ABSTRACT:
A bail type ball and socket coupler has an extension bail handle welded to the bail and an extension catch handle welded to the catch. The ends of the handle are parallel. Therefore, the hitch may be operated from a remote position by the extension handles and also a positive lock may be used over the parallel ends of the handle so that the hitch is positively locked. Furthermore, the slide which positively locks the extension handle is readily visible from many positions so that the operator may know if the hitch is positively locked.
