Discussion:
Connecting a sideshifter to Vickers valve

Hello, mine is a Clark C500 Y40 PD (Y355-2826-GEF3966), to which I would like to fit a side-shifter and/or a bucket. As far as I can see, there is the Vickers valve already installed on the right hand, but no leverage and no fittings to the front. Only "In" and "Out" hoses (I guess) are connected at the bottom of the valve. Can anybody tell, which fittings I should use for the lines and what kind of threads I am going to find? There is a threaded nipple on the upper left hand side (thread on the outside) and at the bottom, roughly between in- and output. I would appreciate any advice and or pics of the installation. Thanks

In 1898, author Morgan Robertson wrote a novel called 'Futility', which described an "unsinkable" ship named the Titan that sank after hitting an iceberg. Fourteen years later, the Titanic sank in a strikingly similar fashion.
