Trying to connect a post hole digger hydraulic down force kit. Where can I plug the return line? I don't like the filler plug or drain plug locations. Is there something in back I can use, ideally below the fluid level?

Do you have multiple rear remotes? Do they have the float feature with them? If so, simple plug into the second remote and put that remote in float mode. That's what I do on my 7520, although I do bungee the valve open so that I know it will stay in float mode if I happen to bump the lever.

That's a great suggestion. I have power beyond female connectors in the rear that I use for the grapple bucket in the front, but that lever is what I would use for the down force and there is no float.
After further examination, I think the drain plug for the hydraulic fluid will work for the return line. It is close to the rear and faces rearward. More later.
