Connecting a loader

[ROUSTABOUT]

My bros father in law just called. He's working on a 2012 MX 5000 Kubota. Has less than 100 hrs on it. Putting a great bend front end loader on it. Loader valve has three hoses. He said he has worn himself out connecting ever which way but it won't work. He's real crafty. Just rebuilt diesel on their VW beetle, and I wouldn't wish that on anyone. He just took this Kubota down and has it running good. The owners of tractor loaned it out and borrower got it hot and filled with water. Owner didn't check coolant. First winter got it. That's why so old with low hours. But, it's all going except the loader hoses. I was hoping someone here had an idea what we should do. I haven't even seen it. He wants me to come there, but I won't know any more than him at this point. I told him just wait, I have a place I can get some good guidance. So, here I am. I'd rather go down there with some idea of what's going on. I know if he's stumped, must be something serious going on. We have a hose making machine and all that. Just need to know what the problem may be. Tractor has never had a loader on it. This is first one.

Is he trying to connect the quick connections? If that’s the issue it probably has built up pressure inside. The tractor side should be easy enough to release but he will probably have to loosen the lines on the loader side to let some pressure bleed off.

He needs to get if he does not already have it, the hydraulic block that you need to add aux hydraulics.
The cover plate needs to be removed and this flat hydraulic block goes on in place of the cover.
What port is what is listed on the picture.

We will try that, thanks.

He's got connections on tractor and on loader. I will check to see if that block is there. Thank you.
