Using Fast Hitch Implements

LRRifleman · May 25, 2011

Hello!

I just acquired my first "to be used NOW" fasthitch implements, a fast hitch disk harrow from a Model 200. I am in the process of making the spacers to use this disk on my International Model 340 Utility.

My question is, would I need to put counterbalancing weights on the front of my tractor to lift this implement, or should the tractor have enough counterbalancing weight to begin with?

Thanks!

It will be light on the front. But not excessively so. It will do Wheelies if you pop the clutch in 1, 2, 3, or 4th. Just being careful will be fine. If you find it uncomfortable, putting 250# on a front bracket will be about right.

Now that will depend on the driver and the terrain. I would make some wts that bolt to the front bolster or even wts for the front wheels.
