Case DC rear hyd hoses

I recently aquired my grandfather's 1952 DC. He had used this tractor on the farm with a Freeman loader. I took the loader off, but am not sure how to hook the rear remote hoses back up in the proper location, so that I may use it to pull a disc. Grandpa had plumbed the loader in with a splitter valve, and I'd like to eliminate it and clean up the rear of un-necessary hoses. so... My question to you gentlemen, does anyone have any good pictures of the rear of a late DC with eagle hitch, showing how the hoses are run, and where each one is plumbed into? I bought an operators manual off E-bay, but it only covers the earlier models, before the eagle hitch.
 
Here are pics of my SC. your DC should be the same.

That helps tremendously!!! Any chance you might have a photo of the left side? I only ask, because that is where grandpa plumbed in the splitter...
 
Bare in mind as you stand behind the tractor, that the bottom two fittings, one RH and one LH make up a circuit. The bottom pair power the remote couplings. The left top fitting goes to the bottom of the eagle hitch cylinder, and the top hose from the cylinder goes down to a fitting in the oil resivoir. The top RH fitting on the valve/pump assy. plumbs into the end of the filter housing. There is no down pressure on the eh system.

That cylinder looks exactly like the one on my 400. The valves look kinda similiar, too. I indeed have down pressure on my Eagle Hitch, to the point that I can raise the rear of the tractor on a block of firewood placed under the EH arm.
Apparently the valves don't provide 2-way pressure on the cylinder, but could the cylinder itself could be used as a 2-way?
 
If instead of running the top RH hose down to the filtercover you run it over to the top fitting on the eh cylinder, you will indeed have down pressure, but it wasn't hooked that way from the factory.
