How Do You Test a Hydro Without Engine?

With a drill: [img]/club2/attach/phandad/7018_Drill_0001.jpg[/img] I wanted to see if the hydro was operable in the engineless 7018 I recently acquired without installing an engine. So using a steering wheel puller rigged up to the end of the driveshaft, I hooked up my drill and gave it a go. It worked and the hydro worked. Took a while to pump fluid through everything, but the tractor moved both forward and backward :D.
