IH 1190 cutter

Can any one tell how this hooks to the tractor? I got it with a IH 1190 cutter.
Thanks

Gary I believe you have a hammerstrap hitch, if your tongue in the mower has a ball like a three point hitch the large pin on one end the mower drops down on that. The rest of it will slide over end of drawbar and bolt or pin there. It is for letting the mower twist at drawbar in all directions in rough terrain and tight corners.

Gary. I had a IH 1190 9ft conditioner for about 20 years. What that is for when you make short turns it lets the cutter swing to the side more so the PTO is not having to make a hard bend to keep the U joints from chattering. I can't remember just how it attached to the drawbar, I know mine had one bolt thru it, but I only used that piece for a year or two. I just ran it with a pin with a nut on the bottom thru the drawbar on the tractor an the cutter tongue with the hole on it. If you have a hammer strap on your tractor, that will work also and not use the this part you have pictured.
