ABSTRACT:
A hitch apparatus for use with a pair of tractor lift arms for selectively detachably attaching implements to the tractor. The hitch apparatus includes a pair of hook members that are detachably attached to the lift arms of the tractor. A spreader bar extends between the hook members and functions to both attach the hook members to the lift arms and to retain the hook members apart from one another at a preselected distance. A safety arm is pivotally connected to the hook members and is biased via a spring in a first position over the hook mouth for preventing an implement shaft from exiting the hook, or in a second position whereat the implement mounting shaft can easily be inserted or withdrawn from the hook mouth.
