Pick-up hitch

[Guy Dreich]

Anyone had problems with extending hydraulic hook on pick-up hitch?Mine seems jammed on a Puma 145.Last used it pre-harvest last year.Tried rocking back and forward on hydraulic float position with heavy trailer to no avail.Any other ideas?

I have to jiggle the hydraulic extender back and forward at times. I have found the big bolt in the hitch to limit the travel slack in the past. Probably needs seeing to again, along with the lift rods. They're always to cock after drilling season.

This is on a T4b NH, the type where the locking pin goes through the hook itself.

Are the sprung loaded tabs, which permit the hitch to come out seized in through lack of use?
with the hitch dropped down, can you see the two tabs that slot In when raised

Is it on its own spool feed of do you have to turn two taps over on the block to extend the hook

Tabs are free and working.

I’ve had a pin put back wrong by a student jam the hitch. Get under it as someone very carefully pressurising it to see what stops it moving. Try with hook up and down to see fault
