Please help ID this hydraulic setup.
Appears to be a tip/tilt setup, but I'd like to find out more info and find an operator's/owners manual.
Both cylinders say Gannon/Woods, but I cannot make out the model #s and all the info on the controls is not legible.
Thanks!

It appears to be a 3 spool (1 unused) hydraulic valve used for top and tilt. Longer distance pictures of the cylinders would be helpful. Gannon suggests it was used with a Gannon box blade/scraper

Thats an old Gannon TnT setup, good luck finding a manual.
I'm wondering what information the OP needs from the manual, even if one could be found.

I was looking for general information. The original owners took the box scraper.
What was odd at first glance is that the hydraulic "feed" line is inserted where you fill hydraulic fluid and looks like it just unscrews so that I can add hyd. fluid.
Namely, what do I need to use this? Quick hitch? Does it need to be Woods/Gannon?

Thanks All!

I doubt the "feed" line goes tk the hydraulic filler. That would most likely be the "tank" line.

You should also have a P line for presdure and a power beyond line for high presdure carry over.

You appear to have have 4 hoses for the cylinders and three that connect to the tractor. Post some pictures of the three tractor connections.

Just to give you a bit more information (which is what you say you are seeking):

The four hoses marked in yellow are the two pairs of cylinder hoses. (It seems curious that one takes off across the rear of the tractor but it may just be that is how they ran a too long hose.)
The hose in red is the power in hose from the tractor block, fed from the pump.
The hose in blue is Power Beyond (PB) (also called High Pressure Carry Over) and is connected to a power beyond sleeve in the valve. That sleeve protects the valve from damage from downstream pressure. That line passes flow and pressure back to the tractor block and downstream valves.
The hose is green is the Tank return hose line that allows the low pressure fluid from the cylinder to return to the sump.

The top and tilt cylinders will be double acting cylinders where the valve activity feeds fluid to one side of the cylinder that builds up pressure and novel the rod. The rod piston moves and displaces the fluid in the other side of the cylinder that goes back to the valve and is then dumped back into the tractor (in your case through one of the transmission fill ports).
