    Backhoe cylinder hose sticking out

    Hydraulic hoses have a "lay line" which determines the plane in which they want to bend. Loosen both end fittings and see if you can get the hose to lay a little straighter. If the hose has elbows on one or both ends and they are miss-clocked wrt the lay line that may not be possible. Dan

    Restrictor Valve Install

    That is an adjustable bi-directional flow control valve. It will work but is expensive overkill. Dan

    More confusion. Sounds like your loader is independent of tractor hydraulics. Dan

    Help with hydraulic leak in loader control valve (L4701-HST + LA765)

    That is not the relief valve. It is the float detent positioner. Those guys are clueless. It is leaking because the tank return circuit is being back pressured and over pressuring the seals in the tank core. Until the plumbing is corrected this is going to continue to happen Dan

    B7100D Rear Implements Drift Down

    I was/am surprised by the lack of leakdown on my L3901. It will seemingly hold for weeks on end. They must have done something creative.... Dan

    M4700 power steering hydraulic line.

    The line is connected to the inlet port on the steering controller. Take stuff off until you can access it. The WSM should have pictures and a more specific list of the "stuff" . The line is roughly 12" long but its probably more than a little work. Dan

    M4700 power steering hydraulic line.

    No removal. Disconnect at each end and renew orings. WSM is your friend. Dan

    You need to fix the plumbing - its not correct. Dan

    B7100D Rear Implements Drift Down

    The "spool" is the valve and it operates a hydraulic cylinder. Close the lowering control valve and see if leakdown stops. Dan

    Hydraulic leak on Flail Mower

    Thats what the DPOCV does all automagically. I assume your restrictors are orifice fittings installed on the hoses. The DPOCV you are looking at has 4 ports.klabeled C1, C2, V1, and V2. Just connect the hoses as I descrubed

    B7100D Rear Implements Drift Down

    Raise any implement and completely close the lowering valve. If it still leaks down its the cylinder. Valve problems on those models is usually loss of tension in the lever itself. Dan
