Thanks for the diagram, that helps. I do like your setup - that would, indeed, give a true double action circuit, which would help if I had (as I would like to in the future) a front end loader. My system is good enough as power up and gravity down, for now.
Your explanation about the cobbled-together dipstick makes sense, as a solid rod would indeed be hard to remove. It doesn't seem to read properly, though, as there's no mark on the stick (or anywhere near it) that corresponds with the current level of fluid, which doesn't seem too low. Also, there is no return line tee below the filler cap; the return line enters a port on the left side of the Remote Control valve box.
I think, for the time being, I am going to remove the pressure line between the main and remote valves, and connect the pressure line to the pistons to the main circuit. If I set the return up to the bottom of the pan, as your diagram shows, I'd worry about snagging it on brush. The return line seems to work well where it is for right now, so I can leave that.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
