How low is your Quick Hitch?

Yes, that was my concern. Forgetting about it and dragging it through the mud. I understand it pays to get quite low for some implements, but this is overkill for everything I have. By about 6 inches.

As I said earlier, if your links are adjustable repin them to the higher setting.

As for forgetting about it and dragging it, you already had that problem before you installed the QH.

To prevent dragging ballast or other implements on to low QH....

On some tractors with 3pt position control the lower limit can be adjusted.

On some tractors with 3pt position control the lower limit can be adjusted.

The problem being discussed here is from owners with tractors that don't have position control. The 3pt leaks down without their knowledge.

If you have a simple (old school) control, and don't need height limiting, you could use the stop for lower limiting, or get (or make) another for BOTH.

Yes that sounds good. I have one stop on there, currently set from my last "box blade" run. i will just adjust it a bit lower. It will leak down, but slooooowly with such a low weight.

Get a carriage bolt, flat washer, split/lock washer and a wing nut and you have a lower travel limit.
