1maidenfan 202 #1 Posted February 11, 2012 Not sure if this will work so I thought I would ask the people with the knowledge. I am building my own F.E.L. and dont have a control valve(loader valve)and was wondering if I can use a spare impliment valve that I have. Thanks, John Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KC9KAS 4,744 #2 Posted February 11, 2012 I would think that will work. A single hydraulic valve has 3 (or 4) ports....Flow into the valve then either directed to the resorvior or one (or 2 directions for the cylinder.....assuming a double acting cylinder.) I certianlly would try it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
