Slip hitch question

Recommended Posts

gt14rider

I made a hitch for my york rake. I don't have a lift cable for slip hitch yet, would it do any damage if I tow it around with out a cable?

No damage to the tractor, but the blacktop may suffer some scratches.

Just raise the rake arm and use the wheels. Those are heavy. You would break a cable or your back trying to lift it.

I have been getting some work done around the house.  Got two decks done and had a retaining wall and landscaping

 done, now I get to play with the York rake. 

Works great, need some weight up front.  When this thing digs in it's hard to steer.

Here is how I hold a lift hitch in place.

The chain clip is attached to the receiver hitch bracket.
