💥 I hope eventually these manufacturers realize a third function should be standard equipment. The potential to make additional implement sales would increase.
*Keep on tractoring!* 👍
100% agree sir, thanks for watching!
That won't happen because they want to squeeze every penny out of you they can.
Hydraulic operating pallet forks? Oh wow- how convenient is that. Love it!
I know it, I can't wait to get them!
@@GoodWorksTractors do you have them in yet? How much are they I have a 30 hp tractor with third function
Thank You for this video. It should show a lot of people you can use a 1025r for a lot of things but after seeing this they might go with a 2 or 3 series just not because of the hydro flow but the weight of some of the things you can put on the tractor. Keep up the great work and info, always fun to watch.
100% agree Curt. Thanks for watching!
Exceptional tutorial! Professionally and succinctly demonstrate what John Deere owners (like me) need to know. Many thanks - also love those rear-views!
This video is exactly the information I was looking for.
One thing you should probably mention is there is a potentially big downside to going with a diverter to control a grapple (and possibly other attachments too) instead of a true 3rd function.
My brother in-law's grapple always seems to loosen every time the grapple is moved in any way, including when the curl function is used. Unfortunately he has a diverter kit and diverts the curl function to operate the grapple. The issue with the curl is you need to use it to manipulate the load into a trailer/truck and with the grapple loosening, you end up dropping the load. He says this is VERY frustrating.
Tractor Time With Tim also mentions you often need to apply constant grapple closing pressure when manipulating the load, including curl and that is true with my brother in-law's grapple.
He wishes he had known this before buying the diverter kit. Compared to a true 3rd function kit where you can always apply closing pressure while doing any other movement, he only saved something like $50.
He says if he was to do it again he would definitely pay the extra ~$50 and get a 3rd function instead.
I'm starting to plan adding a grapple to my new to me 2018 1025R so I'll be adding a 3rd function (most likely along with a 4th function at the same time for future accessories).
That could be a couple of different issues. The cylinder can be bypassing inside allowing it to open or the valve can have leakage allowing the oil to backfeed as a couple quick examples. If the cylinder tests fine you can install a cheap pilot operated check valve and that will solve your issues. If you are unsure about them or how they work look at this 3 min video.( I have no affiliation or connection in any way) just looking to help. I typed pilot operated check valve in UA-cam to find it.

Most smaller tractors with a loader sold in Australia have the third function as standard equipment.
We have dug hundreds of holes for our orchard with a hydraulically powered auger. However we hire a mini loader that came with the driver & auger. Digging holes out the front is the way to go.
Good info, thanks Karl!
When I had my garage built next to my house. I knew which auger I was going to buy. Now all my attachments are in my large garage. Aka metal frame barn. I measured the diameter of the auger, and then found a pvc pipe to fit around the auger. So when they poured my garage floor I already drilled out a hole and then stuck the thick PVC pipe into the hole. Now my auger is stored so it does not stick up so high. It's in that PVC pipe in the ground in my garage. Every attachment has its own spot marked off with yellow paint. Plus after I'm done using a attachment I pressure wash all the dirt off and wipe off the extra water before it's put into place. My dad told me this when I was a young boy. If you take care of your equipment, your equipment will last so much longer. But none of my attachments never failed me. Like when I need firewood for my fireplaces or my smoker, I grab my cansaw and the fuel, with the wrench. Then place it in the back of my Argo, into the woods and cut down a few oak trees. Then I trim off the branches and cut the trees into sections. Then I take my saw back to the house and connect my Argo trailer and fill it up with the logs. Then drive back and get my spitter and split all my logs. After that I stack some in my basement, or in the garage or on my back patio. Yes it takes a full day, but I enjoy working outside. I'm thinking about buying a small conveyor belt so I can use that to put my logs on my back patio, since it sits up real high, no more lifting those prices up so high. My back door to my basement is wide enough for me to drive my argo into the basement to stack my wood. Everything now is off the floor in my basement, washer, drier, both chest freezers and my wood racks. The wood gets seasoned so much quicker in the basement so I can use my smoker more often. Plus it keeps my kitchen clean, except for a few plates and silverware
Tight setup bro 👌🏼
I’m not there yet with indoor implement storage or cleaning. I palletized my implements and materials but really have too much. One of the biggest hassles was the three point post drill pallet I built. Wish I thought I knew it’s place well enough to give it a reserved parking slip.
Well played
I bought the Summit kit a couple weeks ago and put it on my 1023e. Very easy to do yourself and saved me about $600 from my John Deere dealer but I forgot to use the code when I ordered it because I was so excited to get it ordered!
Haha, well I like to generate excitement, but now it's going too far! I'm clearly going to have to dial it back a bit! 😂
Toys, Toys, soooo many Toys! Thanks for sharing!
Haha, thanks for watching Joseph!
I'm trying to decide if it would be heaper to pay a divorce lawer or to uprade my tractor. After watching several of your videos, I see there are several upgrades I desperately need. Lots of need and no money. Your videos are fun to watch and informative. I,ll probably save a few $$$ by not making mistakes in the future. Thanks.
Very informative and to the point. You're videos and editing has gotten much much better recently. Nice work.
Thanks for noticing! I've hired a full time position simply to shoot, edit and publish videos. I simply didn't have the time to do it myself anymore.
RETIRED 76, AF VET. 20 YEARS AGO I HAD THIRD FUNCTION AND CURRENT L4701 HAS IT. I LIKE USING DEMOLITION GRAPPLE BUCKET FOR PICKING UP AND MOVING GRASS AND LEAVES.
Love your videos, Since TTWT went big, your the first videos I watch. Keep it up.
I'm always learning from your work. Thanks!
Thanks Liff!
Excluding deer and Kubota 99% of tractors I saw in Australia when I was looking had a diverter and 4 in 1 bucket standard and probably 70%had 1 or more rear remotes the cheaper guys are ahead of the big guys here
Very cool, that would be nice to be standard!
Thinking about a set of hoses so I can use my third function to control my trim so I have both tilt and trim. Thanks for the suggestions.
Thanks for watching!
One my favorite options I ever added to my tractor is Hydraulic sliding fork tines! You will wonder how you survived with out it!
Woo-hoo! I need one of these Summit diverter kits.
😎🤩👍
Be aware that hydraulically driven post hole augers require a tractor with a significant amount of hydraulic flow capacity. Realistically, 10 GPM min, and the more flow the better. TTWT tested a SSQA model on his 5075E rated at 17.5 GPM and it was barely up to the job. That said, hydraulically driven augers have the huge advantage of being reversible so the can unscrew themselves out of a hole if needed. Augers on the FEL do have the additional advantage of using downforce from the FEL to dig in hard ground. Finally, you can get 3PH mounted augers with reversible hydraulic motors (some with a downforce option).
Great info, thanks Brad!
So basically skid steers?
I use a Danhauser one made for lower flow machines for use with my Kubota MX (14.4 gpm. 9.5 for pump flow). Work well enough…better than screwing around with a PTO driven one. Doesn’t spin quit fast enough to fling heavy clay when you raise it but a few shakes of the FEL clears it off good enough. If it had a couple more GPM, it would clean with just the spin.
Front loader mounted augers are amazing compared to the 3pt ones. I would highly recommend it
Looking to get a bypass switch for my 3 point grapple,very helpful video
Great group of videos lately, keep up the good work.
Thank you sir!
love your ironclad gloves, the best ranch gloves
Very informative video! Thanks for sharing!
Interesting , Thank You . So many things to think about
This video makes me want to change careers and become a tractor salesman just so I can play with all the neat attachments.
Haha, careful what you wish for! I spend 90% of my time planted in a chair behind a computer screen. Thanks for watching!
@@GoodWorksTractors You'll need to watch it if you spend that much time behind a computer screen. If you are using a standard rectangular QUERTY keyboard, it will eventually cause an issue with your wrists nerves or carpal tunnel syndrome. Easy resolution is to replace that keyboard with an ergonomic keyboard which allows you to have the correct angle for your arms-wrists-hands to avoid nerve damage. One model is the Microsoft keyboard 4000 or a Logitech model like it. (I have the 4000). I studied ergonomics since I used to do time & motion studies as well as efficiency studies in warehouses, supply operations, and production operations. I'm now retired and very happy not to ever need to go back into a plant.
Very good information about tractor equipment thanks for great information on this video
Glad you enjoyed, thanks!
Question: It seems the hydraulic pump in many compact tractors has a rather limited flow rate. How will a 3rd or 4th function affect the use of the 1st and 2nd functions? That is, would I have less lift capacity if I'm using the new 3rd function at the same time I'm trying to, say, lift and curl?
Good question. Yes, you'll see longer cycle times when using two functions at one time on these smaller subcompacts and compact tractors. Some tractor manufacturers and series will be affected more than others. I haven't found a real rhyme or reason to it.
@@GoodWorksTractors Would it be possible to install a better/bigger hydraulic pump to remedy this?
@@joshk.4470 that depends. You need to find one that will couple. If that is an issue you can have a machinist make and balance one. Then you have to consider what the relief capacity of the existing hydraulic system is compared to the new pump. Then you have to be aware of hyd pump demand and the horsepower of your tractor. A pump too large can stall the engine before the speed droop allows the torque curve to handle the load. Personally I would recommend someone with training and knowledge to assist and help. Especially as it can be extremely expensive with failed hyd components
Tree wrapper that pulls the branches in tight for shipping especially conifers.
The front mount rotary brush is pretty handy.

GOOD INFO THANK U
Extra hydraulics on the front of the tractor, often controlled with a button on the bucket stick, are commonly called a 3rd function. But a third function and a diverter valve are different. A diverter valve disables one function in favor of another. A true 3rd function add another circuit.
Extra hydraulics on the rear, often controlled with a slide lever next to the seat are called “rear remotes”.
Correct. However, John Deere's standard 3rd function terminates on the back side of the tractor as shown on my John Deere 4066r. If you want the "grapple kit", then this includes soft lines, another set of couplers, and then hard lines which then terminate near the front end of the loader.
Be Aware! I purchased a true 3rd function valve kit from John Deere for my 1025R. My 1025R is equipped with a drive-over mower. The John Deere valve could not be mounted because the mounting bracket for the mower interfered with the installation. I ended up returning the kit and purchasing a diverter valve kit from Artillian.
3pt auger is a pain!! Front loader mount is the way to go!
When you were talking about your snow blower that's rear remotes.... Third function is a different animal..
The front mount power rake and a brush clipper also use the third function
A/C used to be an option on cars, now its a standard item...won't be long before 3rd function is standard too.
Yeah could be right
My 4210 has a belly mounted mower. It required a third scv to raise and lower the mower.
I was I had been offered this option when I bought!!
I have a 1025R with 60 hours.
The housing on the rear end has a couple of leaks on the actual housing cracked not a seal with a repair cost of almost $5000 at dealer. Is this a common problem or did I just get lucky. This machine is only used by me and has never been abused. Just curious if any other people had this problem. Thanks
Seen that from improper length of shaft. Once you go up a trailer it will bust it. Maybe using a tiller and went up a steep hill or brush hog?
Tractor time with Tim has it on film how they bust.
Did you get it fixed or repair it yourself?
A piece of advice I heard early on in researching tractors that made a lot of sense was to order every available factory hydraulic option.
Surprised nobody makes (at least haven't seen) forks with side shift (would req. 3rd function) like on my forklift (I wouldn't buy one w/o). That would be handier for most than the forks you showed.
I'm planing to purchase a Bobcat 4045 with the 3rd function. What size grappler would you recommend? Thanks
All your videos are very informative 👌
Have you ever seen anyone setup a Post pounder to a tractor loader ??
I haven't, only seen on the three point.
Keep up the great work!!
What's your opinion on using an auto dual laser system with a top and tilt box blade? Possible?
Thanks!
Thank you sir!
I see he is wearing an American Giant sweatshirt, the best ever!
It is one of my faves
Very helpful
Great vid .. do you accept gwt on your tractors 🚜
Haha, negative ghost rider!
I have a john deer 5105. summit says they do not make a 3 function kit specific for my model.
Got mine installed from Kubota factory. Wasn't much for the option. JD should have it as an option for sure?
At 1:05 you show a mounting bracket for the hoses on the front end loader frame. Where can I get one one.
Came with the Summit Diverter kit
I BOUGHT A NEW 1025R in 2013 and have a rear frontier 48" snowblower and front end H120 loader they told me even though I have the hydraulic shoot for rotation they told me there wasnt anything available for moving the shoot up and down so I HAVE to do it manualy
Do you have a recommendation for a hydraulic top link? And, would you use the same for the side cylinder?
Currently... Fit Rite Hydraulics
@@GoodWorksTractors Thank you - love the videos and always great info...much appreciated!
Not very common but, a three point cement mixer also uses a third function on the back.
Any info on heat housers for compact open station tractors. I have a 2000 John Deere 4400.
Curtis, Cozy, Original, Tektite, Mauser, Seizmik, Sims, Agrital
Tree shear and hydraulic pole saw also require 3rd function.
Good ones, thanks!
What does a hydraulic pole saw look like?
@@kdegraa Do a search for limbinator
I don’t even have a 2nd function! Just have one for my front loader!🧐
Lol, well you've got the 1st and 2nd if you've got a loader!
@@GoodWorksTractors do I? Just 2 lines going to the front, 1990 Massey, thanks!
Oh, haha! Trip bucket?
@@GoodWorksTractors 🤷
@@GoodWorksTractors I do have lift and curl but only two lines that split off for the curl I guess!
Do you need a 3rd or more function when using a post driver? Whether it's a rear 3 point unit or front attachment?
Good Morning!!
Good Morning sir! Get some plowing in recently?
@@GoodWorksTractors 🚜 doing Awesome!
I would love to have a 3rd function hydralic kit for the front loader of my JD 1025R. I want to add an a nice set of grapples to use. . . . . .so 3rd function/diverter kit. . . .which is best to use??? Also, im still looking for a rear, 3-point mounted rotor tiller. . . 5ft wide.
Do you have the summit kit installed on a 3032e tractor? I have an Artillian kit on both my 2025r and 3032e, and the performance on the E series tractors is dismal at best. I have been blaming the regenerative hydraulic design, sometimes you can get the tool to travel in one direction, but not the other. It’s frustrating. Any experience on this model with diverts?
Where did you source those awesome side mirrors from? I need them big time, for my 1026r
I have them for sale. Shoot me an email. Currently, $32 each shipped within 900 miles of 49009.
@@GoodWorksTractors I’d also like to hear what your option would be, to add power angling to the Deere quick mount plow, which I have on my 1026r
I have a question does the 2025r have the The valve on the back so I can use a rear snowblower and hydraulics for up and down on the deflector would that come with it new or is that an ad option
You kinda sound like the salesman that keeps popping up in Family guy everywhere lol
Is a multi function valve the same thing as a multipler
How much do those flail ditch bank mowers run?
Depends. $4-$9000
It’s probably been asked but can you use consecutive code discounts? Like from two people?
I don't combine discounts unfortunately
@@GoodWorksTractors do the others that you know of like TTWT discount plus yours?
I would doubt it
Darn 10% would be like taxes taken care of would be nice if they would buy anything better than nothing

John Deere lawn and garden tractors the past 7 years have been nothing more than overrated overpriced garbage 2019 Craftsman made a huge comeback with their T240 T260 and T310 turn tight series Tractors the T240 and T260 are a cross between a Lawn/Garden tractor according to a craftsman Rep the T310 is a full garden tractor all three tractors are built incredibly well and they are heavy all three come with the Kohler 7000 series Engines these Engines are designed after the Kohler Command Pro commercial Engines and their transmissions hydrostatic have steel gears and serviceable with out any doubt the Craftsman Turn tight series are the very best in 2021
