The hydraulic control valve is located inside the main frame, below the operator cab.
The hydraulic control valve is the component that uses spools to direct the flow of hydraulic fluid to the lift, tilt and auxiliary functions. A separate BICSTM valve is mounted to the hydraulic control valve.
The lift and tilt functions are operated using mechanical linkages to connect the foot pedals to the lift and tilt spools.
The auxiliary functions are operated using mechanical linkages to connect the right steering lever to the auxiliary spool. Move the lever to the right or left to activate the auxiliary hydraulics.
