rear remotes

[Joe10]

I am exploring the idea of adding rear hydraulic remotes to my 276d. Can they be connected to the valve under the seat (in picture) and if so how should it be plumed in.

thanks in advance.

it can be connected per this page out of the service manual. You will need headless 1/4 pipe plug, 2 ea 3/4-16unf adapters, and an auxiliary valve. Adapters such as this. https://www.surpluscenter.com/Hydraulic ... 00-6-8.axd or this https://www.surpluscenter.com/Hydraulic ... 01-6-8.axd

Plug like this https://www.surpluscenter.com/Hydraulic ... 6-HP-4.axd

Thanks Winston, that's great. Where it says the hydraulic return line of the aux valve must be connected to the return oil plug (3/4-16 - 2b with o ring),
would that be the plug labelled 'c' in your diagram? which sits in front of the gear leaver and to the right of the hydraulic dipstick as you sit in the seat?

The hose looped around on my old 2002D is the same inlet/outlets as your 276. The one on the left is the outlet and that is also where the headless 1/4" plug will go. The service manual is showing a power beyond valve being used. You would have a 3/8" port up in front of the gear shift that could be used as a tank return. Get's complicated if not careful and I doubt I am smart enough to explain it.
