I recently purchased a AC either d14 or d15 industrial with back hoe, can’t find serial number to verify but it does have the early 149 cubic engine. My problem is when I bought it and was shown the function of the backhoe I thought the guy moved a lever on the loader side to engage the backhoe but can’t figure it out. The guy I bought it since moved so no contact. Any help appreciated.

It probably uses a DIVERTER valve to transfer hydraulics from loader to backhoe function . It's a common item on many older machines to split the hydraulic pump flow to attachments - My HD4 used that so loader bucket had to be placed onto solid ground , then switch to hoe operation . Kind of a job to do more than one function with one end of machine
