Case 1835B tow question

Is there any way to release the drive
motors on an 1835B so I can tow it into my
shop? I can't get to the master links on
the drive chains in it's current spot, they
are all turned to where they aren't
accessible. I was hoping there is a hyd
release valve somewhere on the motors or a
"tow valve" somewhere on there. I was able
to get it loaded running on my trailer
after it came down with its engine issue,
but it only made it about 50 feet to my
shop when it died and won't start at all
with just 2 cylinders working like they
should. I know I could slide it on
something, but that sounds like a pain by
myself. I thought I had an operators manual
that would cover this, but apparently I
have every manual except for the operators
manual. Thanks guys

There is no release for towing aside from disconnecting the drive chains If you try to skid it the last 50 feet to your shop you risk doing severe damage to the hydrostats. If you or a neighbor has access to a large loader pick it up and carry it to the shop, or remove the wheels and skid it on the belly pan or some heavy timbers.
 
One way messy as it is is to loosen all the hoses a couple of turnes on each motor to let the pressure escape,the motors act like a pump when they are towed.
