1900 FEL Plumbing........

[Anonymous Poster]

I have an '82 Ford 1900 4wd and just had a Westendorf front end loader installed. Love the loader but with the hyd hoses attached, my 3ph doesn't operate. Do I need to install some sort of pass-thru hose at the control or ball valve shut off in the pressure hose for each to work without disconnecting hoses each time? Thanks for any thoughts.

Fitz, I have a 1910 with a factory FEL. Look on the right side rail were the bell casting tapers into the transmission ( in front of the brake pedals) and you'll see the "Combination System Relief-Diverter Valve Manifold Assembly". It's a square block about 3-4" with 2 Allen headed plugs(these are auxillery ports and may be in use on your configuration) and between them and a little lower is a slotted bolt head. It takes a pretty hefty screw driver and you don't want to wallow out the slot . Turn this 90 degrees ( if its at 2 o'clock go to 10 o'clock or visa versa). RCH
