Hello!

Just installed Pats Quick Hitch on my BX2680 and when there is no load on the arms they are straight up and down. But, when I put weight on them lifting an implement, then angle in from the top.

Is this normal... or do I need to adjust something?

See pics. 1st pick is no load, 2nd pick is under load.

Thanks!

The bolts are tight. It's the whole 3pt arm that is angling under weight. Sorry if that wasn't clear in the OP.

I can see that happening when the implement's pin is not just ever so slightly as same diameter as the QH 'hook' it sits in. ANY 'slop' will allow things to move around,in the end that's bad.
