F-10 loader -- plumbing up a grapple hook

I'm hoping Allan or somebody can help me here. Long story short, When I bought my Farmall M about 10 years ago the seller had a grapple hook and cylinder on the Farmhand F-10 loader, and a control valve. He said he had all of the pieces, but had never actually hooked it up. I took the hook and cylinder off and set it aside (I was mainly using it to push snow).

Fast forward to this month, I sold the tractor to a neighbor and he asked if I could help him put the grapple back on and hook it up. The control valve was actually on the tractor when I got it (but the lines running down the side were not hooked to the cylinder). I took it off and moved some things around, but now I don't remember quite how it went.

Could Allan or somebody either take a picture of one that's properly connected or explain it to me? If it would help I could run over to his place and take pictures of what I've got. The previous seller mentioned that all the stuff was there after the haggle was done, so I'm pretty sure most of it was there at one point.

Thanks,

Bob

Bob-
I am going to assume you have a "newer" style orange F-10 and not the green one. Ours has the extra valve and plumbing for the push-off for stacking hay, so again I will assume it can be used for a grapple. Here's how it goes:
The pressure line comes up on the left rear "upright" near the reservoir parallel to the pressure line that feeds the main control valve. The line goes in the rear of the pushoff/grapple control valve. The two lines going to the grapple cylinder come out the top (not sure which is which, but pushing the valve lever to the left (in) will return oil to the reservoir). The return line from the grapple valve comes out the front and threads into the front of the main control valve, in line with the line that goes out the back of the main control valve to the reservoir. One other thing- the pressure line feeding the valve has a "y" in it and the "y" ties into a cast part (part #2716 or 2718) that connects to the other return lines above the tank. I assume this is a relief valve of some sort.
I will add that I personally have never used this extra control valve because we no longer make the big hay stacks, but this is how it is still plumbed.
Sorry for the lack of pictures and the long post, but I hope this helps some.

Thanks Lon,

I'll have to print out your description and try to match it up w/ what we have. I was thinking mine got it's pressure from the other valve, but maybe it split off farther back. Once I get pressure to the valve I can figure out which feed line goes where.

Thanks for taking the time to help me out,

Bob
