Aux/swing arm hydrolics kx71-2 anyone know?

[CPS]

The KX121-2 Had A green square button on the left hand console foe offset from memory

Find the solenoid valve for switching slew/offset, buy a 3 way switch mount it in the left hand consul, wire slew left, o/S right and feed into the middle, earth both solenoids to the chassis somewhere.

I havnt added a pic of the left as it does not have a button - happy to add a picture of nothing

Although we think it may be a separate button on the left console.. Watch this space

could be a 'concealed button' under the stick's 'skin' ...... looks like the right one might have been

I've attached a wiring diagram... As for the button it is hidden under the plastic of the lever and can be difficult to push. If it isn't there then like I say someone has moved the switch. If you look on the diagram I've attached you'll be able to look for two wires that colour and find them somewhere under the left arm rest/console.

There is also from memory a light on dash to show offset is engaged from the last kub I drove with the slew/offset setup on left lever

Another forum had a guy asking about his slew offset not working and says button on left lever

have a problem with my kx71 - the machine slew works fine but a few weeks back the boom swing stopped working.
Not a major issue but earlier this week it developed a hydraulic leak.While sorting the leak (loose pipe connection) I thought I would have a look at the boom swing function. As far as I could see there is a solenoid operated directional valve which operates to switch from machine slew to boom swing (push button on LH control lever). Checked this with a meter - getting 12v when button is selected.

Cheers buddy, already got that diagram -started with the WSM to check all was as original, which it is. Seriously there is no button either current or past on the left stick. Never was a soft spot,

Take loads of pic of your cab so we can see the whole thing

Guessing some one has replaced the lever with the missing for a kx41 lever no button, (foot pedal) but at the same time left the slew solenoid activated, as I think it does this by default through a switching relay, probably never used the offset after that!
