To check the hydraulic fluid level in a 1970 Ford 4000 farm tractor, first ensure the tractor is on a level surface and the engine is off. Locate the hydraulic fluid reservoir, which is typically near the rear of the tractor. Remove the dipstick or fill cap from the reservoir, wipe it clean, reinsert it without screwing it in, and then remove it again to check the fluid level. The fluid should be within the designated marks on the dipstick; if low, add the appropriate hydraulic fluid as needed.
The 1969 Ford 4000 diesel tractor typically uses Ford M2C-41 or equivalent hydraulic fluid for its transmission. This fluid is often a multi-purpose oil, such as UTF (Universal Tractor Fluid), which meets the necessary specifications for both hydraulic and transmission functions. Always check the owner's manual or consult a professional for the most accurate and specific recommendations.
To use hydraulics on a Ford 4000 tractor, first ensure the tractor is running and that the hydraulic fluid is at the proper level. Engage the hydraulic system by operating the control lever, which raises or lowers implements like a loader or three-point hitch. For best performance, adjust the flow rate or speed of the hydraulic operation as needed. Always consult the owner's manual for specific instructions and safety precautions related to your model.

There might be a way. You can come off the port on top of the diverter for the pressure line, I just don't know where to put the return line. Maybe someone else will know about a return line.
