    Looking at the parts book, there's a jump hose kit, where you install jumper hoses to loop the oil and a grease gun adapted to release the parking brakes. If it's an emergency you can probably remove the final covers, unbolt the motors and pull them out far enough to disengage. Then either pressurize the parking brakes to release them (there may be a hand emergency pump on the machine) or physically remove the drive hub from the brake or the brake unit itself. Keep in mind that once everything is disengaged you have something like a 25 ton roller skate, no brakes unless you can still operate the bucket. Go slow and keep an eye on the finals make sure nothing is floating around loose that can hang up in the gears since you've pulled stuff out. Disclaimer, I have not done this on this machine, just using similar experiences along with what I can see in the parts pages.
