Usually the black hose goes to the "UP" (left hand side when looking at the pump), the gray (tan?) goes to the "DN" port (right hand side when looking at the pump). If you didn't empty the cylinders you should be ok. I like to leave a cap on the DN port, put the line DN line in the reservoir and run the drive up. This forces the pump to pull oil from the reservoir, not just recycle the oil (and air) returned from the other side of the cylinder. When the drive is up, remove the DN plug and reconnect the line. Trim up and down a couple times, should be good to go.
