Hi guys I recently bought a used 870k wheeled loaded from a member from this forum. I am wanting to now fix a hydraulic hose that has a slight hole in it for the tilt for the bucket. I am wandering if I can simply move the brass collar and pull the hose off cut it and slide it back on? I contacted Tang but he hasn't gotten back to me and was wanting to do the fix today.

Not familiar with their fittings, but yeah that should work fine if there's plenty of length to do so. You may have to cut the hose from the fitting if it's double barbed, trying to pull it off will stretch the hose bad & maybe could break the fitting too.

That makes sense to cut it off the fitting thanks.
