65 hydrulics

[560 D]

i have a 65 that has a loader on it the loader is plumbed to the rear outlets so one of the levers by your right leg has to be back and the other in the middle in order to use the three point you have to switch the lever positions i was wondering if there is any way to get power for the loader without using the rear outlets .

Hi,
The oil from the Ferguson pump can only be used to operate either the internal or external hydraulics at any one time. If you have a seperate valve block for the loader you would be able to take a supply from a suitable isolating valve mounted in place of your present lever block.
Such valves are available with one, two or three ports. One for the loader and two seperate rear outlets. You would not be able to operate a double acting ram this way. You would require a further D/A valve block.
There are ways to achieve what you want but as usual it will depend how deep your pocket is.

Even if you rig the internal pump plumbing so that it services both the loader and the three point, you will not be happy with the result. The internal pump's 5 gpm just doesn't have the flow to operate a loader in any but slow motion. Been there, done that.
It's more than worth the money to add an engine driven front pump. Do a search on the site. You'll find there's loads of information on how to do it. It's not all that expensive, and the best thing you'll do to increase the utility of your tractor.
