Ok I have a small tractor. Its a Yanmar F 14D. I bought a 4 ft box blade and a5 ft rake today. Both are brand new. I wasn't thinking. Now I have new attachments that won't fit. The hookups on both of them are way too big for my tractor. Is there a way I can use these? If I spread the arms out to fit, both arms will hit the tires. I am new to this tractor stuff so be easy on me.:)

Welcome to TBN:D

Often you can turn the pins to the inside on the implement to help with the "to wide" problem.

Sounds like you have what is called "Category 0" (zero).
It also probably requires pins of a smaller diameter (5/8")
The attached word document shows the specs but I'm not sure that all Cat 0 stuff was ever standardized....some were propriatery dimensions, I believe.

Someone here has to have a little "Mitsubishi ZERO" (a little WWII pun, har-d-har, har!)

For the smaller tractors...many of the implements are now available for "sub compact" (sometimes abbreviated as "sct" models) tractors as opposed to "compact" tractors. An honest mistake....Maybe your dealer will exchange them if you talk with them? Worth a try.

Or, as was said above...you may have Cat 0 pins....best to check first!

on my 1600 its cat1 pins but the spacing is considered narrow if you buy full size turn the pins in also you can by king cutter products labeled XB there are narrow and also a bit lighter

There is something called a Cat 1N (narrow) too....which it sounds like you've got on your 1600

Might be able to upgrade your 3pt hitch to cat 1. It sure would be easier purchasing new implements. My little 15hp Mitsubishi is cat 1.
3 point hitch
