| Brian,
I'm back with the tractor for a day. Your descriptions of the lever position are very helpful. The detent on the rear position seems much more positive than the detent on the partially forward position, so I think I will use the rear position to run the motor. I don't think there is a concern regarding a shock to the seals when the lever is moved to stop position, as the feed motor has no momentum whatsoever.
I've moved the flow control to the slowest position. It was inexplicably set to the maximum flow.
I'll try things out when I can, but I'll proceed on the assumption that the motor won't develop full power unless I rearrange the return as per your excellent instructions. So rerouting the return will be my next step. I'll attach a photo showing the filter housing. The loader control was plumbed into the housing and they used a tee, so there is an available port. Am I correct that this is where the new hose should attach, where they left a cap on the left side of the photo ?
PS I have another question. In the Deere online parts catalog, they show a conversion kit that includes a valve to switch from sending the oil to the filter housing, or to the rockshaft housing (as it does now).
That kit is unavailable, but it brought to mind a question. If I convert the return to make the hydraulic motor work, are there other implements that then won't work well ? The only other thing I ever power is a cylinder, on a disc, or a thumb on the loader. I also assume that doing the switchover won't affect my loader, right ?
