Snow Kubota BX2760A / BX2763A Blade hydraulic hose connections?

[gthunt]

Just purchased one of these blades with the angling kit. There is no indication of which hose connects to which colour on the tractor. Could someone look at their connections and tell me which hose from the up/down cylinder goes to the red or blue connection. Likewise for the angling which hose to the white or yellow.
Thanks

Start with the two blades that tilt the blade east and west.
Then, move on to the two that perform the north/south lift/drop function.

Since there are two pistons driving the functions, with a set of lines to each, work on half at a time. It's a touch fussy, but once you have it, you can mark them.

Just a suggestion. Very jealous you were able to find that blade unit. I'm on the look out myself.

I'll see if I can find a pic, but I can tell you from going down the same road, the two outside male QC's operate one function (I think the up/down) and the two inside male QC's operate the other function. You would not assume they set it up that way, but that's the way my BX1860 and BX25 are.

This is the best pic I have. Obviously, I don't have the blade mounted now. This is the 54" version, which I modded to add hydraulic angling and uses the same quick hitch as the 60" version, so the hook up should be the same.

That is the same as on my BX24. The two center are the left and right, the two outer connections are the up and down.

Thanks guys I think I can figure it out from that picture. I was pretty sure the two outside and two inside were together. Just wasn't sure which one did what. I hate to say it but I will be looking forward to the snow when it comes. Lol

For mine, on the blade turning cylinder the back hose goes to the left center, front hose to the right center. (Front hose meaning the closest to the blade, back hose furtherest from the blade.)

On the lift cylinder, the lower hose goes to the outer right, upper hose to the outer left.

Well, if you have any small dozer jobs to do, you can drop the spring trip arrester things down and go dozing. I'll bet there's something around you can find that a dozer blade is just the ticket for.

We'll got her done all hooked up and working right the first time thanks to all your input. For the info of the next person.
Hydraulics - white connects to top of lift cylinder
- yellow connects to bottom of lift cylinder
- blue connects to rear of angle cylinder
- red connects to front of angle cylinder

Let her snow
