T64 how to remove non coupler hose fitting on the hyd pump

[wat704]

Helping a neighbor with a hydralic issue on his T64. There is a slow leak coming up around the one hose on top of the hydralic pump that is not secured by a coupler. I assume it must be held with some type of snapring? How do you release this end to check the o rings?

I'm not familiar with that machine but a photo of the connection would help.

I have run into what is an "Aeroquip" connector that requires a "U" shaped tool, of the correct size, to release the connection.

Here is a video that shows the tool, but not how it works, at about 3.25 minutes in:


I have replaced these hoses on my machine and even with the correct tool they can be difficult.

I found the hose and coupler online. Attached are the photos.
