REAR TOW HITCH
Description
Various rear tow hitch options are available. All
versions consist of a fabricated steel frame bolted to
the rear axle centre housing. A tow pin is provided,
adjustable for height.
The slider type frame is shown in Figures 172
and 173. Rotating pins in the tow pin assembly
engage in notches in the frame to secure the tow pin
at the required height. With this type of frame, a
second, fixed tow pin (piton) is available as an option.
The piton is installed at the bottom of the assembly.
Four types of tow pin assembly are available :--
•
Non-swivelling tow pin.
•
Heavy duty non-swivelling tow pin.
See Figure 173.
•
Swivelling tow pin -- manual operation.
See Figure 177.
•
Swivelling tow pin -- auto operation.
See Figure 179.
A swinging drawbar may also be provided as part of
the assembly. See ‘Sliding Type Swinging Drawbar’
on page 3--98 for details of drawbar operation.
NOTE: The tow hitch is designed primarily for use
with four wheel trailers which do not place a heavy
downward load on the tow pin. Observe the
maximum static downward loads quoted in the text.
