Coupling Size Question

[RNStar]

Hey guys,

I just bought a new L2501 and want to test the Hydraulic pressures just to make sure they meet spec after reading many threads that state they don't come up to the factory spec even new from the dealership

I have no problem buying one of the dozen gauge options out there but I can't seem to figure out the quick disconnect size. I've read than many of the hoses are 3/8 but from my eyeball I can't see how that could be as I feel mine are much bigger. I've also looked at the numbers on the connectors but can't seem to make sense of them.

Does anybody have a link for the quick disconnect that will fit in my hydraulic fittings. I'm thinking a male side that can deadhead into my gauge (1/4in or is another size better) will be all that I will likely need to finish up this.

Thanks in advance

Thank you for that. I've printed a copy and I'll get it checked here when I'm not stuck at work.
Is there a common trend between the different styles of fittings like flat face for skid steers and AG for certain brands etc?

Tractors seem to all be 1/2 Ag 7241 700 series and skid steers seem to be all flat faced as you said.
