I bought a Kioti CK2610 about a year ago. The dealer installed a third function kit and rear remotes for me prior to delivery. I've been using the third function to run a grapple for a while, but I just recently tried to use the rear remotes for the first time for a hydraulic top link. As soon as I plugged it in and tried a test, hydraulic oil blew out from beneath the seat.
I'm completely out of my element here but I'll describe what I found. There's a rubber hose attached to the block with the rear remote levers. When I move the lever, I can see this hose pushing away from the block (circled in the attached photos with an arrow showing the direction of movement) and allowing oil to spray. I pulled the seat off and found that the pipe clamp wasn't super loose, but I was able to crank it down tighter. I also noticed that the rubber hose in question is constricted (highlighted in an attached image) as it bends down to route underneath the block.
Before I put this all back together, I'm curious to know what that particular hose is for (versus the hard lines running to the remotes) and whether the constriction in the hose might be contributing to its working loose?
Any advice would be appreciated.
