My Minneapolis Moline UB was born without hydraulics from the factory. Some 50 years ago my Dad had hydraulics added, using Char Lynn components. Several years ago when I took possession of the tractor, I replaced the hoses and rebuilt the control valve, but never had occasion to actually use the hydraulics. Last week I finally had that chance, and discovered that they don't work. I assume that it's the pump which is not working.
