How do the hydraulic couplers come loose? I've never had them off and I'm taking the loader off and can't get the couplers to move. They are rusty no doubt, I've sprayed penetrating oil on them. Is the outer collar supposed to slide back like an air hose chuck? Thanks in advance!

There are multiple types of hydraulic couplings,,Yes. Although once when I was a teenager I unhooked a disc in a hurry and forgot the hoses. The couplers did unhook when I drove the tractor away with no noticable damage.
one of them is called a "Breakaway Coupling"
It is truly designed to release under enough pull.
Researching the fitting might result in finding out the fitting is a breakaway type??
On another note,, when I got my IH tractor, it had rear hydraulic connections
The tractor was 25 years old,,
the connectors were in such bad shape from weathering,, when I took out the protective rubber caps, several of the small balls fell out.
I just took the fitting to a local Parker store, he sold me an exact replacement.
