Hi, I am new to tractors and the forum. Been lurking and learning.
I purchased a Kubota B2650 and had the Land Pride 3rd function kit installed. I also purchased the BH77 backhoe.
I finally received a EA Wicked 55 grapple. I hooked up the grapple and attached the hoses as instructed. I lost the 3 point lift and my front end loader started acting erratically. I had to put the loader in float mode to get it to go down. It was very slow up. Tractor sounded like the hydraulic relief valve was open the whole time.
I started trying to troubleshoot the problem. I figured out they put the 3rd function valve in backwards. The P port and T port are plumbed to the loader. According to the installation instructions that is backwards to what it should be.
Now the question, should I be worried about damage to the hydraulics or plumb the valve correctly and tractor on?
Thanks,
Randy
