Pic 1 is the control valve from the top down. #1 and #2 go to the right side lift arm (see pic 4)
Pic 2 back side of control valve where lines go thru the frame. Z goes to right side lower port.
V goes to left side lower port. X goes to right side middle port (see pic 1)
Pic 3 X goes to right middle port on control valve
Pic 4 A B lines entering right lift arm frame
Pic 5 Diagram with exact routes and connections. They are the same as before replacing
I cant make heads or tails out of your labels. You only need A, B, C and use themcat valve and pipes.

Hey Dan, sorry its not easy to follow. So I only need A,B, C and use themcat valve and pipes?? ?? ??
Not sure I follow . . . . .
Everything is hooked up exactly like the diagram attached.


Going to replace the new lines & quick couplers one at a time with the old ones and see what happens.
This is crazy why its not functioning.

Nothing crazy about it. Your power beyond feed to the 3pt is boogered. Where did you get your couplers and what did you buy? The OEM couplers are ISO 7241-B and dont interoperate with other series. Hardwire the hoses and take the couplers out of the mix!!!

What @TheOldHokie is trying to state is to label both ends of one hose as A, and connect it to the valve and tractor. The valve and tractor connection could then also be labeled A. Then another hose with B at both ends and a third with C at both ends. Label tractor and valve if you can.

The multiple letters for connection points is confusing = don’t connect hose A to connection point X …

And you might be surprised at how many people are 1000% sure they are hooked up correctly but end up being incorrectly connected.

Dan, I purchased the new lines/hose from Messicks and said the couplers had been replaced with new ones and that's the ones I got. I had to get both the male and female coupler parts to go to the new part.
AND I agree with taking the couplers out of the mix. I never disconnect the FEL.

Russ, thanks for your response also. Sorry if you got confused with the lettering I did o_O
Yes I saw another post where someone swore up and down they had the lines correct but admitted later they were crossed!
On mine, the lines are connected correctly and to their proper attachments.
Actually everything works except the 3pt hitch.
