FINALLY A CHEAP 3RD FUNCTION DIVERTER KIT FOR A TRACTOR! 🚜

[@VNV67]

Finally a person that know what he is talking about and takes time to explain it... Very helpful and I thank you for this video.

[@paulgreen4809]

I watch this video I'm still confused can you help me want to know if you're getting the kids from summit racing or are you actually getting the kids from he's talking about that this is the 1025r John Deere if you can help me thanks

I don’t know why anyone would thumbs down this video. GWT always has the end user in mind providing great products and information. Great Channel!

[@jeffneisen7553]

I just installed the 3 port multiplier from Summit on my 2520 to control the chute rotation and deflection for a rear mount snowblower. The valve diverts the curl loader function to the rear couplings. The hardest part of the install is routing the four hydraulic hoses from the bottom of the tractor to the rear. I mounted the valve to the right side roll bar, so it is at a nice height for coupling and uncoupling. The kit comes with everything needed for the install. The guys from Summit are great to work with and I would highly recommend purchasing one of their kits.

[@jeffneisen7553]

The kit comes with a cigarette lighter plug to power the solenoids, however there is no “Off” position on the switch so one of the solenoids will always have power and will drain the battery if left plugged in. I ditched the plug and installed a relay under the dash with the coil connected to the ignition switch, one side of the relay is connected directly to the battery, and the other side to the solenoid.

[@smitty2jones]

I added one a diverter and grapple to my BX last spring! Best addition I've made! I had to mount the valve on the outside of the loader, there wasn't room inside. It's still within the track of the rear wheels, so it's not like it sticks out. I used 90° on the outside ports to keep it skinny, too!

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Awesome, how was the DIY install? Think most owners could figure it out?

[@smitty2jones]

@@GoodWorksTractors It wasn't bad at all. I pieced mine together instead of buying a kit, but once I had all the pieces and made a couple of brackets, it went really smooth. On my BX2230, the loader valve is on the loader itself, so I think that made it simpler also. The only additional connection (when removing/installing the loader) is the electrical connector from the fuse block to the switch/solenoid. I'm not much good with this youtubes stuff, but I uploaded a short video of me sounding like a goofball and showing my install if you want to check it out!

[@TimeAfterTym]

This is really very interesting. I hope that the instructions are comprehensible and, hence, easy to follow.

[@rbhillner]

I can't wait to see this multi function installed and in use ! Things are a lot more complicated and technical than my grandfathers' 1950 Ferguson that had that new " fangled " three point hitch system. A huge step up from the horses .

Thank you, sir, outstanding video and outstanding presentation, crystal clear understanding now of how a diverter valve works. Subscribed. Will check out all your other videos. God bless you.

[@deanmeyer1815]

I purchased the Summit diverter kit for our Deere 4105 to run a brush grapple. Looking forward to installing it soon. Instructions are very detailed and specific to tractor to be used on. This model does not have rear remotes and we are researching ways to mount one soon. I will be checking with Summit to see if they have a solution. Thanks for the videos, we are looking at more accessories for it.

@@GoodWorksTractors Sorry, we looked at several different brands and and went with Artillion. Got the names mixed up. 😏

[@bradmeacham6982]

Excellent info! The multiplier is an excellent solution to getting a serious quantity of SCV circuits for controlling hydraulic cylinders on 3PH attachments. Not only can you go from one to 6 circuits in your example -of which only one needs to be adjusted at a time- it is, by far, cheaper than any factory solution. It is also far easier to install than factory SCVs since they need someplace for each SCV valve, a way to position their control sticks in the operators station, and a way to rout their hydraulics to the back of the tractor.

[@dwayneloftice2326]

The new, cost-effective options just keep on coming! My head is spinning!!!!😀

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Haha, I was always told to stare at the horizon when I got dizzy :)

[@stephenseiwert9672]

Thanks for another great informative video. I have the Summit Diverter valve kit installed on my John Deere 2038r and I love it. I use it to operate my grapple I had my John Deere dealer install it when they installed the 2 optional SCVs on the rear of my tractor. I really like the "fighter jet" style joy stick handle with the trigger in lieu of a thumb switch. Makes it effortless to toggle between the the dump and curl and the open and close functions.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Right on, that's good info. Thanks for sharing!

[@mattriley6866]

@@GoodWorksTractors Hey I’m getting all the parts I need to hook up a front plow.

[@Itsa_Mea]

I guess I was 2 weeks early to take advantage of your discount code. I ordered a Kubota True 3rd Function kit and adapted it to fit my FORD NH 1520. Excellent quality and works flawless. Now I want to add a rear diverter kit for Hydraulic Top link and maybe angle. I went with this kit for my new dual ram grapple.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Nice, glad to hear it's working well for you!

[@chex313]

I'll add this, it is a challenging install (Summit Diverter) if you also have a Single Point...It will not fit on the Mast like they intend. I am adding a bracket to get mine out away from the SP. I would not want to put it on the outside of the mast. FYI The lines tho are plenty long to place it where it fits, and I knew it would be tight when I ordered it.

[@kylerayk]

@@lukehansen9185 oh I have ran a hydraulic grapple, so single jaw and dual. And yes they do a great job. For my work on my retirement farm, electric does the trick quite well. Depends on application. My .02.😎

[@garyfunk1346]

- I what to use this diverter valve for a future grappler- when the grappler opens up and closes, is it just one speed or can you control the speed somehow at which the grappler jaws are opening and closing

[@kevinbrewer2141]

I've seen deserters for the front but for the back that is very cool. It opens up the options instead of wasting the remote and lines that are already there.

[@toddsmith3002]

I use a Faster 6 block ( 3 SVC points) for my 1025R great when switching form Loader to Snow Blower. I am just starting to look into a grapple so this is perfect timing. can not wait for the install video on the 1025 diverter.

[@justadbeer]

I had Kubota add a 3rd function valve to my new 2650 before I picked it up. Just for comparison, the cost was $800 installed. This kit would save you about $250. Although not quite half the cost, and you do have to install it, I would think it would be pretty simple for someone that is a car guy or has some mechanical knowledge

[@GoodWorksTractors]

This is a example of the cost of adding an option when you buy the tractor new vs doing something after you already own the tractor. I tell folks all the time to add these types of options when buying new as you'll save lots of money vs adding on down the road. Your example just proves that point further. Also, that's about the cheapest I've ever heard of any dealer adding on an additional function regardless of Kubota or JD. Thanks for sharing, good stuff!

[@lh98]

Good Works Tractors yeah the price around here is 1500 for installed 3rd. I have a 1533 mahindra I want to add function for a grapple but am unsure if I could use the rear lines I have when backhoe is off but those lines have no control lever (controls are on the backhoe). or maybe I should go with diverter ?

[@cnccutter61]

I put one of Summits true third function kits on my Mahindra 3 mounts ago. Works great! In my area I saved 75% over what the dealer wanted for just the value and summits made it so easy to install in under 2 hours.

[@lh98]

which mahindra? I have a 1533 shuttle that I want to add third function to. I would use the rear hoses but I have no control lever for it once I remove the backhoe. Seems like wasted lines there with no way to control them that could work with really long hoses and a valve.

[@mr.fringeminority5426]

Thanks for the info on the summit products. I've been looking into summit to increase my own functionality, and this is a great start to covering their products. I'm looking into the EH valve blocks, rather than a diverter/multiplier kit, as having these functions on a dedicated circuit seems safer, and more productive. The only issue I have with the EH valve blocks is that they don't appear to have any proportional controls on offer at the moment. Using the diverter/multiplier would allow that by utilizing the proportional control already installed on the tractor (joystick). It's a toss up.. The price range is similar, but the pros and cons of the actual hardware make it hard to decide. For any that don't know what I mean by 'proportional' - I mean that you can control the speed of the hydraulic circuit.

[@aaronkaus7423]

Is there a single connect hydraulic kit for using loader/mower on 1023e tractors? I have a leaking connection where I switch out from loader to mower. Yellow connector

[@s1283]

Super find. Definitely on my future purchase list for when I get home from deployment in 2022, for now though I’ve got my sights on the brush crusher first. Making the most use out of what I currently am set up for. But I’m sure if after a Brush crusher, I put on a diverter system, I’ll be able to sell a used brush crusher and have a good chunk for a hydraulic grapple... but is it worth the loss of capability with a 1025r? The loader is already limited on lift capacity

Thanks Ed, glad you like it!

[@ddacombe4752]

awesome! i like the look of the multiplier, it may be a great way to add a hydraulic top link to my 2038r as i already have one scv with the power beyond for the backhoe.

[@johns17m]

Is the first valve that you showed something that, if mounting the valve somewhere other than on the loader, you could use this to potentially run a hydraulic actuator for a front mounted snowblower chute deflector?

[@stump-bossBIll]

Man, were you reading my mind? I've been on phone just this morning with Summit Hydraulics and Artilian today trying to figure out what the best DIY option is for my JD3320.....Perfect Timing! He (Mark at Summit) told me at Summit that the hoses are separate because the system is universal and they have no way to know what length hoses need to be?

[@mkd03515]

I was looking through your videos to see if you did one on a diverter kit for the 3 point/ mower deck hydraulic system.. unable to find anything.. recommendations?

[@mrwilson4909]

think it would possible to rig the actual trigger mechanism [ not the handle] on the 4-way handle of the 1025r? would seem difficult to operate electric solenoid trigger handle and 4-way hydraulic remote at the same time.

Can the diverter be used on a 1025r with a Curtis cab?

[@davidparadis490]

Does a dealer installed 3rd function work as a diverter valve or are you able to do 2 functions simultaneously such as raise the bucket and clamp the grapple down at the same time?

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Good question. That will totally depend on the tractor, the dealer, and what's requested. Every tractor will be setup differently, have different hydraulic capacities, and many times dealers and/or customers will mistake one for the other.

[@TelescopeJunky]

David I installed an OEM 3rd function from my manufacturer, TYM, and it is a diverter. You cannot do 2 functions simultaneously. Like Courtney said though that does not mean other manufacturers use diverters for OEM 3rd function kits.

You could get different hoses and reroute to the back with a quick disconnect back there. So, then you could plug into something on the backside if needed. Or, slap a quick connect on another set of hoses from the back going to the front if you want to run something like a grapple.

Lots of people don't know about 3 Spool valves. for older tractors this is also a valid option to adding a 3rd function for a grapple and maybe a little cheaper.
