Backhoe valve for rear hydraulic CK30 HST

[Steves Kioti CK30]

Thanks to you both VictorW and dfkrug. I hadn't realized that the tractor had the lever installed. I thought that it went into the area just beside the yellow handle and that when the hoe was installed with the rear remotes it was overlooked. Everything seems to be great and the pressure is not at the max any longer.
At each end of the hoe hoses from the remotes there are two nearly identical identical hoses. Both the hoses from the hoe are male, while the rear remotes have female quick connects. Before I switched the lever to the neutral position it was in the "B" position. Is there a way to know which of the two hoses from the hoe should go to the top of the rear remotes and the other to the bottom? Unfortunately I wasn't clever enough to identify them with a paint marker prior to disassembly. I have a couple pictures and I will review to see if there is enough detail to determine with any certainty.
Great advice for "Do NOT operate the hoe with the valve detented in the wrong position. That reverses the
flow thru the hoe and will damage the hoe's valves." I thought that being able to reverse the flow would be a saving grace. I'll do a little digging and see what I come up with.
Again thank you both.

It's a moot point whichever way you hook up the BH hoses to the remotes...if the BH controls are backwards just flip the tractor's control lever the other way and you're good to go!

I have the KB2375 on my CK30hst. The remote lever flows the fluid, pressure, to either QD depending on which way you moved the lever from it's center/off position. If I hook up my hoses, I guess you could say backwards, the bh controls don't want to work at all. I then just move the remote lever to the opposite position, as dadster mentioned, and then all is fine. It will only take you 10 seconds to realize this and reposition the remote lever and I have never damaged the bh controls during this brief time. If you get it set up again, then marking the hoses and remembering which way the remote lever is will save time.

Some members have accidentally bumped the remote lever and had the fluid deadheading putting a strain on the pump as you heard on yours. As mx5guy posted, an 18 inch length of hose with two male ends plugged into both remotes will let the fluid flow if this ever happens.

I have never tried backwards flow thru my hoes. The danger would be if you operated a valve and caused
the pressure in the OUT line to go over 500psi. It could blow out your O-rings.

Kioti had a diverter setup in the old days, for the LB tractor with backhoe, IIRC. I did not know you could
get it with a CK. My AUX setup is from 2005, the 2nd year of the CK30.
