New Holland TC45d Hydraulic Adapter Plate questions

[skinnr]

I am carrying this over from the New Holland forum. I have a NH TC45d that I purchased in a few pieces but that is another post. I have been running it now for a few years and need to add a rear remote. I have a Bradco backhoe that I use on it and get my power from the Power Beyond on my loader valve. Works just fine. With my box of pieces came this adapter plate that I never did install. It is suppose to mount on the side of the 3 point lift and is looks like a way to get flow directly off the lift to supply the backhoe or another attachmant. My question is where do the three ports go? They are labled P , R, and T. Rather than replumb the backhoe I want to add a few valves back there for "rear remotes" but not sure which is which. Captain Obvious tells me P is pressure, R is return and T may be tank. But wouldn't tank and return be the same? Kinda stuck and looking for ideas. Thanks

OK I figured it out. The local tractor mechanic is familiar with this part and set up. P= Pressure to the spool valve. R= return from the spool valve. T=tank/ plumb it out from the block and go back to the tank for an overflow situation. He said that landscapers use this set up alot to power up a set of valves to run specialty equipment for fine adjustments for grading/ slope etc. He said it is an acceptable workaround for rear remotes and allows for finer adjustments. I'll let everyone know how it works out.
