I had the factory rear remotes added to my 1835E, so my remotes are controlled by the levers next to the 3pt control. One of the remote lines has a valve in it that allows me to turn off flow and redirect it to the connectors I have on the front for a grapple. Not a as convenient as the 3rd function on the joystick, but it works. Been considering a multplier to add more remotes to the back. Haven't decided on the manual version or solenoid version like you have. Be interested to know where your switch box electrical connects to.
I traced it the best I could and it looks like they have just ran it straight to the battery with some type of relay or something. I haven’t got to use the third function yet due to the grapple having flat faced couplers. And the tilt and top links haven’t arrived yet. I mainly got the two remotes in the back because of the top and tilt. This setup came from the dealer like this. I don’t know if I’m going to like it better than just having levers. I will update once I can start using them and let you know how I like it.
I would like a deep dive into your remotes and how they are plumbed. I'm no expert but i'm thinking that looks aftermarket, not factory MF... I Just ordered the valves to add the remotes from MF and I know they get hydro from the right side just under the seat... Where are your hydros connected?? I'm guessing down by drivers right foot?
They hooked it up to where the third function and rear remotes work off the same box the best I can tell. I’m no expert at it. Where I got the two rears and the third function they went with a partner instead of mf parts. I think that the box and hoses day long on them.
Good looking tractor
Thanks!
Very nice looking tractor. Having the added hydraulic remotes for extra implements should be a lifesaver for you! I hope you enjoy working with it.
Thanks! I’m waiting on a hydraulic top link and tilt link. Will be a game changer.

@@ChestnutMountainHomestead Thanks for the feedback. I was used to the remote controls on the side from when I was a kid working on a farm
I had a kubota l2501 as my first tractor before this one. This is the first time I’ve had rear remotes, so I’m excited to give it a try!
Rear remotes with top and tilt are a game changer. Especially with a box blade.
Can’t wait to try them out
