YM2500 - Hydraulic Ports

Abee · Feb 2, 2004

Can someone identify these hydraulic ports and tell me how they are used? Also what is knob "D" used for. Is one port "high Pressure" and one "Return". If so could I add quick-connect couplers for add-on hydraulic equipment? See attached .BMP image. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif Thanks,

"A" can be used as an outlet port. The 3 poimt control lever will operate a single acting cylinder. To operate a double acting cylinder , the 3 point control lever will have to be up & a double acting control valve & a shut off will have to be installed with the "out" going to the rear end housing. When using the 3 point, the shut off will need to be closed. This isn't the way I'd recommend installing remotes.

"B" is a cap for the control valve guts.
"C" is the cap for the piston relief valve.
"D" is the 3 point position lock.
