I got the fittings and gauges that GatorS recommended. I had the beast running one day last week and the pump got hot very quickly. I contacted Honor for a rebuild kit and found out that the pump was probably old when it was installed and rebuild kits are no longer available. So I ordered a new pump and it got here today after dark so nothing else happened except for changing the filters for the engine oil and the hydraulic oil. I did change the engine oil. Tomorrow I hope to change the hydraulic fluid and the pump. If it does not function properly, I will put the gauges to work and see what is what. With the coming snow I dare to hope that all will be working properly! Thank You for your help sonny.
