What happens here

The presenter improvises to overcome the spinning bolt issue. He uses a long pry bar to wedge against the bolt head on the inaccessible backside of the actuator block. This provides enough counter-pressure to allow him to successfully loosen and remove the two nuts securing the block. After removing the nuts, he carefully disconnects the quick-attach hydraulic lines from the actuator block, allowing him to pull the block away from the tractor's frame.

Goal: Successfully remove the actuator block and disconnect hydraulic lines
