I recently acquired a JD 1020 gas an am learning it's operation, but have a few questions to ask. The tractor has a front end loader on it, but no hydraulics to operate the bucket. I dump the bucket manually, then have to slap it shut by dropping it and reversing. It works OK, for the horse poop I have to scoop. Anyway, the loader is operated by only (1) hydraulic line, so I guess the oil drains back thru the same line when the loader is lowered. There is another port next to the one feeding the loader, but I think it is also a supply line...No return line...correct?.. Anyway, I want to use the tractor hydraulics to operate a log splitter I have with a bad motor.
I got the special hydraulic coupler cone for the hydraulic feed line to the splitter. The splitter has a diverter valve, but also an oil return line back to it's own reservoir. I need to divert the oil return line back to my 1020, since I'll be using it's oil, but don't know where to run it back into the tractor. I'm thinking that I can simply stick the oil return hose into the hydraulic oil filler port behind the seat., as a temporary measure... I'd like some thoughts if that will be OK, or am I missing something?..Is there a return connection somewhere else that I can tie into?...
