Land pride QH05 review

[Crash277]

Started setting things up for the new QH. Figured I’d post what fits right away and what needs to be modified.

started with my 3 pt hitch... hitch. It won’t work, due to the design of the reinforcements at the top it will not fit on the top hook. I can toss the float bars on it so it will work. But that would force me to change the angle on the top link and once I get into moving and adding pieces. It’s likely faster to just toss this on without the QH.

Old finishing mower, I flipped the lower pins and they line up perfectly. However the top float bars someone welded in a brace so I’m going to have to make them a bit wider, to fit outside the top link pin so I can hook it up.

items I got new from Kubota.

As expected the LP tiller with the QH sticker fit perfectly, the box blade fit perfectly, I went to
Install the bushing for the top link pin and it’s too long for the snow blower. so I will have to grind about 1/4” off the bushing. The bushings were all from the dealer. As I go along I will add more.

Quick update. I’m a moron. I didn’t realize you used a double link when hooking up a finishing mower. Tossed the black links that came with the QH and the mower link works on the hook.

Ideas to make implements QH compatible

Get the most benefit from your quick hitch. Buying new get QH compatible. Here is a photo of an implement whose manufacturer has their act together. Note how it's designed for cat 1 & 2. Also the lift arm spacing can be adjusted. Some "QH compatible" only need minor modification. This TSC...

I will get a picture later to post. Not impressed with the powder coating. It’s flanking off and there are spots that are chipped where there are no contact points. You think Kubota/landpride would provide a bit better finish for the price of their stuff.

Modified the hitch. So it now fits on the QH05. Plasma cut a slot for the top hook. The height from the lower pins to the top pins was too short. Added 2 washers as spacers and now it fits perfectly.
