Built for durability and precision, the adapter accommodates common differences in pin spacing and tube diameters, allowing you to use Level 1 quick-connect attachments on non-ASABE compatible tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this adapter make incompatible quick-hitch parts work together?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sleeve acts as an intermediary spacer and diameter reducer so the implement’s pin and bracket align correctly with the tractor’s quick-hitch.
