My new tractor has FF couplers on the grapple hoses at the grapple. The other ends at the 3rd function valve are Pioneer. For years on other tractors I have never had more than a drop or 2 of oil leak from a Pioneer coupler when removing. These flat face couplers sometimes lose what appears to be an ounce of fluid when removing/installing. I have never had oil stains on my gravel area by my shed, now I do. I may take them off and switch back to Pioneer.
Am I alone? Thanks.....
Edit, just came in from the shed, I have a 8” stain on the wooden shed floor from the couplers now. Leaking from the couplers, not the hose fittings. It’s been in the shed for 6 days now.
