Bush Hogging with Yanmar's?

Hoye has the quick disconnect (push button) type for 50$, I bought one from them earlier this year and it works great. (No more grinding gears when I use my finish mower)

I purchased an ORC for my YM1700 and use it with my bushhog. Works great and is much safer to operate. Bought it at Agri-Supply for $35.00.

Ditto what the others said.. you have to remove the zerk, and the plug.. rotate it to line the holes up.. then drive the pin out to remove. When installing.. make sure you drive the pin in enough so that it doesn't hang on the housing when rotating. Sometimes those pins are hard to see.. clean that hole out with some spray solvent of choice and probe around for it.. Old ones can rust if not lubed.. even disintegrate.. so check it every now and then...

Thanks, I went look and found what y'all described. I didn't remove it thought, but it was well lubed.
