THE THREE-POINT hitch is the farm and power equipment's manufacturing industry standard for a hydraulically actuated mechanical linkage to attach, adjust, raise, lower and pull implements with powered transporters (tractors). At first, there were tractors. Then there were implements. Each new manufacturer coming onto the market developed a different way of attaching (hitching) implements. Through the early years of tractor development (1900s-1960s), a tractor purchaser had to purchase the same brandimplements as the tractor to ensure compatibility. This caused a need for many complicated, unsafe and clumsy adapters to come on to the market.
