I've got a 1949 Farmall M with a dual loader that runs off the M&W live pump, this tractor also has a Saginaw 3 Pt. that runs off the belly pump.

I'm wondering if I can leave everthing "as is" and still rig it up to run a 510 JD round baler, and a PT-10 Hesston moco?
Any thoughts on rigging up 2 more sets of remotes (for the baler), with what I have on this tractor?

I've thought about using a couple of pieces of angle iron to block the cylinders up on the loader and using the live pump to run the baler, but I'm in doubt if the M&W pump will have the capacity to run the baler (even if I add an additional tank for fluid), the Dual's fluid tank is in the loader's frame.

What'cha think,... any ideas, or am I trying to get too much out of this old tractor?
 
If you are hooked up to let the pump use the loader fluid tank, you would have enough reservoir to run almost anything so long as you leave the loader frame on the tractor and that reservoir hooked up.

You could run the output line from the current control vale into the input of a new valve and the output from the new valve back to the reservoir. I don't know if you'd have enough pressure to run the baler or MOCO but you'd have adequate fluid.
 
How difficult is it to drop the loader arms and cylinders off.... I take it, it is not a quik-attach loader? If it's not too much trouble, you could use the pump, valves and reservoir from the loader frame to operate a lot of things by plumbing quick disconnects to the rear of the tractor. May not be the handiest of situations, but hey, you are taking a 60 year old tractor and trying to do today's work. I'd sure want a LPTO tractor on the baler too.
