New Tractor - backhoe hydraulic leak

[Aussie Battler]

Hi
i have just bought a TYM T265 (australia) compact tractor. When it arrived there was some hydraulic fluid around and under the hoses which drops onto the swivel plate of the backhoe then to the ground. Would it be coming from the control box? Are there certain places to look that are more obvious? How do I determine where the leak is coming from in general? I am new to the world of tractors and thus am a little disappointed that this arrived in this way. Do I just get dealer to come back and fix?
thanks

Check to see if all the fittings are tight. Pretty simple really.,

How much? A few drops or a few liters?

I was able to put 5 litres into the well. It seems to me I had two problems. The dealer had not added fluid after installing the BH and the leaking connection.
I opened up,the BH control box and found the leak. I’m not sure if the main connection was over tightened because it was very tight but still leaking quite a lot. I loosened it a little and adjusted the tension and I think that it still leaks but only a drop every 10 min or so now which is far less than b4.
I wonder if the seals have been damaged?
