Hi Folks. It"s been a while. I found my owner"s manual on ebay. Had to settle for one in German, but getting by. I have another issue though. Maybe one of you could help me out.
I"ll try to make a long story as short as possible. I"ve got a "67 Mccormick D326. It was made and sold in Germany so I"m not quite sure what the American comparison would be (3 cyl diesel, 26 HP). Says McCormick on the trim, but when I go to the parts store, the books that the guy uses all say Farmall. I bought the tractor for use around the place and decided to put a front loader on it. Here goes: I bought a frontloader and am ready to hook up the hydraulics. My tractor has internal hydraulic controls (just have the two levers on the outside). The tractor that I got the front loader from was a "63 or "64 model (I believe a D322 or D324)with external hydraulics ( 3 seperate controls connected by steel tubing) two are the same except for one has a dial on the lever hub (I think to keep the hydraulics from sinking when the tractor is not running??) They are about 4 inch cubes with 5 numbered openings (1,2,and 3 are in the lower front and 4 and 5 are on the upper back side) 1-3 has arrows molded into the case 1=in, #2 and #3=out (1 and 2 are side by side and #3 centered above them). The 3rd is quite a bit smaller and simpler. 2 1"x2" boxes side by side with a shaft (with control lever) connecting them in the middle (whole thing is 2"x4" and an inch thick with 2 front connections and 2 on the back). There is a connection on both ends of each. The 2 on the back are connected by a "Y" shaped tubing and the inside front one has a tubing conected to it. I need to make one of these work as the hydraulic control for my frontloader. Can someone explain how to make the connections. I"ve never fooled much with tractors or hydraulics. I had a fool proof plan that was unintentionally sabotaged. I had to make two trips to get the frontloader I bought. On the 1st one I picked up all except hydraulics. On the next trip to pick up the hydraulics, I had a camera and notebook so I could make me a dummy proof plan for hooking everything up. When I got there, the guy had sold the tractor. He was generious enough to remove all of the hydraulic controls for me, which was real neighborly. But now I"m pulling out my hair over something that is probably simple to you folks. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dave Null
