         My fel valve is up front. I've got a hydraulic top link on one remote and use the other for log splitter or backhoe attachment.  I mounted a barrel lock on the one remote to lock it on full time when needed. The hydraulic top link is the best inexpensive piece of equipment I've purchased. It makes hook-ups easy and can adjust everything on the fly. I bought the one with the valve to prevent drift. I got everything complete including shipping for $265.00 from Agri-Supply.

          I just got home from work and saw your new post. I checked my book and mine is labeled right. If you can recieve a fax send the number to yocsr@live.com and I'll fax these pages to you. The starter relays go bad. I've had to replace mine. In a pinch you can remove the cover and manually engage the relay. I did that until I recieved the new one. I've had trouble with connectors losing contact, there's even one on the lead from alt. to battery. Unplugging and replugging won't establish a connection. I spray them with CRC electrical cleaner and that seems to work.

          I just saw your post and am ready to leave for work. I have 404 so when I get up tomorrow I'll check it and let you know as this might be something I need to keep an eye on. I won't be up until 11 or 12 so it will be after that.

               I've got a 40 hp and 1700 to 1800 gives me good mower speed with the brush hog and finish mower. I found general work, box blade and things of that nature 1500 to 1600 is plenty.

                 I usually change the oil and filter once a year.

                   Actually it makes sense, the procedure you described transfers flow from the lift cylinder to the outlet on the left side. This is were you'll hook your pressure line. My only question would be where you hook your return line to?? There has to be another outlet for that. It will work.

                     I looked it up. I have had some instances where I could have used one. My drive at the lake was put in running the length on a slope and to grade the rock back up on the north side I have to turn the turn buckles all the way up on one side and all the way down on the other to get the angle. I keep the threads lube with antisieze so they turn easy. I'll have to put it on my wish list. The other day my neighbor had a large pine come down and when I went over to haul it home for camp fire wood he'd cut it all 6″” to long to fit in my bucket. I kept thinking of Tin's pictures of the bucket forks. My wishlist doesn't seem to get shorter!

                       You got me on that one. I've never heard of a hydraulic tilt link. I'm going to have to look it up.

                         Alright – good for you! Sure beats a walk behind. Mine's a forward tine but I have the option to change it to reverse tine. According to the book the gear box can be rotated to make it reverse tine. We'll see how it goes the way it is before trying to change it.

                           The neighbor asked me to till an area where he took some old pines out. Jumped at the chance to try it out!!!
