Here is an implement removal tool I made for my 739. It is very simple and effective. Without it I found it almost impossible to separate the implements from the tractor.

Nibbana, That's a pretty neat tool! Nice job, very creative. But with all due respect its completely unnecessary unless someone has left tractor in rain for years and quick hitch is seized in place. In that case, yes we have to sometimes remove using a pry bar. But that is an extreme case and fairly rare for us and we work on this equipment 5+ days per week. My reasons for getting into this is to make sure folks understand it is ABSOLUTELY as easy as you see in the BCS videos to take implements on and off, IF all the stuff I talked about in this thread is taken into account by user and user takes some time to practice this. I think what happens is life is super busy for everyone and I doubt folks spend much if any time "learning" how to quickly mount/dis-mount implements. We have a few minutes here and there so we grab the BCS and want to "work" and move on to what's next, and perhaps unintentionally ignore some basics and maintenance aspects which will actually save us time and energy/stamina in the long run.
Back to quick hitch issues...The other issue can be because the quick hitch is installed on implement incorrectly. When installing/tightening the male quick hitch, its necessary to take your female quick hitch (off tractor) and "lock it in place", onto Male QH, with pin "down" while tightening your male quick hitch onto implement. I bet some dealers don't do this at all. Also, there are times when there is a tolerance issue with a brand new male or female quick hitch and even though brand new, I won't use them because they don't fit correctly. So we want to start with a female and male quick hitch that fit together nicely WHILE THEY ARE IN MY HANDS. If user can't get them to fit together (and pin drop) when clean and while in your hands, then you surely won't have an easy time trying to get them to work once installed on tractor/implement. Important to note here...do this testing fitting WITH the 2 bolts in place!!! (while in your hands).
Lastly, and this is NOT something you would find in any BCS manual...It helps ALOT (some implements much more than others, and some implements not applicable, but most BCS brand implements are) to take the 2 bolts that fasten your male quick hitch to implement and take to your bench grinder and take a small amount of metal off the bolt head (around the sides/outer edge of bolt, which decreases overall diameter of bolt head, just slightly). Just take off a very small amount. This is applicable ONLY to BCS quick hitch, NOT applicable to Grillo quick hitch. But the reason to do this is because these bolt heads have to "seat" inside the small holes/openings on your female quick hitch. When you tighten down your male quick hitch, if it moves just slightly to left or right then the bolt heads will rub against the hole/opening in the left/right side of your female quick hitch and make it harder or impossible to mount/dismount Implement. Since there may be too many lawyers out there, I must state the following: "ALL OF MY ADVICE ON HERE (TRACTORBYNET.COM) IS FREE. NO ONE HAS PAID US FOR THIS. IT IS NOT SANCTIONED BY BCS. WE TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANYONE PERFORMING OR TRYING ANY OF OUR TIPS WHETHER RESULTS ARE GOOD OR BAD. YOU WOULD BE DOING SO AT YOUR OWN RISK. WHATEVER YOU DO, BE SAFE AND USE COMMON SENSE. WE SURELY DON'T WANT ANYONE GETTING HURT. IN GENERAL ITS NEVER A GOOD IDEA TO MODIFY ANYTHING ON ANY OF THIS EQUIPMENT WITHOUT CONSULTING THE EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER. HOWEVER, HAVING SAID ALL THAT I BELIEVE ADULTS SHOULD DO WHAT THEY WANT WITH THEIR OWN EQUIPMENT AND LIVES. JUST BE SAFE AND KNOW YOU ARE DOING IT AT YOUR OWN RISK IF MODIFYING ANYTHING AND NOT DIRECTED TO DO SO BY MANUFACTURER."
Me personally, I am an authorized BCS and Grillo dealer. Not mentioning this for purposes of sales, only so anyone reading this wonders where we get our information, now they know. We trust in God to provide our sales, so no worries. But hopefully someone reading in this thread might have an easier time with quick hitch going forward.
I will surely go over all this in video form very soon. I understand there are many users who have problems with this, but it should not be that way. I will post in this thread once I get the video. Maybe next week....
