Woke up with a winter 'what to do brain phart'...build a backhoe.

Have a 10 hp horizontal B&S that I believe will get the job done but...not sure how to configure the spool valve manifold, It will have to handle 4 valves/hydraulic cylinders...possibly 6, taking slew and thumb into consideration.

Anyone have a grasp on fluid circulation etc.?

The surplus center has some info on hydraulic circuits. You are probably best off to look at the manuals we have for backhoes and start from there. There may even be plans for one. Please post what you find. Good Luck, Rick
