Maintenance
Proper servicing and adjustments are key to the long life
of any implement. With careful inspection and routine
maintenance, you can avoid costly downtime and repair.
After using your QH05, QH15, or QH20 Quick Hitch for
several hours, check all bolts to be sure they are tight.
Replace any worn, damaged, or illegible safety labels by
obtaining new labels from your Land Pride dealer.

the hitch when parking it for long periods and when
parking it at the end of a working season. This will help
ensure the hitch is ready for use the next time you hook-
up to it.

applied to unpainted area to minimize oxidation.
