I just purchased a 1955 WD45 and I was wondering did these tractors have a rear light, all this one has is a little red light on the left fender. Also, the hydraulics consist of the lift arms, and an outlet for a one way cylinder, but the lever by the throttle is the only control. I notice by the hydraulic pump there is a knob you can turn with you fingers that appears to maybe send oil down different lines......would this be how you change from the lift arms to the remote cylinder? If so, can you use both at the same time  ?I did order an operators Manual, but it's not here yet ... so thanks for the help.

The operator manual will tell you how to setup the hydraulics. The left lever by the steering wheel is the only hydraulic control. Oil goes to both the lift arms and remoce ram at the same time. I believe that form the factory a WD45 dind't have any rear light except for the small red bullet light that you have. It's pretty rare and kinda cool to see one still on the tractor. Most of the trcactors I see have had them replaced wiht a standard light so the drive can see behind them.
