Pats category 1 quick chnage 3-point tractor hitch
Used Pat's Easy Change System Includes everything in picture.
INCLUDES OPTIONAL Stabilizer Bar
Works with Category 1 3-Point Hitches
Regardless of the make, model, age, or size of your compact tractor, Pat's Easy Change System will work with your tractor-so long as you meet the following criteria:
* Fits lift arms 2-3 1/4" tall.
* Requires approximately 4" of straight arm.
Almost all compact tractors from Kubota, John Deere, New Holland, Kioti, Case-IH, Cub Cadet, Massey Ferguson, Century, Yanmar and other brands met these criteria.
Category 1 hitches usually go up to around 50 horsepower tractors, and then you start to see category 2 hitches. The difference is in the size of the pin, with category 1 hitches using a 7/8" pin, and category 2 hitches using a 1 1/8" pin.
If you don't know which category hitch you have, check your tractor owner's manual, or post a message in our discussion forums, and ask for advice.
Also available is an optional stabilizer bar that keeps your lift 3-point hitch arms fixed to a specific width. This can make attaching even easier if all of your implements have the same width between lift points, but is not required with Pat's Easy Change System.
Take a look at the photo to the right, and you'll see how Pats' Easy Change
System works when installed (shown with optional stabilizer bar).
Pat's Easy Change System installs in just minutes. The easy change link ends fit over the ends of your lift arms and instantly transform your standard 3-point hitch lift arms into a quick hitch.
Pat's Easy Change System is attached with a pin through the ball and a u-bolt for stability.
With the lift arms down and the Pat's Easy Change System hooks open, you back into the implement and raise the lift arms to hook the pins on the implement. All you have to do then is close the latch, attach the top link, and attach your PTO shaft if needed. Most implement changes take less than a minute!
Pat's Easy Change System is constructed with the high-quality steel, and each individual unit undergoes a rigorous quality control check before leaving the factory. You can rest assured that Pat's Easy Change System is a high-quality item that won't fall apart-dozens of TractorByNet.com users currently have Pat's Easy Change System installed, and no quality issues have been reported to date.
