I need to pick some Deere/Hitachi brains, I'm plumbing a grapple rotate circuit on a Hitachi EX150-5. For what ever reason they decided to put the pilot pump inside the pump bell housing on these models so I can't use a tandem pilot pump. I'm currently plumbed into one of the test ports and it rotates OK but when you stroke any other function it spins way to fast. I looking for different ideas so when I hit the trigger it strokes the pumps, the solenoid valve has a relief built into it so I should be OK with full system pressure to it. Looking for different ideas, what others have done. TIA
