Hello.
I’m adding a third function to my L35. Can anyone provide information on what ports are for the pump (pressure) and return to tank. I have crawled under to trace them but i want to be sure.
Thanks

Yes. The ports/hoses to the cylinders are obvious. The power beyond is on the front. I don’t know which is the tank return and which is the pressure from the pump.

It’s for the TL720 loader.
Assumong you have the usual 3rd function solenoid valve all you want is the power beyond from the loader. Disconnect it at tractor and reconnect it to IN on the third function. Then connect OUT on third function to the tractor in place of the loader power beyond.

Actually, the PB is on the back. The pressure and tank are toward the front. This one:

I misspoke regarding front and back. I agree the picture above is the PB port. Do you know what the ports on the front of the valve body (to tank and from pump).
If anyone has a WSM they can send me I would appreciate it.

If I had that information I eould be happy to provide it. But I dont. Do you really need to ID those ports to hook up your third function? See my previous response.

I have a summit hydraulics universal valve. It requires a return to tank connection. I’m going to T it off the loader valve tank return.

The top one marked 'IN' is from the pump, and the bottom one marked 'OUT' is the tank return.
