husker44a 06-19-2012 23:56:58 63.172.255.242 Report to Moderator	I would like to use the power-trol for a cylinder like what is in Walts previous post photo. Using the Q/D couplings. What besides the female couplings do I need to do this ? I know about the original couplings but this is less expensive way to do it. Thanks guys. [Reply]   [No Email]

BTW, you only have to install ONE selector valve in the upper hole, if you choose to ever go that way. There's a section in Field Service Bulletin #207 on that. BUT...the AA 5724 R will only fit into the newer Powr-Trol housing that uses the retaining lever, not the large knurled nuts. This post was edited by F-I-T at 11:43:08 06/20/12.   [Reply]  [No Email]

BUT..Keep a set of the original "Dummy Plugs" handy, should you every want to use the "Rock-Shafts).. IF you can find a set of the "Selector Plugs", you would not need to change the plugs and loose oil when you do.. NO real Big deal, just a little messy... You could plumb into the Side of the Power-Trol, for your Remote..but, you would still need to change the plugs..IF you do not find a set of "Selectors".. Did I just more-or-less repeat myself..???...!!! Ron.. Ron..   [Reply]  [No Email]

I like using the AA 5724 R selector valve, then run the hoses from the side ports to my pioneer connectors (the quick disconnect Aeroquip fittings from the factory option on my 70D were routed this way). They are easier to get to when using an 800 hitch. By using the selector valve, you can option between the remote cylinder and rockshaft without pulling off the hoses.   [Reply]  [No Email]

Yes I did get the photo from Walts previous posting in "What I Saw". Anyways, I will get two Pioneer Q/D couplings. I have the power-trol plugs in the P/T now. All I have to do is remove the plugs and install the Pioneers ?   [Reply]  [No Email]

Then take your original male couplers and hook Pioneer female couplers to them. Install like the tractor in the picture. I have done this with all of mine, lots less mess when changing cylinders.   [Reply]  [No Email]
