The couplers you describe are hydraulic couplers and on the 400 we had there were 3 levers for hydraulic with another set of the couplers going to the rear of the tractor. From what it appears, someone has added a fast hitch and plumbed it off the right side and use the center lever(if it has 3) or what would be the outside if you only have 2. If it were me and I needed a loader fast and could get by without the hitch going up and down, I would put couplers to the F.H. raise the hitch and uncouple it and see if it stays up(you could also insert a valve to turn off and on) You then can put compatable couplers on both sides for your loader. We used the left side for the loader rams(inside lever), the right side for the hydraulic bucket(middle lever or outside if you have 2) If your tractor does have a third lever most add on hitch's in our area were plumbed into the rear hyd. when using a loader. The 400's I were around did not have power steering and you may have some add on plumbing if steering has been added. Shouldn't take you long to get it converted. Good Luck Gary

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
