My 'bolt has the pto on a cable on the dash and the hoist lever is on the floor.

When you figure it out, I offer a bit of a safety warning, since you are waking up old equipment:

Never EVER get between the frame and the tilted box without first propping it up! Gravity is just as dangerous a force as live electrical wires, and don't trust the once-dormant hydraulics to keep the load suspended for you.

Prop it up and test the prop to ensure it will hold the box in the air while you inspect the hoist.
