Mahindra 6500 hydraulics

I have a 2007 Mahindra 6500 4WD with FEL. It has 4 hydraulic connectors in the rear. I am trying to make my log splitter work on it, it is a homemade vertical hydraulic splitter with a regular hydraulic log splitter valve. It has been working fine on my 1973 IH 464. However, when I plug it into the Mahindra, I can't get it to work. One problem is the Mahindra valve won't stay open to allow flow to the splitter, and when I hold it in place the relief valves trips. I see a plug in a port on the back of the Mahindra hydraulic valve assembly, I wonder if that would help me get flow to the splitter without tripping the relief valve. Can anyone offer any insight on this? Thanks, Doug

My 6520 has an arm to hold the remote open for my backhoe. I have never tripped my relief valve on the tractor. Could be a bad relief valve tripping early.

I finally figured out what was going on. I had to wire one of the valve handles back, and it also helps when plugged into the right outlets
