ASSEMBLY OF A BUSH HOG BACKHOE TO A BUSH HOG LOADER VALVE
IMPORTANT: Improper hydraulic
When connecting the Bush Hog backhoe valve to a Bush Hog front end loader valve, the input pressure line from the tractor will be connected to the loader valve first. The power beyond pressure line will be connected to the input pressure port of the backhoe valve. In order to properly plumb the system, the loader valve will require converting to a power beyond valve. Refer to the Operator’s Manual received with the loader for the proper assembly of the power beyond valve.
There have been several different valves used on the loader in past years. The fittings required to con- vert the Bush Hog loader valve to a power beyond application are included in the loader valve kit. If the fittings (or plugs) cannot be located, they can be
obtained from Bush Hog Service Parts. Before attempting to order the plug you must first determine the manufacturer of the loader valve assembled to your loader. This can be determined from the identifi- cation plate located on the valve.
1.Install the power beyond plug received with the loader valve into valve cavity as shown in Figure 23 (Page 32). Make sure
2.Install a pressure line (supplied by customer) between the tractor pressure “out” port and the pres- sure inlet port of the loader valve.
3.Install a pressure line (supplied by customer) between the power beyond fitting of the loader valve and the pressure inlet port of the backhoe valve as shown in Figure 23.
4.Complete assembly of “return” hoses as shown in Figure 23. Connect return hoses from both valves to tee as shown. Hoses and tee supplied by customer. Connect the return line directly to a port on the tractor reservoir as shown in Figure 23.
