I will soon be tackling the hydraulics on my 61 Super Major and I want to confirm that I will be able to run the external hydraulics I have
acquired for the tractor.
I have a front end loader setup with four dual acting cylinders and an external directional control valve, a dual acting PTO mounted wood
splitter, and a PTO mounted snowblower with dual acting cylinder for the chute.
I am not entirely sure how to plumb the system. I have two complete FSM 3pt hitch lift covers, hydraulic pumps, and external services
valves to work with for parts. What are the appropriate pressure and return ports on the tractor? I assume I will be able to switch back
and forth between the loader hydraulics and the chute hydraulics for snow removal purposes via the selector lever and/or the aux services
control knob but I am unable to find any literature on this.
Steiner Tractor parts (and others) also sell a Hydraulic Valve Adapter Kit to run external hydraulics and I am curious if this is
something I will need. I have attached a photo of the top cover on my parts tractor. It seems this has had external hydraulics plumbed at
some point in time.
Any help is appreciated.
