One more fast hitch question but need a photo

Rex Simpkins · Apr 9, 2014

Still working on this Super C with fast hitch C-20 plow, I have put the link in place that runs forward to the hydro touch unit but it is hitting the underside of the platform( it was bent some before I got it)--- can someone who has one hooked up take a photo of the link and its relationship to the platform so I know where to bend mine.

Pictures are not the best. Make sure it is not riding up on the bracket that is bolted to the brake drum if you decided to leave it on. Mine will only go on one way as the holes in each end are different. Small hole to the front. The touch control arm is almost all the way forward.

What is the purpose of having that little piece that hooks to the brake drum for?? I bought a FH system to install on my SC, and I couldn't figure out what it was for??? I don't have it hooked up, and my FH works just fine?? Bryce

It holds the draw bar in one position so it stays level from side to side. If I remember right, it is used to level the gauge wheel like on a plow. I have mine hooked up in the picture because I am using a rotary mower. I use it to level the mower from side to side. The other people on here know more about the uses of it than I do. Perhaps someone will have a better answer for you.

Great photos thanks a lot, I am riding a little closer to the gussets so I think your photo shows me exactly what I need to do, again thanks

The little piece holds the hitch in a fixed position so you can use the touch control arms for cultivators. You remove the heavy bar shown in the pictures, and install that link to the brake drum.

The heavy bar allows you to tilt the hitch side-to-side so that the bottom of your furrow is level when you're plowing.

As an aside if anyone has one of those bars they want to sell cheap, I need one. The fast hitch I bought for the Super C didn't come with one.

The clip attached to the top of the drum? Isn't that the clutch pedal return spring pickup?
