It might harm the steering controller if you put input to output.
The WSM will tell you which hose goes to which port.
View from sitting in the seat:
Supply will be lower right port
Return will be upper right port
Right side of the steering will be upper left
Left side of steering cylinder will be lower left

Which hoses?

If you reverse the cylinder hose it will steer in reverse

If you reverse the supply and return hoses it probably wont steer at all and the transmission may quit working.

Neither should damage anything. Its easy to determine which hose goes where
