Dual action cylinder hook-up

Anonymous-0 · Jul 6, 2008

I have a Farmall M with the Lift-All (belly pump) and a Lift-All selective lift control that bolts to the steering post. I recently purchased a 3 pt hitch with a dual action cylinder. Will the selective lift control allow me to use the dual action cylinder? If yes, do I run the oil return from the lower outlet of the selective lift control back to the pump? I have a pipe connector at the oil filler/breather cap.

I'm pretty the selective control still only allows one-way cylinder operation. You can operate the three point cylinder in one-way mode, just put a vented plug in the top port of the cylinder.

It is possible to do.
Use a open center spool valve for two way. Connect the return line to a "T" in the drain plug of the Liftall, not the top. Putting it in the top will spew oil from the vented cap.
Pull the main control lever back, and wire or fasten it in that position. I do not know the answer to the valve you have, but I think it allows for two different one way cylinders. (I may be wrong on that) JimN

Thanks to all who responded. I will go with the vent cap and use only the single action cylinder.
