Electronic 3-Point Hitch

All MT500B Series tractors feature an electronic lift control (ELC) 3-point hitch as standard equipment.

Controls for height limit, draft sensing, rate of drop, and transport lock are conveniently located on the right console, while depth control and a raise/lower rocker switch are located on the right-hand armrest.

  Electronic 3-Point Hitch   

When operating in “position control” mode, the ELC system automatically maintains any pre-selected depth. The position control mode is ideal for operations requiring a continuous height, such as operating a rear mounted blade. In “draft sensing” mode, the hitch control system furnishes quick response to changing conditions to maintain traction and engine torque.

Finally, the system includes a transport lock feature that allows the operator to lock mounted implements in the raised position and use the hydraulic rams to absorb the shocks from rough roads or surfaces.

Optional Front 3-Point Hitch

Put additional equipment up front with an optional front 3-point hitch and hydraulic remotes. Equipped with a standard 3-point linkage to handle cultivators, plows, fertilizer tanks, etc., the front linkage has a lift capacity of up to 7,700 lbs.
