The valve in the main valve block that feeds the side shift & tilt function is NON replaceable - it would be a complete replacement main valve block.

When was the hydraulic oil & filter last replaced?

I have come across RRE before where hydraulic oil & filter has been replaced by an in house technician & someone had removed the complete filter assembly & just fitted the replaceable green coloured element insert back in to the tank but without the metal outer jacket.

That in turn trashed the hydraulic system with debris when the filter element exploded.

Fact of the week
Brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf ("Rudi") Dassler split their shoe company after WWII due to a bitter feud, and established the rival companies of Adidas and Puma. Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
