It covers unboxing the valve bank and spacer plate, removing the top plate and studs, running the control cable to the cab, mounting a new lever, and adjusting throw to match the existing remote. Good for owners planning the actual wrench-turning, not a spec overview.
Appears to be a hands-on owner working through the installation themselves, comparing it directly to a prior install on another tractor rather than presenting a polished or sales-oriented walkthrough.
Remove the top plate's three bolts and replace with studs, add the new valve bank with spacer plate and O-rings, run a control cable up through the cab, mount a new lever, then adjust throw to match the other remote.
Yes. The M6800 valve bank is thinner than the M6040/M7040 bank, so it needs a spacer plate so the valves and couplers do not hit each other.
The stud assembly comes in the valve control kit, not the valve bank kit, which caused confusion during installation since it was expected in the valve bank kit.
After installing the lever, test full throw and compare to the existing remote, then use an adjustable wrench on the valve to fine tune until throws nearly match.
