6.8 Universal towing coupler
6.8.1 General information about TC design
The towing device for work with two-axle trailers consists of the towing yoke (5) (Fig.
6.8.1) with the pivot (6). The yoke body is connected to the plates (4) that enter the groove in the
side guides (3, 7) and are fixed with two fingers (12). The fingers are fixed with the cotter (2) and
locked with the ring (1). Position of the towing yoke together with the body can be changed in
height by its permutation in the holes in the side guides (3, 7).
The towing yoke (10) with the pivot (11) is designed to work with semi-trailers. For those
purposes, the drawbar pin “python” (13) can also be used.
The draw bar (8) with the pivot (9) is designed for connection of trailed and semi-trailed
agricultural machines to the tractor.

designed for connection of trailed and semi-mounted machines to the tractor.
Mounted on the RHL suspension axle (rear joints of the lower rods (1)) and is connected to
machines that have a yoke instead of an eye and improves MTU maneuverability.
