I have been a case collector for a long time. All my tractors are pre Eagle Hitch so I have been using a 700 Ford for many years for moving round bales. I've been waiting patienly for a eagle hitch DC tractor to move bales with when I came across a big 400. Yep, I bought it and love it. I had to turn one of the pins to the inside to hitch my bale fork. But, the problem now is:
the upper hitch point seems to be a bit too high. When I lower the hay fork, it points up and when I raise the fork, it points down.
I have been screwing the upper arm in when I raise and screw it out when I lower the fork.

Is there an easy fix??? or do I buy a cylinder for the upper arm??

I have solved this problem by using 2 pieces of 2 inch by 1/4 inch by 14 inch steel welded to the top of the top link on the implement. Drill a series of 3/4 inch holes in the top of the bars so you have a selection of holes to choose the ideal height for the top link. I find this is stronger and puts less stress than using the PTO cover mount and allows use of the PTO... Gene

add a couple inches to the top link of your bale spear if you cant find pto mounting. might need i2 inches or so so linkage geometry is abouut same as if you had pto mounting.

I also have a Case 400. What you need is a special case part that goes over the PTO shaft and has a place for the top link to hook up to. I have also used a cylinder for the top link. The PTO cover can be a little hard to locate. Seen a few on eBay every no and then.
