Rather than react to yet another petty challenge, I thought it best if I just point to the source. Going by the Koyker manual itself, my earlier description was likely inaccurate, I could have lost track of which hose was which inside that conduit. And in Tommy's zeal to prove me wrong, he neglected to consider that there's more than one way to configure the hoses.I forgot which hose from the KOYKER loader controls goes to which connector on the tractor. KAMA TS254c. Three hoses. I must have put them on incorrectly because I destroyed my pump.
I'm pretty sure if you apply these diagrams to your specific configuration, you'll come up with the right answer yourself. But as far as "destroying your pump", think back. Did you remember to plug together the tractor ends of the loader connections after disconnecting the loader hoses? Now I may be wrong to assume that yours is plumbed similar to mine, but here goes; the supply comes out of the PTO pump for a couple feet, then there's a QD fitting. That's where the loader supply QD fitting plugs in. Coming out of the right side of the sump is another short hose, also ending in a QD fitting. The loader return QD fitting plugs in there. The supply and return male/female QDs are installed in opposition, making it impossible to connect the pigtails wrong. But the moral of the story is - whenever I unplug the loader from the tractor - those two the pigtails must be plugged together before I start the engine. Otherwise high pressure oil in that supply pigtail has no place to go.
