How to connect a small trailer to a Iseki TU1600

[marcelPL]

The bottom of the differential has 3 big holes for M12 or M14 bolts. It's really easy to connect some flat piece of steel, and weld this 'hitch' onto it.

I have the same thing, but adapted for the Ursus connections that are used here.

Sorry no photo/image available now.

You are all telling the poster to use his 3 point hitch to tow a trailer. Yes this may or may not work. If you use it you must be aware the front of the trailer is not held down by the 3 point hitch. If the rear of the trailer is overloaded the hitch may pop up. The best way if the tractor has one is to use the draw bar with a ball attached. The draw bar is missing on the tractor in the photo.

Not really, the poster asked about the 3 point hitch which is available to buy from various places, while you are correct,
I have the ball and 3 point linkage hitch, used wisely there is no issues, for me the 3 point hitch gives more room for manoeuvre as with the ball its tucked quite close to the tractor back end, then I am using it on my tandem trailer so no issues with tipping,

These small tractors didn't come with a drawbar, not a 3 pt hitch for that matter. Those you see with a 3 pt, are aftermarket kits available out there.

All these tractors did back in the day, was carrying a tiller with their proprietary mount for rice fields. Mitsubishi, Kubota, Yanmar, Iseki and some others are all like this.

That being said, either the poster will fabricate something to be used as a drawbar or he can just get the top link mount and one of those 3 pt drawbars. If the hitch poping up is an issue, he can always block the movement with a chain or something.
