In Reply to: Question IH Super C Hydraulic Hose Routing posted by JOHN on March 05, 1998 at 17:31:14:
There are two lines that run from the hyd unit to the pump. The smaller one is the pressure line. Measure the outside diameter (I think it is 1/2"). Call around to hydraulic supply houses and find two compression style fittings that will fit over this line. Ideally they would be 90 degree with 3/8" F or 1/2" F pipe thread on the other end. Cut out about 6" of this line and install the fittings. Route hoses through your loader valve. NOTE: this valve must be open center (ie. when the valves are not in use the oil flows through the valve freely) to allow your existing touch control to work and to avoid burning up your pump.
If you ever remove the loader valve you must route the oil through with a short hose to allow the circuit to flow open.
Sidebar: If hard steering is a problem, an H steering wheel is a few inches larger and fits on the shaft. Gives you enough leverage to turn with a loaded bucket.

: I purchased an IH Front End Loader Model IHC WV3 1232 which originally came off an Super C but all the hoses were missing and I would like to find some one who could help in the correct routing of the hydraulic hoses.
: The Super C I have has the fast hich drawbar with the hydraulic rear cylinder. The loader has two hydraulic valves one for the lift ( one way cylinder) and the other for the front dump bucket (two way cylinder). I think I may need to install another valve which would islolate the rear draw bar when the front loader is in use.
