My main problem is coordinating the twist of the coupler to get the shaft to lock because the shaft shield is in the way. I saw a neat new version shield in a tractor dealer that allows you to slide the shield back out of the way for an unobstructed hook-up.

I could not find a link to what I am talking about.

Off-topic: Is there such a thing as a hydraulically operated mower?
Why sure. Power-Trac's, and skid-steers use them all the time. They are mostly on the front of the machines. The center picture is a hydraulic flail mower, which is what I have. The first one is a brush cutter, and the last one is a finish mower.
