Loader BX2670 Hydraulics Question

[robertm]

I just put a front blade on my BX2670. It's the quick hitch type, not the FEL mounted blade. It smokes the FEL mounted blade in EVERY way. No more traction issues, side-walking, feathering the loader controls to maintain traction.

My question is about slow return on angling one way over the other. Angling right is lightning fast, left is just slower. The directions for proper hydraulic hose hookup were wrong. Well, maybe my loader was improperly color coded. The blade has a green labeled hose, my loader has white. They don't coincide.

Is it possible to have hoses hooked up incorrectly? The functions all move correctly. I can't fathom I've grabbed the wrong return, or switched them, as everything works fine. Is this normal? Thanks guys!

That is normal, Kubota put a regenerative dump on the valve so when you go to angle right (or dump the loader bucket) it is faster.

Thank you! I appreciate the response. You are right on the right being faster.
