[Farmall] 3 pt hitch

[Mike Sloane]

I very much doubt that a 460 could handle something like that. And even 
if it could, the front wheels would be off the ground long before you 
reached the limit of the itch's capacity. :-)

Those big tree spades were intended to be mounted on much larger 
machines than the 460/560 series.
