Agriweld Quickshifter

Anyone using them and can you recommend them?

Ours get used 6 days a week for past 4 years. No problems wonder how we managed with out it.

I made my own with what I considered some improvements. Best money you'll ever spend

It's on my " to make list" have used other people's ones and they are brilliant

I copied DaveW's one - and have endorsed it before too.

Brilliant tool - simple to use and just makes life easier. I shift anything from trailers to a very heavy 6m slitter.

Making it yourself, or locally, might save a pound or two?

Definitely one of those things that you wonder how you managed without one once you got one, One of those things you'll you'll never regret buying from the moment it arrives

Looks a nice job, thankyou

Don't think agriwelds have a swivel hook. I use that and the drawbar 80% of the time.
Drawbar is brilliant for pushing stuff up ramps and not having to put the weight of the loader on the ramps

I have had a Taylor attachments hooklifter for 3 years now , not sure how we used to manage without it , saves so much time messing about with straps and makes moving and loading equipment so much safer .

I have one of @Dave W's creations. Works perfectly.
However I did have a warranty issue as the sticker fell off!

Back in the seventies, when I had a dairy herd, there was a farmer who wrote regularly for the Dairy Farmer magazine. He was using accord triangle quick hitches on all his implements. He had also put one on his front end loader and all his buckets and forks etc. This was at a time when no loaders had quick hitching arrangements.

Copying his idea, I did the same thing on 2 successive front end loaders. It was also very hand for moving any machine about. When I bought my JCB Loadall in 1984, I made up a conversion bracket to go on the JCB, that would take an Accord male attachment. With the ability of the JCB to extend it's boom, it was possible to pick up any cultivator and tip it down to the vertical position so you could change points whilst standing up. Much easier than crawling underneath.

You can't do that with a quickshift type device.

We decided it was clearly operator error

 

[blue power]

We’ve got a Taylor’s one and don’t know how we managed before great for servicing Machinary and putting stuff away

 

[Goweresque]

How much do these devices cost then?

You can with ours, we have a screw type top link rather than an open hook and also have adjustable hook ends for cat 3&4

Taylor’s do them with hook ends as well as pads, maybe others do to.
I looked at a Taylor one at lamma and iirc, the all singing all dancing one that does just about everything you’d wish was about £1600
