I am new to this unit as well as to skid steer ownership. I have owned it for about 6 months now and have a good feel for general operation.

My question is relating to the tool attachment couplers. (The pic attached is of my machine).

Why are there so many attachment couplers? For the attachments I have used thus far, Grapple, brush mower, snow blower, I have only attached to the bottom two The blower also uses the electrical connection. It appears that the bottom two connectors to the left are connected together via a manifold and use one hydraulic line. Same thing for the two bottom connectors on the right.

To my understanding, high flow is only activated when using an electrical connector? Is that accurate?

So I was thinking that the hydraulic connectors were not related to std flow vs high flow? True?

Any help to educate a newbie would be greatly appreciated.
