I have a ford 555a backhoe ('85) with auxiliary hydraulics on the hoe. A foot switch controls activates the aux. no power to switch, no flow to the aux ports The unit originally had a Stanley hammer and a sticker talks about a V-60 valve. No mention of the valve or aux hydraulics in the ford service manuals does anyone have any information? Is the aux valve located inside the frame rail on the right hand side of the unit near the hydraulic filter area? I have nope a web search to locate diagrams, wiring diagrams-nothing Thanks for your help
V60 valve Most dealers ordered in a approved kit from Stanley that ford put there blessing on. Stanley sent the kits with all the parts and the dealer did the installs per the make and model. The V60 kit had a max flow of 60 gpm., input pressure to 5000 psi, max regulated flow of34 gpm., and pressure relief settings from 250-3000 psi. The valve is only around 4" tall and 8" long it should have three lines to it and a flow lever, may have a small to tank line also. With the solenoid not energized the oil flows into the single port and out the port next to the relief valve. Once energized the flow goes to the other regulated port to produce flow for the hammer. Most hammers will only fire with down pressure on the tool bit. You should have a simple wire harness, fused hot wire to the floor pedal, then to the solenoid, then to ground. Hope this helps some.
