Anyone seen this before?

I am expecting delivery soon, weather permitting, of a new JD 2720. My salesman had me come in Wednesday for a predelivery walk around.
I ordered the independent lift & diverter valve. I was expecting 6 hydraulic outlets under the right floor board, but this setup has 8.

That is normal with the diverter I think.

You have 4 for the loader normally, and the diverter plugs into two of those. Then the diverter has 4 of it's own for a total of 8.
That is a ton of hoses! Keep us posted on your new 2720. :thumbup1gif:

Agreed. I struggle with 4 :)
Sorry, but not only have I not seen it before I have no idea what you are going to use it for. I guess I'm all set now to learn something.

lift kit

That's correct. I have the same setup on my 2520. They did it that way so you don't have to unhook your hoses to switch between the loader and mower deck. There should be a handle that you push in and pull out to switch from one to the other. It's a change they did late last year to eliminate the levers. The handle should be located around your 12 volt plugin.:thumbup1gif:

I understand now. The salesman showed me the handle when I did a predelivery walk around. I was confused because I had only seen pictures of tractors with 6 outlets.
The 2 bucket control outlets are routed back to the diverter valve & then back to the 4 new middle outlets. It does not change anything on the original hydraulic system. I guess if the diverter valve develops a problem, I can just unhook it & plug directly into the 2 original bucket control outlets.
