    Hope I'm posting in correct place. 🙈
    I'm fitting a loader to my case 1494 & I'm looking for advice on the hydraulics end of things.
    I was told once, that I could run the loader from the 2 spool valves on the back end & use the 2 leavers already in the cab to work it. Is this possible? It would save running pipe work into cab & spools to fit. But also means it's taking up all the valves on back end so no power box etc at same time.
    (Although there are 5 couplings on back end. One of them a trailer brake maybe??)
    If it's not possible, what type/size spool valves do I need. I kno I need 2 bank 2 way but what size & are there types suited for things like loaders??
    Any help appreciated
    Thanks

    Get a monoblock valve chest, 3 double acting valves. 160 euro typically. 8 screw-in nipples and washers probably 20 euro.
    Most of these valve chest are Italian, you will need the 3 way chest for powering a grab, and you can run it from one of the tractors pair of outlets while having the second available for a tipping trailer, etc.
