I have a 560 and love the fast hitch. I have purchased the 3 pt adapters and they are not as slick as one might think.

First, there are two styles of these adapters. One set comes straight out and the other set angle up. The set I purchased come straight out and end up mounting the implements too low. On some of my implements I was able to lower the mounting pins to accommodate but not all.

Second, since the width of your arms are fixed, you have to be careful when buying older 3pt implements. Some are too wide or too narrow to work. This also can make hooking up implements tricky, but not impossible.

Third, the top link on these adapters is somewhat suspect. Never seems to work quite right with a back blade and most of the times requires a really short top link.

Well, that's been my experiences, thus, I try to only use fast hitch implements!
