Can anyone tell me (or show me with a photo) how their front loader hydraulics connect to the tractor...I think mine is all wrong.

What tractor and loader? I don't know if they are similar enough for a "one size fits all" answer. If it's a B7500 and 302FEL, I can trace my lines out and tell you. Mine came with small dots of paint to "color code" the hoses to the valve body.

I took the advice of a poster here and went to Home Depot and got a bag of colored tyraps because the paint was kinda hard to see. Now all I have to do is get the tyraps on both halves of the QD couplings to match.................chim

Just took my loader off tonight for the first time. B7610 LA352 FEL. My has plastic tabs and caps color coded on both the tractor & loader. I could take some pics of it if that's help.

Hi,
It is a B7001 and i think the loader is a LA301 with a two lever spool. I can show photos of the current setup if this will help.

What is all wrong about your front loader connections? Loader doesn't work? Loader works but the controls seem "backwards?" The hose hook up is a real mess?

On my Kubota and on rental tractors I've used, the controls work as follows:
Push control stick forward to lower bucket,
Pull back to lift bucket,
Push right to dump bucket, and
Pull left to roll back the bucket.

Hello HankStains -

Here is a picture of the "color-coded" quick disconnects on my B7610 / LA352. The colors are as follows:

White / Yellow: Raise / Lower bucket
Blue / Red: Curl / Dump Bucket

The "functions" may be reversed - but the color pairs at least show the hydraulic connections for a specific function.

More pics on my website - link at bottom.

Hope this helps,

Dan
