Compact tractor hydraulics

[diggerjones]

I've been on the look out for a tipping trailer for my compact tractor. The problem is i have a blade on front with double acting ram but tipping rams are normally single acting. Any ideas?

had the same issue with me FLT mast on't 'Drema Dylan ..... Mog gave me the solution ... one way of the service goes to your tip ram ... the other way of your service goes to a tank drain.
when you operate tip it fills the ram .... to get it back down you operate the service the 'other way' which dumps to tank and opens the valve block to allow the oil in the ram to drain back through the open spool .... it even sucks it through a little, flowing to tank .... works a treat on me mast ... the second side of the service is coupled to me breaker tank line with a short hose - first side of the service is coupled to the mast's ram port

can see the short hose on the left of the dipper - just about

Thanks Graham. Will give some thought

As above full size tractors are all like this but all have a float setting on there spool which is preferable to use to bring the trailer down so you aren't blowing the pressure relief valve constantly I don't know if your spool will have this though

No spool on the back of tractor. I cut into the oil pressure line to work the front dozer

have you got a free to tank return line Dylan ?

 

[diggerjones]

Not sure. Will have to have a look

Would it not be simpler to just get a 2 way ran from Flowfit? They aren’t mega money (or weren’t last time I bought from them).

Ram, not ran. A two way ran sounds like pointless hard work, just drive!

 

[diggerjones]

That had crossed my mind dan.

depends how big a ram it is MB .... and if it's single or multi stage which tip rams usually are
