i got the hose on the hydraulic manifold and the 3 point isnt automatically lifting anymore...its just sitting there...i've adjusted everything i can see to the stops n back and it wont move...pretty sure it just needs hyd fluid but no clue where to fill hydraulics or check level...anybody that can help point me in right direction till my manual gets here would sure be appreciated.
also need to know what type fluid it takes.
thanx

What does the manifold look like? does it curve on top, with a larger hole in the center? Did it raise with the plugs in? Also, you need an open center valve on the end of the out hose. Post for a guy named Elmer Landman. Another good source is a man named Barry Key. These guys have a wealth of knowledge. There is always the DBTC which is an overseas site, but certainly has its share of experts who are willing to help. You can get those filter various places, just look around. Try Napa or even look on Ebay, sometimes they will run auctions on them.
Good luck,
Rob

Dipstick on transmission cover near gear sticks, fill plug fairly near by, 1/2" female square if memory serves. I think your cast plate should have 2 7/8 UNF blanking plugs in it,not a looped hose, I think the oil is being returned back down the transmission lube line and not to the Selectamatic valve. A good quality Universal tractor oil is good for the transmission,but check locally if you have extremes of temperatures. A suction (relaceable) filter is located under the tractor just ahead of the drawbar frame in a round tin casing, there is also a magnetic filter there, total oil capacity is approx 5 imperial gallons (aprox 25 litre)

ok,i've seen and checked that dipstick...wasnt sure if tranny shared fluid with hydraulics.
that plate had 2 plugs [spark plugs to be exact] in it and 3 point would raise as soon as tractor started and drop when you killed tractor...the select valve did nothing and 3 point would not hold any weight except its own.
the tractor appears to have been well maintained and tach shows 1492 hours...i've read alot about weak pumps on the DB's...do they go out with that few hours on them?
thanx

Pumps are not known to be unreliable. Sounds like the bypass and hold valves requre cleaning. Ensure that the hydraulic lift lever is pulled right back into the red select lever before switching the dial between depth, hieght and tcu/external even when the tractor is not running. Hydraulic system pressure is only 2000 lbsf/sq" on these tractors which was 500 to 1000 lbsf/sq" less than most of its compitition at the time so dont be too alarmed at what appers to be a low reading.

i found the filter housing...will change it when i locate a replacement.
what will happen if the dial is moved without lever being in select? i saw it being moved before i bought tractor and i think i twisted it once or twice before i saw sticker saying not to.

i've always had ford tractors so i guess i'll wait for manual to get here before i try cleaning those valves you mentioned...i dont even know where to look for them lol
thanx

"what will happen if the dial is moved without lever being in select? i saw it being moved before i bought tractor and i think i twisted it once or twice before i saw sticker saying not to."

The dial slides a tilting metal lever beneath two sensing pushrods (the POSITION one and the DRAFT one).

It does this by means of a plastic fork. If the control lever is not in SELECT, the internal lever will not be fully underneath the bottoms of the pushrods. Then the plastic fork can break.
