Is there a way to let the hitch float? When I put a blade on the back it is hard to do any finish work.

The operator's manual will have instructions and pictures of the pin you need to pull to let the Fast Hitch
float. We had a 450 with FH and one winter day Dad had me try to scrape up 2-3 inches of snow in the
barnyard, and We had a B-I-G barnyard. Was easy to turn around 42 ft semi-trailers to load out truckloads of
hogs & cattle.
On the left draft arm up towards the front end of the hitch there is a pin you remove to let the hitch
float, pull the pin, put it in the toolbox for safe keeping.
I had to constantly adjust the FH up and down to walk the thin line between spinning both rear tires and
only scraping the top inch or two of snow. We had a 6 ft SERVICE brand blade, it pivoted but didn't tilt
side-to-side and I was constantly spinning one rear wheel or the other. Adding weight to the actual blade
moldboard itself is another possibility.

I bet that did take a long time to clean that off. And you were right there was a pin on the left side. Works great now. Thanks so much
