Massey Ferguson 1533 needing a picture of hose connectio

HELP please, had to take the four hoses off of the steering "device" that sends hydraulics to the power steering cylinder. Two of the hoses go the cylinder, one of the hoses is a low pressure return hose, and the last is a steel ridged pipe.
When I went to reconnect the hoses back, I could not remember which hole in the "device" each hose went. So, I guessed, and I guessed wrong. It took me and another mechanic 8 hours to replace the four hoses. The area is that tight and so hard to align the fitting and turning the wrench 1/6 at a time.
If you can take a picture of the hose placement on the "device" I will be so greatfull.
Thanks,
Copperhead

The "device" is an "orbitrol steering valve". Looking at some parts info on the 'net, it's likely a Sauer Danfoss.

There's typically markings near each port, "P" = pressure/incoming oil, "T" = "tank" = return oil, "A" and "B" are the ports to the steering cylinder. NOT sure which is Right or Left, if it steers backward, swap them.

Typical basic Sauer Danfoss steering valve, note the Pressure and Tank markings, the other ports are "A" and "B", with "A" being nearer to the input shaft.

Drawing showing all 4 ports.

Since there is a potential here for damage if improperly connected, proceed at your own risk!

You may want to check out the link below and give them a call to verify port locations. I have NOT used them but have seen many positive reviews on their help and knowledge.

Call Hydra fold 217 379 2614. Ask for the service company that they use it is in Ohio I can't remember the name of them. They are very helpful on them. they told me all about resealing one of their units and how to put back together and if any problems call them. Was very well satisfied with their help.
