Hydraulic-Operated Top Link Built For Heavy-Duty Use
 ✖  |
"It's built heavy and is fitted with a depth indicator gauge that makes it easy to set the depth of an implement," says Jerry Tufte, Tough-T Mfg., Glenfield, N. Dak., about his company's new hydraulic-operated top link. It replaces the top link on a 3-pt. hitch, making it easy to adjust the top link from the cab.
The hydraulic top link is designed for Cat. II and III 3-pt. hitches and is equipped with a 3 by 8-in. cylinder with 32-in. stroke and a 1 3/4-in. dia. bore. It has 1 1/4-in. dia. pin holes.
A decal with ruler marks on top of the cylinder, and a long metal bar attached to one end of the cylinder, make it easy to determine implement depth.
"It's designed for heavy duty use. Most commercial hydraulic-operated top links come with 1-in. dia. pin holes and a 1 1/2-in. dia. bore," says Tufte.""The depth indicator gauge makes it easy to keep machines or implements working at the proper level. Works great when using implements such as forklifts and snowblowers."
Sells for $349.
Tufte also offers a heavy duty Category III model for big 4-WD tractors equipped with 3-pt. hitches. It's equipped with a 2-in. dia. bore. "It works great with 3-pt. mounted hydraulic rock diggers or anything else that puts a lot of stress on the top link."
Sells for $399.
