OPERATION
5.1 3-Point Quick Hitch
Our 3-Point Quick Hitch is designed to connect to a
Quick-Attach Coupler making mounting and
dismounting your mower easier. The 3-Point Quick
Hitch is also designed to connect the cutter to a
tractor’s three-point linkage without the use of a
Quick-Attach Coupler.
5.2 Connecting Mower - Lift Type (Quick Hitch)
Crushing Hazard between Quick-Hitch and Implement. Do not allow anyone to stand
between the Quick-Hitch and implement during hook-up operations. Never operate the
hydraulic 3-point lift controls while someone is directly behind the tractor.
1. Make certain the implement’s upper and lower
hitch pins are secured.
2. Lower the tractor’s 3-point lift until the three
Quick-Hitch hooks are lower than the
implements hitch pins. Carefully back the
tractor to align the Quick-Hitch hooks under the
implement’s hitch pins.
3. Slowly raise the tractor’s 3-point lift until the
lower Quick-hitch hooks lock into place over the
implement’s 3-point hitch pins.
IMPORTANT: Make certain the implement’s top 3-
point hitch pin is captured by the Quick-Hitch top 3-
point hook. If not consult your Quick Hitch manual
for required adjustment.
