Detatch and Store Equipment

What happens here
To store the equipment after use, first, detach the trailer by reversing the hitching process (release coupler, lift trailer off ball). Then, slide the hitch pin out of the skid steer trailer hitch receiver, allowing you to remove the trailer ball mount. The video shows the ball mount being placed into a storage compartment on a separate dump trailer. Finally, unlock the Bob-Tach wedges (by pressing the 'Bob-Tach Wedges Up' switch, not explicitly shown but implied) and detach the skid steer trailer hitch receiver from the skid steer. The receiver can then be stored in a safe place, such as another trailer's toolbox, as shown.
Goal: Disengage and store the trailer, ball mount, and hitch receiver
