You use that block but not with a tee. Its simple plumbing but to provide specifics I need to know what hose connections are currently on the hoe.

See this thread for the adapter block that replaces the cover on the block under the seat. Post #1 has a good diagram showing how the flow path is diverted by the adapter. It really doesn’t change the flow path, just sends it to the backhoe before going back to the same point on the tractor.

Back in stock. CDN$40 plus actual shipping These are obsolete and no longer available. I have recently been contacted by a member asking if I will make him one of these after reading how I made mine. I know this comes up from time to time and would like to gauge the interest others might have...

See post #16 in the thread below for how this is routed on my L185F to a rear remote valve. Also note that your L245 probably has the same port on the transmission as the green fittings screw into for tank return.

My L245DT has aftermarket power steering..does not have a front end loader. The power steering cylinder is connected to the control valve below the left side of the seat via an aluminum block. How do I do this? Thanks for any help.

I recommend that you use port fittings (SAE or BSPP) and not NPT fittings. The port fittings seal much easier than NPT.

Thats not how you do it. You will need to purchase two female quick connects that match the male tips on your hoe. Then you install two new hoses for the hoe supply abd return.

1. One hose replaces the PB hose on your loader valve. It goes from the PB port on the Ioader valve to the rear and terminates in one of the new female couplers. This is the supply for your backhoe valve.
2. The second hose goes from the PB return port on the hydraulic outlet block to the rear and terminates with the male tip that is currently on the hoe return hose.
3. You need to put the second new female coupler on the return hose from the hoe.

When the hoe is not mounted you MUST loop the two tractor side hoses together.

When you mount the hoe you disconnect the two tractor side hoses and connect them to the matching quick connects on the hoe.

The engine must ALWAYS be off anytime you make or break those connections and the loopback must ALWAYS be connected when the hoe is not connected. ALWAYS!!
