Abstract: A dual mode control system for a work vehicle includes a hydraulic system configured to drive a loader assembly and a dozer assembly coupled to the work vehicle. The hydraulic system includes a fluid delivery system comprising a plurality of flow paths fluidly coupled to a hydraulic pump. The hydraulic system includes a valve assembly configured to regulate diversion of fluid into a first and a second hydraulic cylinders coupled to the fluid delivery system to adjust the loader assembly, or into a third cylinder coupled to the fluid delivery system to adjust the dozer assembly. The dual mode control system also includes a controller operably coupled to the valve assembly, and one or more user interfaces coupled to the controller to enable an operator to provide inputs to cause the controller to adjust the valve assembly, and to thereby adjust the loader assembly or the dozer assembly.

Abstract: A connection system for coupling an implement to a work vehicle includes a receiver assembly of the implement configured to couple the implement to a connector assembly of an arm of the work vehicle. The connection system also includes a frame of the implement including a first end having a mounting portion and a second end coupled to a mounting assembly of the implement. The mounting portion of the frame of the implement is configured to couple the implement directly to a frame of the work vehicle. Additionally, the receiver assembly is directly coupled to the frame of the implement between the first end of the frame of the implement and the second end of the frame of the implement.
