[QUOTE="TriHonu, post: 92676, member: 897"]   I have had the same issue with my 4in1. You have a few options: 1. Add a T-fitting and a small needle valve. You can open the valve and release the pressure before you try to connect. Some Bradco backhoe attachments came with a valve built in to do this. With the hoe stored sitting on the stabilizers for a while, pressure will build in the hydraulics. 2. Try a set of [URL='http://www.fluidpowersolutions.ca/pdf/Parker%20Quick%20Couplings.pdf'][B][COLOR=blue]Parker IF Series flat face couplers[/COLOR][/B][/URL] (See page 14). These are flat face couplers you can connect under pressure (up to 2900 psi residual). 3. I have 90 degree fittings going into the couplers on my 4in1. This allows me to use a lever against the 90 degree elbow to get the first fitting latched. [/QUOTE]
