I went to your instructional….looking for guidance on spool valve selection …there are two rams…should the rotating ram have a float dentent feature on the spool valve…? Or two float detects for the outreach ram…? Basically I want the unit to move upwards if the terrain dictates….
If you feel you need a float position. You only need to float the unit not the out reach. If you have a front end loader with float, take the loader off and use the loader valve, get you some hoses made up and your done. If you don't want to do that then go to Amazon, Norther tool and get a dual spool valve with float and plumb it in. It this is the way you go like with a Prince brand or Cross brand valve, get the power beyond sleeve. "P" port is from the pump "PBY" goes to your lift cover "T" or "R" goes to the side of the transmission. A cheap way... is to run a hose to tank. put a female quick coupler on it. Get the mower in position then connect one of the hoses to it. I do no worry with the float because there is slack in the linkage.
Just picked up my M160SE yesterday, i’ll be watching this vid over and over before I put it to use. What size (hp) tractor are you running it on? Thanks for the content, btw.
40 PTO HP tractor with rear hydraulic outlets. If you have a loader keep it on the tractor for the extra weight when the arm is extended and in the vertical position. If your going to extend the mower out to the side and on the ground there will be no issues with weight. Also keep your rear remotes in the "float position to allow the mower to float to the ground's surface. Your going to love this mower. I know they are expensive but the quality is unsurpassed and it will last decades. Check those belts after you run it a few hours. Your dealer should have told you this information when you purchased it.
@@smallfarminnovations4265 you wouldn’t happen to have an assembly instruction video for the M160 (wink) got mine uncrated and it looks complex and heavy?
Excellent and thorough instructions Phil!
This looks better built than my Titan Attachments. It also has a lot of features the Titan doesn't have.
Maschio is Italian made. Very well built. The Flail mower with the swing arm is becoming more popular thanks to guys like you.
Nice!
Nice
