Finally got enough snow to use my blower here, but blower has a hydraulic ram to rotate chute. I unhooked the bucket hoses and hooked in ram lines. Ram would extend but not retract so I switched lines but still would not retract. Plus the loader would not lift. I unhooked ram from chute to rule out a jam in there, but same results.
For now I've gone back to the manual rotator but would like to use the hydraulics.
Am I missing something in the way I'm hooking it up or do I need to put a third set of remotes on? Would like to keep loader on for getting into corners or heaven forbid, I need to push myself out.
Thanks

Lines should be connected to the yellow and black ports for chute rotate. Only guessing maybe the one hose wasn't completely inserted. Hope you have it corrected.

Ok, so this I assume is a rear mounted 3PH blower.

The curl function of the valve has a "feature" on it called "regen". You can read a lot about it here: http://www.greentractortalk.com/for...ction-front-end-loader-valve-read-here-;.html

So, when your blower is plugged in, only push the joystick slightly to the right and the chute should rotate-if you push to far you will enter the regen section of the valve-then both lines will pressurize and the cylinder will stall.

And as ET wrote, make sure the lines are connected all the way and to the correct ports.

Yes it is a rear mount unit, pto driven. Tried what you said with joystick but same results, ram won't work and loader won't lift. Thank you for the input, will call dealer tomorrow, is only a few months old.

The loader not lifting sounds to me like you have it plugged into the wrong ports.

You are connecting it (the blower) to ports B and C correct?
