I pneu. cylinder, 2 valves

I pneu. cylinder, 2 valves

I pneu. cylinder, 2 valves

(OP)
Hi gang!, I ran into a problem last night at work, a little background, I work in a metals fabrication plant, we have a hydraulically driven paint conveyor that is controlled by the in the booth(s)right now we have two paint booths and a 4 way 2 position pneumatic valve in one paint booth that controls a pneumatic double acting cylinder, which is connected to a Brand hydraulic flow control to control the speed of the line.
(not my design)now they want to add another 4 way 2 position pneumatic valve, in the second paint booth, and eventually to paint booths 3 and 4, all to control the same cylinder, right now I am only concerned with the second system.
The paint room supervisor wants the system set up so both operators can stop and start the line, but only start the line if both valves are in the "run" position,
how do I make that happen with what I have to work with?,
they don't want to spend any money on more stuff for this project.
