Tractor Hitch
The AMADAS RMH1000 and RMH1000M are
compatible with
the following hitches,
depending on the position of the lower hitch
points and orientation of the pins:
CAT III, CAT IVN, CAT IV
The following sections show how to position
the hitch points and orient the pins for each
category of hitch.
Attaching the Tractor
1. Attach the tractor according to the category
of the hitch and top or bottom link as
shown on the next two pages.
2. Adjust the tractor’s top link so that the
RMH1000M’s forks sit level with the ground
when the unit is lowered, as shown below.
NOTE! Sway block spacers are
recommended for your tractor to reduce
sway and make the side shift more
beneficial. See your tractor dealer for more
information about spacers.

NOTE! The RMH1000 is designed to be
used with agricultural tractors rated at a
minimum of 200 HP. For safety, we
