This is something that OJs post about feedimg cattle got me thinking about today.....You guys never use autohitches on your tractors....nearly all the tractors in the British isles are fitted or retrofitted with these hitches. We hardly ever have jacks on our trailers or trailed machinery, if we do they are usually seized up due to not being used! All trailers are simply fitted with a stand to set the trailer down on so as to keep the tongue off the ground
Ferguson engineers invented the first Pick-up hitch(PUH) for use with the trail manure spreader. So the loader tractor could drop off the spreader and fill it with the front end loader then pick up the spreader and cart it to the field without getting dirty boots! It was more of an add on accessory than part of the tractor back then, but many are still being used today on small farms
This is the American made puh for the manure spreader
Here is a hitch fitted to a 4040 deere....
And one on some type of Case IH......?
This type is made by Dromone engineering in Ireland to fit the new JCB tractors
You will notice some pull bars have a hook on one end and a clevis on the other.....So we can pick up either a ring hitch or a clevis hitch
This is just something I would hate to have to do without. It saves so mach time and effort and yet every time tractors are exported to America the hitches are removed and sold on pallets as spares.
I just thought some of you may be interested in what we do different over here?

My husband Ben came in the garage one rainy day to see if he could "help". Well if you knew Ben you wouldn't want him anywhere near your spray gun, fiberglass or bondo! So I pulled out the 2 old yucky looking magne
