Got tired of having my quick connects on my grapple not pushing onto the third function connectors because the grapple sits in the sun and raises the pressure in the lines. So I fabricated a pressure release tool to make it simple to let the pressure off the hoses. I looked online at Boltonhooks.com and fashioned this one from materials I had on hand. It’s a simplified version and will only fit the male and female connectors I have on the grapple, but that’s ok, as it’s the only fittings I have problems with. Took a half day in my shop, and another couple hours to prime and paint. Work just as it should. I just wrap a rag around the tool and fitting to catch what little fluid come out. Even center drilled the threaded rod to capture the pin on the connector. No more cussing at getting my grapple connected
