They won't connect no matter how much pressure is applied. The female fitting hits something solid about 1/8-inch shy of full on. Just a guess, but the balls might be hitting against the flare on the male fitting.
The M7040 has 300 hours. The LA1153 loader has been on and off about 6 times, and has been used a grand total of about 1 hour, never in dusty conditions.

Any ideas? My next step is a drift or spanner behind the female fitting and serious bangs with a 3-pound hammer.
