Thaddeus Smith Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 My father in law has been rocking a Ford 650 until this year. Vertical shifter, won't start in the cold, overheats in the summer, but keeps on trucking. Getting to be too much of a hassle so he just pulled the trigger on a nice new Kabota. Removable front loader, bucket and pallet fork attachments, hydrostatic transmission, hydraulic this and that. I can't wait to brush hog my field this year :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paducah Home Theater Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I made a mistake when I got mine and got one with no remotes. I didn't even know what a remote was. Not sure if I should try to add one or sell it and start over or save up for a second tractor or what. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JL Sargent Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) Easy enough to add an adapter plate to it. Mine didn't have one either. I added the block and now use a log splitter, backhoe, and front end loader all off that one port. These Fords have an open center type hydraulic system so you can operate about any open center attachment with one. This may or may not be the exact one you would need but this is what they look like. Mounts right under the seat. http://www.ebay.com/itm/FORD-TRACTOR-HYDRAULIC-REMOTE-ADAPTER-600-601-800-801-861-900-901-2000-3000-4000-/131419556209?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1e99374971 Edited February 3, 2015 by JL Sargent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what the difference is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JL Sargent Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Sounds like you looked at some hydraulic spools for the tractor or similar. The correct plate is all you need to get going. I believe that part of your tractor is the same as mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvu80 Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 are none of these suitable for you? http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=jerry+can Those are the ones! I have a couple of the red ones,with standard flexible metal spout. That would $65 from Amazon. I'm pretty sure I paid about $20 per can, with spout.

The Dude Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Yeah I don't know what the difference is between a spool vs. not a spool. If it didn't have a spool, I couldn't see how you would control the hydraulic function. Unless it was to run constantly you would need a spool. In terms of a spool or spool valve, that is usually the type of valve it is. They can be manually controlled with a lever or electronically with a coil that shifts the spool valve.

GWSmith Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 (edited) Hello everyone.... My first post here, but I see many familiar faces (0: Just opened this beast last night... The Korg Kronos X Since I play professionally, and my Korg Triton has been on the road some 11 years now, it was time for an update ... This one is the 73 note version with piano action keyboard. The photo shows it only moments after being removed from the box... This workstation is recognized as the top model across all brands ! Price was so good, I could not ignore the deal a pro audio/music store in NYC was offering... Hopefully it will be integrated into the keyboard rig by our season opening show in April ;0) .......gw Edited February 5, 2015 by Tigerman 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Top Notch Gary! My father-in-law recently gave us a klavinova he had in storage. He used to teach piano years ago and would like to start teaching our girls as they get older - No room for a piano in our house, but this fits in a small space and has a nice piano action keyboard on it so they can practice at home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JL Sargent Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 If it didn't have a spool, I couldn't see how you would control the hydraulic function. His tractor has a open center hydraulic system so hyd pressure is always on the backhoe or log splitter, etc. This type hydraulic system allows for "daisy chaining" the implements as each valve has a POWER BEYOND port. The control happens with each implement as needed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWSmith Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Thanks everyone..... Yes, the Korg is one of the top Asian brands. I have had their synthesizers since 1976 !! I could not afford a Mini MOOG back in the day, but the Korg offered something similar for almost half the cost.... I have been pretty loyal to the brand ever since ;0) and that as you see continues today.... Michael, the Yamaha Clavinova has been around for years.... I tuned pianos for a Yamaha dealer and the were always a great digital piano with some extra voices as well.... Good luck with it and keep me posted on the lessons progress.... .......Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JL Sargent Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I have a Yamaha Clavinova with some bad keys. I just moved them to the extremes on each end. Problem mostly solved with my limited ability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Mail lady dropped this off this morning. Down's latest album, a second to a five part series. Some of sounds as if it were to be a Black Sabbath song. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiet_Hollow Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 These arrived in the mail yesterday. Sometimes it's about the details. At the recommendation of this article: http://www.padrick.net/Hi-Fi/Hi-FiTips.htm ...and after reading many other positive reviews, I placed an order for a pile of these Deltron banana connectors. I got the nickel ones because I always use DeoxIT. Eventually I'll hook them up with with some Harbour Industries Mil-spec wire and make some twisted pairs so Russ can get off my back about my current lamp-cord wiring situation. True to many other reviews, the solder pockets are huge and they fit insanely tight in every socket I've tried them in. Also ordered a pair of Pomona phono/banana jacks. Expensive little suckers. In combination with a couple of Y-cables, I'll be able to either conveniently measure the power of a pre-amp output under load, or monitor the signal across a line-level input / output stage. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Gary, that's a really nice keyboard! I had a friend loan me his M1 for a while. My daughter I enjoyed having it. Finally had to give it back to him. Bruce 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What all are your plans to do with this, by the sounds you will be using it to control or run Audyssey Pro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
