Solenoid Valve Project

I need a little help with a hydraulic problem.
I want to use my Hydraulic Power Beyond
to run two valves, for two cylinders on each
side of a pull behind box blade.


So first, is it true that to control a cylinder both
directions, you need a 4 way valve, to push it open,
and then to push it the other way. Is this right?
Is there a better way to look at this? Change
direction of the flow, maybe?


What I don't under stand is how is the PwrBeyond
dealt with? Are there manifolds that can deal with
the constant flow of the power beyond, and will just
have a place to bolt on my control valves?


Or do I need different valves. Thanks.


These types of valves bolt onto different manifolds
that have the spec openings and bolt pattern for each valve,
correct? I noticed some have the line openings in
the back, some not, etc.








I'm using this valve.
