I looked for ways to do this but didn't find much. So I decided to post what I came up with. I used a weed burner and some old paving bricks to make an oven. An old heavily worn draw bar from an 830 made a
good lever. The lever was mounted on the short railroad tie retaining wall near my shop. Then when the arm was hot enough I got it pinned to the lever on one end. I quickly secured the other end to the
railroad tie. The draft link then came apart with just mild force on the lever. I did try the lever before heating, but that would not do it. The only casualty is the spring on the pin that locks the
telescoping arm in place. Three point hitches live a tough life.
