Adding MT Remote Valve

[TXZane]

I bought a loader for my MT earlier this summer. the guy i bought it from told me were to tap into the hydraulics to add a remote but now i cant remember where he said. I know that he said the lines dont need to be cut. just need to take out some plugs on the touch-o-matic and and add lines to a valve. Does anybody have any pictures or know the locations that work? i really dont want to cut my steel lines. Thanks.

I don't know if you can tell much from these pictures or not. Somebody asked a year or so ago and I went and took some pictures of how I did it on a neighbor's tractor a few decades ago. I think I have the return hose from the valve running to the steel line toward the front in the first picture. It's running under the seat and behind the levers in front of the seat.

As you are sitting on the tractor there is two plugs you can use to work the loader on the right side of the housing. One is down low on the side up front the other is up and back some times under the seat if the seat is forward. If the mt has the lift arms on the back you will need to put the two side pins to lock the hich arms from coming up. Then you can use the leaver on the touch o ma tic to lift the plow up front.

That's how this Mt is hooked up but I ran the return line from the control valve to the plug that 1/2 inch to return the oil. If you don't have a control valve if you hook up the line from the loader cylendars to that where you have the control valve you can run the loader with the ones the tractor has.

This 1/2 or 3/8 plug is in the back of the tractor housing hydraulic for the return of that control valve
