What are these? Hitachi 270

In my search to figure out why my machine is using so much fuel I've found what I believe are two seliniods. The wiring is not hooked up tho. Can anyone help me identify what they should control? They are mounted on the left side just inside the door that gives you access to the pumps.

    Looks like an aftermarket pilot control valve. Most likely for AUX hyds at some point.

    It does have aux hydros but I don't have controls for them. So that does make sense.
