Ford 1320 Loader hydraulics plumbing

Hello, i mounted a loader on my ford 1320 and need help plumbing the hydraulics.

I am using this spool valve assembly

The ford has a diverter block with 3 ports and a selector screw that takes a flat head. My understanding is that the selecter screw enables you to switch hydraulics from the rear to the loader.


All of the hydraulic rams are hooked up but i cannot figure out how to hook the spool valve to the tractor.

Any advice would be great. Thanks
 
I know I'm slow, but I don't see what "this spool valve assembly" is. If you can elaborate on that, you might get some help.

Also, your valve SHOULD be power beyond capable, and like the tractor block it should have three ports as well, one of which contains a power beyond sleeve (which is ordered separately in most cases). Once past that, it becomes pretty simple. The ports on the tractor block are probably marked. Look for that and go from there.
 
If you tried to post a picture in your post, be advised: Not always, but in many cases new users have to have 5 or more posts on record before the site lets them post pictures (or links), due to site spam filters. Another option is to go down to the Site Comments Forum and ask YT Support for permission to post prior to that. You can try going down to the Test Forum and making several posts there to get your post count up, trying to attach your pictures to each post. That may work after you make several posts. Then make your post here again. It may not work immediately after you get past the 5 posts, if not, you might try logging out and back in at that point. There is a size limit as well, I think it is a total of 7mb per post (be it one picture or the total of several). Some pictures (often taken with phones), are too large and have to be reduced before they will post.
 
Yeah the diagram helps. As i see it, N P T stands for:

N: power beyond
P: Pressure line
T: Return to tank

Then these should be connected to the corresponding ports on spool valve/diverter block.

I currently have P and T hooked up, but not N. Does the power beyond need to be connected for the loader to function? (Currently the power beyond port on the tractor and the valve are plugged and NOT connected)

I can make the loader go up or down, but i have to have the T line disconnected. (proves i have high pressure and loader cylinders all work). Another oddity that i have currently created is that with the P and T connected i loose function of the rear 3 point hydraulics (doesn't matter which way the set screw is selected). As soon as i disconnect the Loader lines from the tractor, the rear 3 point comes back to life.

Doing my best to describe what i have here. Forum will not allow me to post pictures or links yet and this is my first tractor :)
 
the spool valve i have is also unlabeled as far as the A/B ports so i may as well ask if anyone knows for sure how they line up. When looking down onto the 4 ports:

is it

A2 B2
A1 B1

or is it

A1 A2

B1 B2
