Can "NOT" remove the "blue) flat face connector on the backhoe

[Tigercub]

....I shut the tractor off, wiggle all the levers, joysticks etc to relieve pressure and am able to remove the other connectors but NOT the "Blue" connector on the BH......am I forgetting something?

Did you hold the levers till the buckets settle to the ground or the transport pin?

Yes, I wiggled and held the levers for all the hydro on all ....the BH and the FEL , the 3PH ....
the other BH connectors came apart very easy with a little push/lift the knurled sleeve and they pop off. the blue connector will not .....

If all else fails, you can loosen the hose connector at the cylinder (or at the disconnect maybe) to relieve pressure that may be preventing the separation of quick connect. If this doesn't work...something may be physically wrong with the disconnect...preventing separation.

One step at a time...
