Semi Hitch Transports Farm Equipment
 ✖  |
Since it’s not always practical for farmers to move today’s large planting equipment, fertilizer applicators, tillage machinery, and grain carts with a farm tractor, Bestway Ag introduced the Retriever Transport Hitch. This hitching system converts tandem axle semi-trailers into 2 and 3-pt. implement towing vehicles.
The standard hitch features a sturdy lifting point for easy mounting using a forklift or tractor loader. Operators simply lift the unit and drive it onto the truck from the rear. Installation and removal are quick and easy, usually in 5 min. The portable hitch features a hydraulic lift mast, CAT 2 and 3 hitch systems, and a removable CAT 2 or 4 drawbar for towing larger implements. The hitch can be swapped from a CAT 3 to a CAT 2 in seconds.
“The Retriever has a removable 2-pt. hitch system to move hay equipment, corn planters, mower conditioners and other large machinery,” says Bestway Marketing Director Dave Benson. It features a drop pin-style hammer strap that makes connections to any drawbar-type equipment simple. The drawbar’s 12,000-lb. towing capacity allows the unit to tow the largest implements.
A 12-volt hydraulic power pack, housed in a weatherproof enclosure, raises and lowers the mast for easy hookup at various heights. The truck’s trailer light plug-in supplies power to a 12-volt battery and charging system.
“There’s also a plug-in for lights and flashers when towing down the road,” Benson says. “Hydraulic valves controlled by remote push button controls make folding and unfolding machinery simple after arriving at the destination.”
