My Kuhn's hay grapple showed up today...Santa Came Early. Now I need to have hydraulic hoses made up (or bought on-line) to go from the rear remotes to the front of the loader arm, a set of quick connect couplings, then a set of shorter hoses to the grapple unit hydraulic cylinder.

I know nothing about hydraulic hoses, so do not know the size or type to used. The rear remote fittings are labeled KWAN KWANG 12 PT 1/2.They look like 1/2 inch fittings (3/4 inch thread diameter inside on the back). So do I need to run 1/2 inch hoses?

I am also wondering the best route to run them on my CT 235.


Anyway help would be appreciated.

Thanks - Keith
