On one of my 420's, all three levers are in use. One lifts the snowblower, one lifts the 3 point hitch, and one turns the snowblower chute. The 3 point hitch has a scraper blade attached.

If I wanted to make a hydraulic cylinder angle the scraper blade and control it from the seat, how would I do it?

Do a search on "electric tractor diverter valves". They are a 12v solenoid valves that redirect oil from one pair of your remote outlets to a second cylinder.

That is a good idea, I never would have thought of that. Thank you also.

Or convert your snowblower chute to an electric motor.

For a short time Aux Hydraulics offered a prototype H-4 that looked like this:

Looks like it would be a bit weird to use...

Ron,
We sell these at the dealer I work at.

I also asked the factory reps about them at Parts Expo this past year they have something that would work for our smaller machines. It will cost a bit but the hardest part would be running electrical if you use these.

Michael,

That is the best approach I've seen, and simplifies plumbing as much as possible. You and Dennis are on the right track to the most appropriate way to add on extra "spools." Thanks for that link...
