Re: Pat\'s quick change system
</font><font color="blue" class="small">( I don't agree about the space bar, that was bent within moments on mine, very flimsy.)</font>
It shouldn't even be on the tractor that long John. It's one and only purpose is to hold the arms at a fixed distance when first mating PEC to the implement lift pins. After that, you take it off . I've got 30 acres of diagonal here, so the idle implements are never sitting on level ground. Without the spacer, somebody would have to hold the lift arms while I backed the tractor; a concept that sorta ruins the whole idea of an EASY change system.
That said, I suppose the clips that come with it might fool one into believing they're to hold the spacer bar in place permanently. In my mind, they're superfluous.
