I just purchased the easy change system, installed it on my NH TK100. That was pretty easy and had no problems. Then I backed up to my flail mower to connect it and I could not get it connected. It is a Rears 7'6" flail mower. It appears as if the easy change hook is about 1" too high to fit between the pin and the horizontal pipe on the flail mower. The pin is above a 4" continous horizontal pipe that runs full length of the mower. This mower has not been altered and came from the factory this way. It seems as if I have to cut off part of the easy change system hook in order to fit in between the pin and the pipe. I hope I have made it clear as to what my problem is. I have not called Pat's on this but thought I would post my problem here to see if anyone else had this problem.
I just had a thought. Could it be since my tractor is a crawler tractor and not rubber wheel, it sits down lower and the lower arms do not drop as low as a wheel tractor? If my tractor was elevated and my lower arms dropped lower, then they would be on an angle and not bottom out on the horizontal pipe before they hooked around the pins. Just a thought.
