A front attachment control system includes a selective control valve controlled by a joystick in a utility vehicle operator station, a diverter valve connected to the selective control valve and having a diverter switch that switches the diverter valve between a first position for an attachment tilt function and a second position for an attachment angling function controlled by the joystick. A front attachment with an angling cylinder includes a pair of hydraulic lines connectable to the diverter valve, and an actuator that engages the diverter switch as the hydraulic lines are connected to the diverter valve to switch the diverter valve to the second position.
