Hello to everyone I recently purchased a 1999 case 1840 with about 1900 hours in very good shape. The only things I can find wrong are some leaking hydraulic lines which I am having a hard time replacing as I can not get the fittings to unscrew on a few of them even when heated up with a torch. The thing I am worried about is breaking the fittings if I go after them with a set of breaker bars and crows foot. I should mention it looks like someone put them on with red thread locker why I have no idea seems like over kill. The ones I have replaced I put back together with Teflon tape which I hope should be fine and not seize up if needing to be replaced. By the way can anyone tell me am I able to lock the arms in the up position on this loader as there is one I will only be able to get at with them up. Have ordered the service manual but it's not here yet thanks for any replies and help.
