How standard is a category 1 3ph?

i wonder if you can just turn around your sway anchors, (part no. 20 in the parts diagram), so the
loop is further away?
i agree the "handles" can probably go or be bent out of the way, they look like guards.

Yeah GEO has us newbies very confused.... I agree with LD1, the 20" we cannot figure out.
I'll try to convince my GF to bend the handles up. Let's see how much sledgehammer is needed here ;-)

The sway anchors cannot be turned anymore, they're on maximum, and will not get any smaller. You can see in one picture, that the anchor is fully turned (did a small 'unturn' for the pic), and still the fitting is hanging down from the axle is attached to....

i was referring to that "axle" part you mentioned. it slides over a shaft and i was wondering
if you could reverse that part, i think it means removing a tire though to slide that shaft out.
I tried to show in this pic:

Ok, very clear now Dutch445! I'll have a look later (it's raining now....). I think the wheel has to come off to access the axle though. Means no quick change than back to the original config. Will let you know!

Personally I dont like the turnbuckle stabilizers on the inside. With them on the inside, EVERYTIME you change implements, you have to loosen them to get the implement off.

While turnbuckles arent the greatest thing on the market, I like my kubotas on the outside. Cause with the implement mounted, and stabilizers tight, you dont have to loosen them to take the arms off for a implement swap. And if the other attachments have the same pin-to-pin measurement, you dont have to adjust them at all.

If it were mine, I would just drill another hole in the lower arm and be done with it. It sorta looks like you already have a slight depression a litter farther out from the current hole. I would drill it right there:thumbsup:

Sooner or later, you're going to have to make a new hole in your tractor. Sounds like this is the time!

Do the pins face inward or outward?

As most may not know, limited cat 1 hitches really don't like to go down to 20" cat 0 spacing. It's because the lower draft arms are short, formed, and lack the nice long swing arc of a 40 horse cat 1 tractor. Here is my cat 0 flail mower mounted on the limited cat 1 hitch of my 'R.

You can get extra long pins for the lift arms. That may allow the tiller to work.
