Allis 180 post driver installation

OldAllis · Mar 25, 2020

I am installing a post driver on my 180 and need to know where to tie the return line back in to the tractor.
Is there a special part that would allow for an easy return line tie in?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

I have been told the best way is to remove the hydraulic fill dipstick and dump oil back in there. because this is only a temporary attachment to the tractor, this would be acceptable. Wrap a rag around the area to keep any dirt out. The compartment has to be able to breathe, so it cannot be air-tight.

Ok Thanks, that is what I was thinking.
If I was to make a more permanent tie in,
where would the best place be to do that?
I thought I could either tie in to the
main return line to the pump or tie in to
the return line behind the filter. I
thought tying in behind the filter would
be the best route since all the fluid
coming out of the driver would be
filtered before it went back in to the
system.

There is so much oil coming back thru that line it might possibly blow the filter off the tractor. You decide and deal with the consequences.

Thanks for your input, I'll be dumping it back in through the dipstick like you said.
Thanks again...
