Purchased this tractor about 2 weeks ago and I love it so far! Hoping to have a 3rd function installed in the near future. Keep up the good work, enjoying the videos!
Suggest you purchase a true 3rd function instead of the Branson that diverts instead of allowing you say to open and dump at the same time if running a grapple.
A careless dealer can destroy the reputation of any brand. I mean, it would take them 2 seconds to look at the third function after they installed it to see if everything was right. The wire in the previous video was a mess. Now the fittings hitting the that grille protecting frame. Anyways, great videos. Greetings from Portugal.
You are correct about bad dealers. But this had nothing to do with my dealer this was installed before it shipped to my dealer. This is Branson's design. I hope they will change this design soon. It wouldn't take much. Don't misunderstand, I would definitely buy this tractor again.
@@bransontractoradventure2387 My bad then. 90% of the times, third functions are installed on the dealers. Same for block heaters, extra remotes in the back or just different tires.
You can get different 3rd function valve from a dealer, Branson 3rd function valves are garbage, you can't shake your bucket if you want to get a stone bucket
Branson junk...I own one and hate to sell it to someone!!! Engine blew at 300 hrs! It was in shop for 2 months. Got it back and now 3rd valve not working but was when I delivered to them!!! I'm not a happy camper!!! I bought a tractor because I need a tractor!!! I have owned 5 tractors in my life and branson has been the worst!!!
Have you had any issues with the Branson? how could they have not seen that if they ever installed one. Did they just design the part and never install it to see if it works?
I have!!! At 300hrs they had to put a new engine in my 3015r. They said head bolts had bolts were not torqued to specs and blew head gasket and done some other damage???? Dealer had my tractor for 2 months!!! When I got tractor back everything seemed to work OK until I put my clamps shell grapple on and 3rd valve didn't work. I got to looking and they didn't even have hydraulic lines hooked up to valve. I hooked them up and nothing??? Not sure what they did. I'm 2 hrs from nearest dealer!!! I would not recommend a branson!!!! Tractor junk and service is junk!!!! Just my experience!!!
Loosen the fittings and roll them?
How did it work out? I'm still trying to figure out what all these hydraulic lines are.

All you have to do is turn the two tees vertical and problem solved.
I have same tractor with 3rd function.. What style coupler pioneer or flat and size are they looking to buy grapple.

I haven't decided I need a 3rd function yet.
If I do add it, I'll remember your changes to the installation.
Nice looking Tractor!
