Removing the grapple from the John Deer 3025e

This is a practical how-to on removing a grapple attachment from a John Deere 3025E, not a review or spec walkthrough. It covers positioning the grapple for safe storage (opened flat so cylinder arms stay protected), pulling the retaining pins, and the trick to releasing hydraulic line pressure before disconnecting hoses. Useful for current 3025E owners swapping to a loader bucket, less so for shoppers comparing tractors.
