterns there to hopefully match up with what you have available on your tractor. Who knows, you may have to custom make a little something to make it work, but at least you have something included. So this is going to be something new for me installing this. I will kind of walk you through it as I do it in an upcoming video in the near future, but I'm not going to pretend like I've ever done this before because I have it. It's something that I want to do and improve my machine. So hopefully you can learn from my mistakes and it goes a lot smoother for you. You know, so this is my 4066R here and kind of one of those rear functions I'm talking about is something like this, this third function here, or you can have a fourth or a fifth. It doesn't really matter. You have to have something on the back there that you can kind of plug into already to make that hydraulic multiplier work. You know, I first got that idea when I had a tractor come in. It was a John Deere 4720. I hit on that a little bit in a video a few months ago, but it was a really cool concept. It's the first time I had even seen it. I wish I would have paid more attention to actually how it was installed and routed at that point. So I'm going to have to kind of learn from the beginning when I install it on this machine right here, but I'm looking forward to it. So whether you're looking to add a diverter kit to the front of your tractor to maybe operate that grapple or that hydraulic blade or maybe a hydraulic multiplier just to get more functions on your machine at a more affordable price and getting a fourth and a fifth kit or a traditional style of setup of remote. Summit Hydraulics has a lot of good solutions.
