I know what it is....but how do I know if my tractor has it or not? It is a 1959 case model 801-B. I have a blade on it now that weighs a ton (figuratively speaking) & was just curious as to know how I can find out.

pretty easy to tell. One hose in, single acting. Two hoses in double acting (down pressure).

Not necsaraily if I remember right the cylinder on the Eagle hitch on a DC had two hoses but you could not get any down pressure, it was only a return hose.

About the only hitches that have down pressure are the ones that have external cylinders. The Eagle Hitch on Case Tractors use a single acting hydraulic cylinder and the only down pressure is the weight of the implement and hitch. With nothing attached to the hitch if you can easily lift the arms your system doesn't offer down pressure.

Guys;

The 400-700B-800B series were all basically the same tractor. If you pull the control lever about halfway back to the lower position, there is down pressure applied to the eagle hitch. Not a lot, but it is there. Pulling the lever all the way back to the lower position puts the eagle hitch in a float mode. Hope this helps.

Pat
