ABSTRACT:
An implement mounts a plurality of working members through couplings, each coupling having a first member that can turn relative to a second member, upon overload. A shear pin normally prevents relative turning between the two members until overload and the pin is mounted on a holder that is releaseably connected to the coupling. The pin is in severable portions, one portion being sheared upon each overload and the remainder of the pin being automatically advanced to re-establish operative connection between the members when the latter are again in operative alignment.
