I'm interested in installing remote hydraulics on my L3000DT. It has power steering and a LA450S loader.
I want to use the remote for a hydraulic toplink among other things. The user and service manuals have been only a little helpful to me. I have some knowledge of hydraulic theory and little hands-on experience. I have a couple of questions. 1. Is the L3000DT an open-center or closed-center system? 2. There are three hoses running from the 3-point hydraulics at the rear to the loader control valve. The pressure and return hoses I understand, but why is there a power-beyond hose as well? 3. Can I just T-off of the pressure and return fittings at the loader control valve to run remote hydraulics or do I need to do something with the power-beyond as well?
Thanks,
Mike

Your tractor is an open center system. The 3-point hydraulics are not external to the tractor(the hydrauics that actuate the 3-point lift, so you wouldn't see hoses. are you describing a remote system that is already on the tractor?
The best way to run a remote circuit is from a power beyond port on either an existing valve or the hydraulic block on the tractor. All four way spool valves require 4 ports to operate. In - out - and two pressure work ports. With an open ceter system, you need to make sure you don't dead-head the pump, or use exhaust flow to try to run a circuit.
Take a look at our pics. The remote system on this tractor is run off the FEL PB. The plugs and hoses are all run under the tractor, and up along the drivetrain.
If you can describe exactly where the 3-hoses that come from the back of the tractor are that you were describing, I'm sure we could figure out a circuit that would work for you.
