We have a 1951 Farmall M that belongs to my wife's dad. There are some connections which I assume must be for a hydraulic system, but which he has never used. Hope someone can tell me what we have here and, assuming it is a hydraulic system, what I might need to do in order to get it working. Description as follows;
On the left side of the tractor just below the starter and behind the clutch lever, there are what appear two hydraulic connections located side by side, both fitted with 1/2 inch elbows. The front elbow connects to a 12" length of hydraulic hose that is stubbed off. The back elbow is plugged and can be rotated by hand, although it doesn't seem to unscrew.
On the right side of the tractor near the pulley there is a fill cap located on the top surface and below that on the side, a lever and another 1/2 inch elbow plugged off.
I have photos showing the items described above If that would help.
Hope someone can shed some light on this as I know very little about hydraulics.
