You could also a diverter valve on the 3rd function, which results in shorter hydraulic lines. A less costly, more DIY way was done by Martin on his "DIY My Way" channel (videos #180, #181, and #182). He added a linear actuator and a couple easily fabbed brackets to the existing loader, and put a switch in the cab. It's a bit slower than a hydraulic cylinder, takes about 8 seconds to lock or unlock it, but the total project cost is somewhere around $120 or so.
Yeah, I don't show DIY solutions on here as this is not a DIY channel. My channel is a business channel showing products that are available for purchase.
@JCWren I made my own and this is where I got my info from at DIY My Way. I used the same size actuator as he did but I ordered one a little bit bigger because if it gets in a bind it will blow the fuse. Not quite strong enough.
Courtney after 20plus years of driving over the road, I cherish my time on my feet. It looks like a great product I hope you have sales of that product.
Haha I hear ya!
Making operations more comfortable, practical and efficient one mod at a time.
Yes sir!
If you got the version of hydraulic SSQA you could have that and a operational 3rd function all in one. I have them on my L6060. In addition the hoses & fitting are included. However it may have cost more being OEM.. Excellent Video Courtney.......
I have the Kubota OEM version on our Grand L. We really like it. I have seen people struggle with the handles on SSQA and this helps you out as we age. This option will get you very close to the OEM.
Yeah we had an L6060 a few years ago. That was the only other one I’ve seen on a tractor in person.
I’ve got a grand L6060 with the factory version and it works great. Not sure why they never offered it on the bigger tractors
Great video! Love the hydraulic SSQA! For the hydraulic connections you could eliminate the quick couplers altogether and plumb the lines directly to the manifold. For this type of application the only time you would be disconnecting them would be if you took the loader off. Relocate the quick couplers to the loader bracket area.
Key Kyle, that would definitely be an option. Hope life is good!
Doug makes an excellent point. In the video, you have the boom raised enough to show the hydraulic pistons in motion…with no bucket attached. If the piston isn’t strong enough to push the locking pin to fall engagement… without the help of a bit more grease …then there’s something seriously wrong with the piston.
There's nothing wrong with it. Works just fine.
Though I have no need for it, I like the concept and design!!
I made my own using a cylinder I bought online and some short hoses going to a diverter valve on my 3rd function that I bought thru summit hydraulics, works great.
you have a video or photos of your setup?
@@badgiles no I don’t but I can get you some if you want.
I did basically the same thing except I used a Heavy Duty Linear Actuator, 12V DC and made my own by connecting it to the SSQC levers. I operate it with an on/off/on switch. I wish there was a way that I could send you a 42 sec. video of it showing how it's connected & works.
EDIT: I just noticed that @JCWren (below) explained how Martin (DIY My Way) did his and that is where I got the info to make my own.
I think your comment about the pinned on bucket replacement would be a boom for guys with older tractors. Me personally, I doubt I would need this on my baby size 3 series; sort of like a self driving car. Like the innovation however!
Yeah not for everyone, but cool to know it’s out there
I just bought the summit hydraulic multiplier. Anyway you can show the mounting bracket you have on the M4 ? I have one as well thanks ! Your channel is awesome
Good information and educational
Very educational. Thx
Thanks for watching, have a good one
Just did the same thing with an Amazon linear actuator and latching switch for $40. I already had the other materials needed.
My 4066r has skid steer setup now but would love to just push button to detach bucket
As the years creep up on me, things like this just get more and more attractive! Give it a few years, there will be an AI tractor you can just tell to mow the grass, move the hay, clear the stumps and bed down in the barn for the night!
Could you run a diverter off the 3rd function to operate the disconnect hudrolics?
Aelectric hydraulic diverter valve would be perfect to put on 3rd function for this situation.
That would be slick!
Awesome!
Your locking pin on right side is barely coming out ,not sure if it was camera angle or not
I think we needed a touch more grease.
@@GoodWorksTractors lubrication is very much a necessity with these.. Also.. Keep them clean of dirt and junk..
Doug makes an excellent point. In the video, you have the boom raised enough to show the hydraulic pistons in motion…with no bucket attached.

Hello, is it normal for the solenoid to get warm to hot with hydraulic fluid going through the summit multiplier.
That is sweet.
CAn you buy just cylinder? As already have skid steer attachment on my 4066r John Deere? A ND switch in cab?
No, it needs the matching plate to go along with it
A observation... I have no idea if hydraulic leak down will occur on cylinders connected to the multiplier's circuits when the circuit is NOT activated by its selector switch. I definitely experienced this issue on my JD 4720 with the JD "4th & 5th" SCV diverter option, which diverted the loader's joystick circuits to the rear of the tractor. It seems like adding a pair of double piloted check valves on the hydraulic SSQA's hydraulic cylinder would prevent that cylinder from moving (leaking down) and possibly releasing the SSQA attachment unintentionally. Again, just an observation.
Good call, definitely worth keeping my eye on. I have not experienced it yet, but doesn't mean it won't happen.
Does it come with switch in cab as you never shown button your pressing
No, that is all separate and is shown and explained later in the video
Nice option... Will speed you up... hope something doesn't get bent....😮😅
Many skid steers use them and have for years. Just not found much on tractors.
I did a electric conversion onto my Branson 2610H just hit a switch on my dash
Would you be willing to share how you did it?
@@brandonschudlich1497 If you want to share an email I will send a link to you. I don't share other channels, links, or how I did something on other people's channels without permission from the channel owner
Some thing is wrong with the right side pin. the pin is not coming down all the way.
Just needed a little more grease
I made an electric one. Surprised you don't have more haters on here. Got a lot of you still have to get off to hook up hydraulics. Like every attachment has hydraulics.
Thats a great idea! Who’s going to sell one first
Would you mind sharing how you did it?
@@brandonschudlich1497 Here is a video of it. On one side I used a piece of 1 in square tubing. On the other side, I used 3/4 Pvc pipe. I was hoping if something was going to break it would be the Pvc. I want to say the stroke was somewhere around 8 inches. The one I got was much longer. It is pretty easy to open them and make a part to limit the stroke. I 3d printed my stopper but one could be made of wood. There are 2 microswitches inside that stop the actuator at full extened and fully retracted, czcams.com/video/q8a2Amp_vQw/video.html
would it be easier to put a multiplier on the third function? like a 3rd function diverter? This would minimize hose length, routing and chafing.
Could be...haven't seen that setup available. I used what I already had so that made it more convenient.
where can i buy this kit and how much is it!!!!???????????????
Here you go www.goodworkstractors.com/product/hla-hydraulic-skidsteer-quick-attach-plate/
Will this work on my 4066r John Deere?
Yes with SSQA, not JDQA though
Do you think those are going to jump off the shelf?
Negative, it's a luxury item. Good upgrade for the right folks.
So the summit hydraulics you share and have affiliation with... is it the same company that makes the summit tractors?
No, it’s a completely separate company. Just a coincidence.
@@GoodWorksTractors thanks for the info.
No relation to Summit Racing, either :)
I’m fabricating one up using a 400lb electric actuator. I have a couple hundred bucks into the project so far but could do it for closer to $100 if I used a smaller actuator and didn’t opt for a programmable switch panel. It sure is a lot of work to upgrade something like this for a “lazy” person. 😂 I think people are just more likely to use the best implement for the job the easier it is to switch to it. Call it laziness or call it efficiency. 🤷♂️
You can upgrade pretty much anything
Can you upgrade an upgrade? 🤔🤯😂
@@GoodWorksTractors absolutely
@@TsunauticusIV haha good to know!
Sweeeeeeeet!!
I'll pass. I have to get off and stomp 9n my bucket to get it to snap down so the pegs can lock on my Kubota 4060 bucket. To me it's a pain to have a remote ssqa. Unless your swapping implement every 10 Min then I will avoid it. But they are damn convenient if you haven't tried one. I say buy one if you have the money.
So instead of buying this whole attachment to your tractor for the front end why not just sell the actuator in the the two swivel locking mechanism to hold the attachment .nt.. that would be cheaper than trying to make this whole thing fits your tractor. I know that tractors are different. But it seems like you could sell these parts to adapt to what you have on your tractor already? It's a hard justification spending $3,000 on something that locks and unlocks for different quick attachments.. seems like they would have made something a little bit more economical.. just kind of pricey for what you're trying to do.
There’s dozens of styles of SSQA. While the dimensions of the SSQA are standard, the brackets, geometry, and general design of how each manufacturer finishes off the non-critical portion of the quick attach would make this nearly impossible. I’d have zero interest in spending engineering time as I think it’s a futile effort.
I'll be glad when most of this hydraulic stuff is replaced with electric or electric over hydraulic.
Just add an electric actuator if you're that lazy. Seems like something that simple, you'd want to verify at the point of connection with your own eyes. What's next, green and red lights with micro-switches to light up when it's engaged or not. C'mon, get in the real world. Great video though, thanks for sharing 👍
I guess “lazy” is subjective. Lazy could very well be using a tractor instead of doing the job by hand. Why not ride a bike and not use a car. Shoot, walk everywhere. Entertain yourself and don’t watch CZcams videos that other people worked to create. Just sayin, we are all lazy in someone’s eyes.
I did say it was a nice video, but an simple operation to latch something that easy, seemed a little bit over-kill. . Sorry if I offended you
@@tcmits3699then you can call me lazy, 😂. I want this to install when my tractor gets shipped to the dealer. Already have the 6 valve hydraulic multiplier sitting on my dining room table. Just a matter of installing everything.
Making simple things more complicated! Don't forget your elevator step up to the cab. Why step up like a caveman when you can push a button?
Dude, you’re on to something. Hydraulic step. Another use for the multiplier on back. Genius!
@@GoodWorksTractors lol I'm not kidding. I have seen many elderly farmers with them, especially on combines. Simple fold up platform lift, hydraulically controlled.
You can even make it fold out and drop when the door is opened, just like the extendable truck side steps.
@@DonnieDarko727 Not just the elderly. I was nearly killed by a drunk driver in 1999 and my right side only has about 40% of the strength of my left. I am almost definitely going to end up needing a step like you described and a hydraulic SSQA dis/connect in the future. I bought a YT347 instead of a JD 4-Series because the step and floor are lower and it has an extra inch and a half between the console and seat so it's easier for me to slide my leg over. Kubota was an automatic NO because my ankle doesn't have enough dexterity to comfortably use a treadle pedal all day.
@@Noah_E gotcha. I am a physical therapist, so I see the problems and possible solutions to keep using these machines.
The electric option looks better option
Under $100, and if fail, you can do it manually
