Seized Quick Attach Pin

[GRickG]

My 2022 SVL 75-2 Skid Steer has a seized left attachment Quick Attach pin. Any suggestions? The pin in the down/locked position with the bucket on.

My three failures: a 1500W rotary hammer, Boom pushing down against a socket on top of a bottle jack, 4 pound hammer striking an iron bar. Each with Kroil penetrating oil from the top. Now I parked the SVL on a hill/ledge so I could lower the bucket enough to seep Kroil down the slanted pin from the lower end. I will re-apply the hammer after a couple days of seeping Kroil.

Can I torch heat the pin socket near the grease fitting?

I don’t see that you really have a choice but to use the old “flame wrench” at this point.

You seem to have tried everything that you can/should.

How long has “it” been on? Seems awfully strange that corrosion could/might be the problem, but I suppose that anything is possible.

Is it possible that something got bent?

Got pics?

If you beat on the pin and mushroom the head you are SOL. Use hydraulics to press out the pin.

Must be you haven’t been using the grease fitting?
