Hugh has the answer that will work the best. None of the plugged ports in the manifold at the touch control block have any pressure on them except when the touch control levers have been moved and the rockshaft arms are active. With the block mentioned by Hugh is properly installed along with a control valve, both the remote (control valve) and the touch control rockshafts will be functional. This is because the fluid is directed through the control valve before it goes back to the touch control unit. One other solution that I've heard (I don't recommend it) is to connect into the pressure side of the pump at one of the plugged connections on the manifold. Then install a control valve connecting the supply from the manifold to the inlet port on the control valve and the return from the manifold back to the drain on the touch control block. Once all that is done, you tie the rockshaft arms with a chain or bar so they can't move. Then you move the touch control levers so they are activated. Since they can't more, there will be pressure in the line from the pump which will send fluid through your control valve. I'm not sure if you do this though if there is a relief valve in the block that will function or not. Best to get a control valve that has a relief valve built in. Best is to use the block Hugh mentioned however. This won't be cheap. By the time you get done buying the block, control valve, hoses and couplers, you will have several 100 dollars invested.

With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
