Operating the Selective Control Valve Levers

The selective control valve levers have four positions:

  • Extend (B)

    BM018505
    BM018505-UN-01DEC16

    A - Retract Position

    B - Extend Position

    C - Neutral Position

    D - Float Position

    E - Fast Forward Position


  • Neutral (C)
  • Retract (A)
  • Float (D) or Fast Forward (E)
  1. To extend the remote cylinder, move selective control valve lever to Extend position (B).

  2. To hold the remote cylinder in its position, move selective control valve lever to Neutral position (C).

  3. To retract the remote cylinder, move selective control valve lever to Retract position (A).

  4. To allow the remote cylinder to move freely, move the selective control lever to Float position (D).

  5. To engage fast forward system, push valve lever to Fast Forward position (E).

    Use this function to clean the bucket of a front loader (if equipped).

    After unloading, in order to eliminate remaining debris from the bucket, hold SCV lever in Retract position, then move to Fast Forward position to cause an abrupt inversion.

    Fast Forward function only is available on 5078E Tractors (from serial number 4011013-), 5085E Tractors (from serial number 4003352-) and 5090E Tractors (from serial number 4001622-).

  6. To retract the single action cylinders, move Selective Control Valve lever to Float position (D).

If external valves are used, move Selective Control Valve lever to Neutral position (C) before shutting off each hydraulic function.
