I am trying to find a quick hitch that I can use on a Woods BB720 6 ft Rotary cutter and also will fit a Buhler series 80 back blade. I tried the Buhler quick hitch, but it wouldn't fit the Woods mower. thanks, Ron ....

It all has to do with the top hook spacing and mounting.
The one I have now doesn't extend the hook far enough toward the rear for my Woods blades. They bind on the shoulders of the hook's mounting towers (for lack of a more proper descriptive term).
The Land Pride has the hook "sticking out" farther than any other unit I've seen. This will eliminate the binding while removing the hook will allow attaching my rotary cutter.
To remedy this in the mean time, I welded the hook in place after extending it out (toward the rear) about an inch farther than the pins would allow. It now works great for the blades, cultivator and implements I made but the bush hog won’t fit with the hook in place. My only option is to modify the hogs 3pt or buy another quick hitch.
Otherwise, the Speeco has worked fine.

I ditched the top hook. It came with a U-shaped bracket with a flange on it. It has two hole positions, one I use for everything except the tiller, and box scraper, the other works for those two. It takes me about 5 minutes to hook up any of my attachments that use the PTO, a minute for the rest. ....

If you are asking about the three point hitch that comes on the tractor, I would think they make their own. But they don't make a Quick hitch for the 3-point. I Think each dealer selects what line he will carry. Sometime 2 or 3 lines af attachments. My dealer handles Buhler .Ron ....
