What happens here

The operator inspects the damaged hydraulic hose, noting that it has ruptured. The quick-connect fitting is detached from the machine, and the damaged hose is removed from the attachment. The process of replacing the hose with a new one (implied) and reconnecting the quick-connect fitting is then carried out. The presenter points out the importance of hose keepers and protective sleeves for preventing such damage.

Goal: Restore hydraulic function to the attachment.
