Allis/Farmall/Jd/ ETC Traction Control ?

IH fast hitch went to hydraulic control as an option on 460/560's. It was called teledepth. A rod on the left side hooked to the fast hitch lift arm. Went forward to a bellcrank and up to the fast hitch valve. In the teledepth FH valve was a set of 3 small bevel gears that are controlled by the valve control handle on the dash. The center gear of the three moved a spool in the valve It worked but was a bit mickey mouse. The bevel gears would occasionally strip off the teeth or shear the pin that held them in the cross shaft. Which led to the miserable job of re-timing them. Yes they are timed. And then there is all the floppy linkage/yoke beam on the back that I am sure got loose shortly after new. It's impossible to back a wagon with a 560 as the fast hitch beam is the drawbar and it flops from one side to the other. It wasnt until the 706/806 came out that fast hitch finally was at it's best. But by then it was obsolete in the AG world. I own 460's thru 806's. Love the 706/806 fast hitch. I also own WD's thru D17. The snap-tach was a far simpler set up. 

The only time i ever had trouble hooking up snap coupler implements is if i parked them on uneven ground. If they’re flat and level, I don’t even need to leave the seat on a wd45.

I’ve been pretty disgruntled with 3 pt hitch equipment before though. Especially if the arms don’t extend or there isn’t winging adjustment on both arms, or if there’s no rear control for the 3pt. (All these points are excellent traits of the 100 series tractors)

Shorten the chain 2 links. WD45, correct ??

You surely know to push a little in reverse then depress lever to get unhooked? Hand clutch reverse,left foot depress lever, release hand clutch and slip into fwd gear (3rd usually) and drive away. For those who insist on foot clutch shifting I don't know how your left foot can do 2 things at once..... It works good here.

I know, if your implement depth (a plow) is set quite deep, the tongue eye is too tall and puts the snap coupler bell on a bind. Same way if the tongue is too low. Ideally, the eye should be at the correct height for the easiest unhooking as you back into the implement and pull down on the handle.

The A-C snap-coupler bell doesn't have quite as wide of a swath as that wishbone frame on a fast hitch. Not to say it doesn't get down in the mud sometimes, but I don't think as much of a hinderance as the IH system.
