IMHO there is no way of getting the (sensitive) vane gear to operate via the (very heavy resistance of) hydraulic steering.
On my boat I do have both though. The solution is that the hydraulic system has a by-pass valve to open when I want to use vane steering. The vane then operates on the (emergency) tiller.My boat is a ketch and due to the mizzen boom, I have to angle the vane 45 degrees aft. Works a treat anyway.
Of course there are vanes that operates on the wheel (or quadrant too) -the solution is the by-pass valve.
Hope this helps
