Snow Packed in Quick Connect Hydraulic Connector

Hello from the bitter cold of Northern Ohio.

Yesterday, we had +40 MPH gusts and blew a 3ft drift down my entire driveway. Good time. Anyway to get it all cleaned up and hopefully avoid in the future. I took off my 54 Plow and attached the bucket. I am using the amazing Artiallian Plow adapter with extension hoses so when i changed backl to the bucket, I had 2 Q/C fittings left in the open. on the frame of the FEL. Instead of using the JD caps, I said to hell with it and started moving snow.

Well..... after and hour, I went to put the plow back on and the discconects were packed with Snow. I dug as much out as I could, but they still had some in the bottom. I ended up using a torch very qucikly to melt the snow and hopefully not the o-ring.

Anyone have a better idea in case I am an ID10T and don't put the caps on next time?

Thanks,
Thomas
