[AT] 3 point quick hitch

[Mike Sloane]

I have one that I got when they were on sale last Fall. I have used it 
on my Ford 860 with a 7' rear blade for snow and on my International 240 
Utility with a Woods 6' finish mower. The main advantage in using it 
with the Woods was that the tumbling bar on the mower was too long with 
just the standard three point arms, and the quick hitch gave me the 
extra 3" or so I that I needed.

The construction seems adequate for what I paid, and neither the Ford on 
the IH tractors put all that much strain on it. The only problem I had 
was that the pins for the lower arms were not usable, so I had to use 
standard pins with "ouchie" clips. I don't recall why the supplied pins 
didn't work out. I haven't really tried the "quick change" function all 
that much, but it seemed to work OK for hooking up the two implements.
