I'm a bit new to all this farming. I have a MF 175 with two pairs of hydraulic quick connect fittings. I have a rock picker that weighs about 5000 pounds and two hoses to raise and lower. When I moved it from it's old home to my place I hooked up the quick connects no problem and drove it 5 miles back to my place. I parked it and used a chisel plow for a while. Now I'm trying to hook it back up again and can't get one of the connect to hook up. I figure it's because I left the load on the tires. I took my cat 951 and picked it up off the ground to remove the pressure from the line, but I still can't get it to engage the coupler. I'm sure this a rookie move, but can some of you more experienced folks give me a clue what I should do? Please! Thanks, Keith
