Re: 2 spool double acting hydraulic valve

Thanks Sandy - sorry for late reply. I was going to send a photo of the top control unit but can't see where to upload. The top control unit has a unusual fitting screwed into the housing, forward facing and looks like a male push fit connector but this may just be a bodge from a previous life. I on...

2 spool double acting hydraulic valve

Hello does anyone know how and where to connect up a double acting spool valve block as I want to use the Super Dexta this year to operate a Browns 56 bale carrier? Pictures or diagram would be good. Thanks.

Re: Super Dexta Hydraulic Adjustment - help please

OK so all sorted now. Spring I ordered still not arrived so I cut down a draft control spring to 10.5 coils and fitted that.

Re: Super Dexta Hydraulic Adjustment - help please

Yes thanks for that, worth a try. Spring not arrived yet. I'm replacing hydraulic arm piston seal, there was only one to remove. Parts supplier sent two, one seal and a back up seal but there isn't enough width in the slot on the piston to get both in. Do you know if there should be a back up seal f...

Re: Super Dexta Hydraulic Adjustment - help please

I've measured diameter of coils and ordered from a spring supplier a spring with 10 coils and 50mm long. Worth a try.

Re: Super Dexta Hydraulic Adjustment - help please

Thanks. I would renew the position control spring but no one Ive found sells them. Local dealer says not available anymore. Plenty of draft control springs though.

Super Dexta Hydraulic Adjustment - help please

My Dexta wouldn't lift the arm up beyond halfway so I renewed the pivot pin which had worn almost through. I reassembled everything without altering the adjustments. I then found that although it lifted a little more it still wasn't fully lifting the arms. I've now taken it apart again and have chec...
