[AT] One-way cylinder

[Dennis Johnson]

Brad,

My guess is that you could need to first connect another valve that would let the flow dump from the same port to let the cylinder retract.

On my mower conditioner I have a cylinder that’s setup as a simple one-way cylinder. I’d like to keep it that way as I have a WD-45 I’d like to use on it at some point.

I assume I can plug it into the lift port to raise it and then drop the handle to the float position to bring it back down? I didn’t see anything in the manual that addressed this type of use.
