Snow blower chute rotation issues

[NWPA Tractor Guy]

Just installed b2781A snow blower with hydraulic chute rotation. Everything works great, but the chute will only rotate in one direction. I noticed when I move handle to rotate the opposite direction the hydraulic hose moves with pressure, but it does not rotate clockwise. Any thoughts on why? Thanks in advance

Used the wrong hydraulic lines? Is this a front mount?

Are you pushing the handle all the way? If your problem is to the right, there is 2 stages in the lever when pushing to the right right.

BAP is correct, you have to move the stick past the indent. This problem stumped me as well when I first got my front mounted blower. Their is an indent when moving joystick to the front, and right side.

Yes it's the front mount. I attached the hydraulic lines per the color coding. up and down works for the snow blower and the counterclockwise for chute

I will check thank you.

If it's to the right rotation you're trying to get going, you have to push the hydraulic control lever past the 2-stage indent to get past fast-dump mode.
In fast-dump there's only bucket load back pressure holding the weight of the load and fast-dump releases the load pressure, but doesn't apply any down force. Then a loader bucket load of sand dumps a lot faster than pumping fluid to push the cylinder down. But no hydraulic power is applied, so no flow, so the result when used for the chute is no movement, until the lever is forced past the indent then BOOM that chute will jump to life for you!

NWPA, did you ever get this problem sorted out ?
