Mr. ycs is correct about the electric pilot control valve. We usually install a new control handle on the joy stick with buttons or rocker switches to operate the valve. The new pilot valve will have four ports, supply from the pilot system, A and B to the main control spool and a tank port. The electric valve is much easier to use than contorting your foot to control the function.
