Quick Hitches Quick Hitch worth it?

Right,
Telescopic lift arm ends a) come standard on newer tractors anyway b) solve 90% of the hook-up hassle if you don't come in dead straight and on axis.
Another way is to put the front up on the bucket edge and do some curl/dump for fine positioning (-:

Rear accessible control point; The standard one is just between the seat and the right wheel fender (-: I can lean over to get to it.
Come to think of it my little Kukje has another input to the position control, in addition to the draft control, supposedly for hooking a sensor from a tiller to.
I haven't looked into it much, but it seems ready for something very much like a motorcycle brake cable. I guess I could use that for fiddling/twiddling the lift arm height while back there, but it doesn't seem necessary.

well mine is a cab model, so by adding the rear control lever, i dont have to keep opening the cab door and adjusting the arms

That's right handy!
My 4400 is an open station, so reaching over the fender isn't a big deal...but I can see it would be a PITA with a cab tractor. Anyway, I don't swap out implements that often. Since the tractor mows most of the summer, the RFM stays on for weeks (up to a couple months) at a time. Not much brush cutting anymore, but I cut that field once a year so the cutter goes on for a day or two. Then, after the mowing season, the ballast box goes on for the winter. Maybe half a dozen to eight change-overs a year, typically.

So, how do those telescoping links lock in place, once the implement is hooked up?

after i hooked up the splitter, with top link in place also, i simply raised it up, then it slid back in place and locked
