I am working on installing a loader on a Moline 445. I had fabricate brackets to mount and install the loader. I have never done much with hydraulics, so I have questions. The loader uses a pump that runs off the PTO. How does the pump attach to the PTO? There is a hole in the pump inlet shaft that it appears as though a pin would go through the PTO to hold the pump to the shaft. Would I drill a hole through the PTO itself. Also, there is a bracket that bolts to the pump, that would hold the pump in place. What is the best way to secure the pump? There is a rectangular tank that bolts to the loader frame. Am I correct in assuming this to be the flow pattern? Fluid flows out the bottom of the tank through the spin on filter to the pump, out the pump to the inlet side of the control valve assembly and then the exhaust side of the control valve assembly goes back in to the top of the reservoir. The loader is off a fence row 3020, no tags, and I got this thing already disassembled. Thanks for any replies. Ted
