In order to get down pressure, you need to have two way hydraulics. You can do that on your H by plumbing one of the outlet ports to a two way hyd spool that you can buy at your local farm store or ordered from a catalog, sometimes called a log splitter valve ( Northern Hydraulics). From that spool you run two lines to your cylinder, one to the rod end and one to the base end. You also have to run a return line from the spool to the hydraulic resevoir. Most people just plumb that into the top where you would fill the hyd system. As long as you are at it, you could put 2, 3 or more spools on so you have more than one hydraulic remote valve. You also have to lock the original hydraulic control rod in the "on" position. This isn"t as bad as it sounds and is a nice upgrade if you have need of hydraulics. However, if you"re only using it for the three point hitch, I wouldn"t bother. Just run the line from the cylinders to one of the hydraulic ports on the pump. On the other hand, the other thing that"s nice about having two way hyd is that the hitch won"t float when you don"t want it to, like pulling a wagon downhill- the wagon will push the hitch all the way to the top. That could be scary! Paul
