    Blade hydraulic release

    Having to switch out my blade brackets and have to disconnect the hydraulic hoses to feed to the bracket. Lowered the poles and disconnected main power but can’t not force the poles closed to take off the pressure.. any suggestions on what I’m doing wrong? Thanks

    Well you should be able to, but I would crack the nuts on the pump, then remove them completely placing the lines in a container, then shut the anchor to push fluids out,

    You have to push very hard. We just do it the way fishysam described. Are you putting them down and letting them touch the ground. You need to stop them before the hit. Bout 6 inches or so.
