    Welcome to HEF Beng . Is your 190E equipped with the offset boom option ?

    Thanks for welcoming me. Yes it's a offset boom. He's some pictures of the hydraulic control unit.

    If that is a pic of your actual machine, it is NOT an offset boom.

    Since you don’t have the offset boom option, the auxiliary spool in the main control valve is available to run the thumb. The auxiliary spool is a manual spool accessed on the bottom of the main control valve. There are (2) other manual spools on the bottom of the control valve operated by control cables for the (2) track propel functions. The Deere online parts site lists a “spare pedal “ and “offset boom main pipings” https://partscatalog.deere.com/jdrc/sidebyside/equipment/82791/referrer/search/pgId/385382754 . https://partscatalog.deere.com/jdrc/sidebyside/equipment/82791/referrer/search/pgId/385382766 . I have no idea what parts may still be available for the control pedal and cable from Deere. Have a look at those (2) parts breakdown links and it should give you the general idea of what is involved to plumb your machine.

    Good day The Summit equipment is for pilot control, if you go with cable it will not be required. Kind regards Uffex
