The "special fitting for down pressure" is spoken of in the _H and HV Operator's Manual_ (p. 18)as the 'Remote Control Attachment' - commonly referred to as the 'christmas tree' that goes on top of the filler pipe to the lift all pump. Getting that and getting the plumbing to that set up is moderately involved and you'd either want pictures, as Hugh suggested, or schematics showing you what to do.

I sense that you just want to get this thing going and to do that I'd let go of the down pressure goal - you can always add that later. Get a couple of breathers for the upper ports on each cylinder. Hook one hose from the bottom of the clutch-pedal side cylinder to the front port from the lift-all pump on the clutch-pedal side. Hook the hose from the bottom of the brake-pedal side cylinder to the port from the lift-all pump on the brake-pedal side.

When first operating the hitch, I'd keep a couple of oil-drain pans under the cylinders as you may displace some oil out the breathers. If this keeps happening after several operations, you probably have oil leaking past the seals and will want to rig some return-line plumbing to get that oil back to the reservoir. I _think_ this can be done by joining both upper hoses with a T and then running a single hose from the other side of the T to the filler port on the lift-all. To connect that single hose to the filler port, I'd try another T connected vertically so the short arm of the T is connected to the return line. Then put your filler tube cap on top with a closed nipple. You need to preserve the breathing capabilities at the filler tube as this allows for fluctuations in the amount of oil in the reservoir.

I've never done this but have heard about it being done this way so you'll probably want to get some sort of confirmation before proceeding. Anyone who's had direct experience with this type of setup, please feel free to confirm, add or correct anything written here.
