ABSTRACT:
An implement hitch assembly is described that can be removably attached to an implement and to a towing vehicle. The hitch assembly includes apparatus by which the implement frame is allowed to pivot freely about a selected axis relative to the towing tongue frame when the implement is in a lowered, operative position. Pivotal motion is transferred to a different pivot axis on the hitch assembly when the implement is elevated. The former pivot axis is locked in the raised position of the implement and selected resistance to pivotal motion about the other axis is provided to enable safe transport of the implement.
