L275DT hose routing for FEL

[timsch]

I have an L275DT with a FEL. The FEL controller is mounted as shown in this post. The hoses going to the controller run from the pump (which is down and to the left of the seat), behind the seat, then up on top of the right side fender just looped over the handle mounted on the fender, and then to the controller. Surely that's not factory routing - I can't even get on or off the tractor on the right side.

Can anyone show or tell me how these hoses should be routed? Thanks.

Hello
I would route them from the hydraulic block on the left of the seat behind the seat down the right side next to the fender to the loader frame that attaches to the rear axle. Follow the loader frame all the way up to the vertical loader post and then to the control valve. I always attach them on the inside of the frame work with a long zip ties. I’m sure you’ll have to get longer hoses.
Good Luck Lance

Thanks Lance. I looked at it last night, and your suggestion looks like a good one.
