1995 JD 6400
I know this is a dumb question but I just bought this property which came with a 95 JD 6400. I don't have a manual yet and have never owned a tractor before. It has a MX 15 attached and I don't know how to disconnect the lines going to the bush hog. Looks like something needs to release the ball bearings inside the socket. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

There are no dumb questions. ;)

You just slide/push the outside ring that captures the ball bearings towards the tractor. Do the opposite to reconnect the coupling.

Make sure you lower it down all the way first, or you will have a hard time getting the lines to reconnect afterwards.

I'm not sure where the ring would be on these? download_20150618_120159.jpegdownload_20150618_120213.jpeg

It's obviously something simple and I don't see it so its killing me. I will have to go into hiding after I find the answer.

I suspect that the ring is what the flip up cover mounts to

So just pull hard on the hose to remove it?
