It's not uncommon, as your farming practice grows, to add an implement that needs more remote hydraulic connections than your tractor has. If you purchased a 60 hp tractor with one set of remotes and then bought a pull type disc mower that has a cylinder to raise and lower the machine and another to fold it out to field position, you'd be in trouble. You could drive to the field with the hydraulic hoses plugged into the lines that connect to the folding cylinder, move the machine out to cut, then unplug the lines, plug in the other lines and lower the machine. Then you'd be ready to cut. To leave the field you would reverse the process. It would be cumbersome at best.

If you couldn't get a second set of remotes for your tractor from the local dealer, you might think you needed to trade tractors to remedy the problem. But, there is another solution and it'll work on any tractor that has at least one set of remotes, from a 30 hp compact to a 450 hp row crop tractor. It's called a hydraulic multiplier, and in this video I show you how it works.

I want to give full disclosure here, the company that makes this product employed me to do a video about it for their use, but it is a product that could save my viewers a bunch of money, so I decided to show it on my channel as well. If you'd like to order it, here's a link to Amazon where it is available: https://amzn.to/2tEELcW. I do want to give full disclosure here...if you order by clicking the link, I do get credit for the sale through the Amazon Influencer Program, and your purchase is greatly appreciated.

If you're new to tractors and need help understanding what remote hydraulics are and how they work, here are links to a couple of my videos that you should watch:
