I recently picked up a Kubota B6200D with Kubota Mower deck,
It also came with a front, I believe for Snow, The Gentleman I got it from never had the plow hooked up, I managed to get it hooked up, and the Hydraulics to lift it up and down work fine, I noticed on the hydraulic cylinder, there is another connection, Would anyone happen to know what it is for?
Also wondering how I could add hydraulics to the back of the tractor.

The previous owner is using a double acting cylinder in a single acting application so the other port is not needed. He left it open - a better solution would be a vented plug in place of the elbow. They make them specifically for this application.

Its easy to add AUX hydraulics to that tractor. It has an AUX outlet block on the right side of the engine - just purchase a valve and connect it up. Get a copy of the owners manual - it explains the operation of that block.
