Massey 6480 loader on electric spools joystick

[dannewhouse]

Does anyone have one running on the joystick,
I'm looking at adding a loader with its own electronic valve block but using the joystick that's already there. I realise I need away of swapping the electronic output from spools to loader
What/ where do I do the electronic connection?

It’s piped in to the rear spools with a diverter block irl see if I’ve got any info or pic of it

AHH I was thinking I could have used a second spool block and provided hydraulic flow return + extra pipe.
How would you use 3rd service?
And is there just 1 switch to swap that block 38 to the loader?

Our old 6480 had a two tap block on top of the spools that you switch across to use the front links it’s the same on our 7618 two pipes come out of the side of the rear spool slice to the front links

Ye mine has that, basically the same as for hitch. But your couplings are live, with the loader they wouldn't want to be?

Have just found this on the quickie parts book never seen this type before

Thanks that's exactly what I want to do.
Now to figure it out ...
How to turn the power off to the normal spools, they must work through relays?
Could I knock out the 1 supply to them all at once?
And the 3rd service?
Do you have a link to the book?
Thanks

3rd service just needs a relay put in to the fuse box and find the wire
Yes just add a switch in to the cab to change over between loader and spools

What wires does it break/make contact with?
It's a used set from a 7618 but I'm hoping it more or less plug and play fingers crossed

Can you not use the lock out button somehow ?

Maybe, but when using the spools it would then power the loader?
I was thinking of a way of stopping the power going to all the relays IE if they are on 1 feed switch it.
But might be using same relays

No idea if it’s possible but you you swap the tapped block for a electronic type like the mid mound types on newer tractors? Prob silly expensive mind

There’s no relays in that system it’s pwm (pulse width modulation) have you any pictures I’d guess if it’s off a 7618 it was probably using a mid mounted spool block

One for @Mr Happy maybe

 

[ih1455xl]

Looks like a walvoil block so might be easier to give it it’s own separate joystick

 

[dannewhouse]

As far as I know it was designed to run off the 7618 joystick so shouldn't be that much different?
