Check Balance
One of the best, most practical farm equipment inventions was the three-point hitch. Back in the 1960s, nearly all farm equipment manufacturers agreed on and adopted the three-point hitch as the one standard system, so that plows, discs, blades and other farm implements fit nearly any tractor, no matter the brand. Most three-point equipment requires a tractor of 20 horsepower or greater. And check to make sure that your hitch can handle the weight of the three-point equipment.
If you have a smaller tractor with less horsepower, you may need to use sub-compact equipment, which is specially designed for today's sub-compact or small-framed compact tractors with up to 25 horsepower. This equipment looks like regular equipment, and works like it too, but it has a narrower hitch and lower center of gravity to accommodate the smaller tractor.
Use this guide to help you figure out which three-point equipment will best help you work your property.
Ground engaging
Ground-engaging equipment turns over, breaks, tills, or roughs up the ground to prepare it for seeding or planting.

Rotary tillers break and turn over the ground at the same time.

Rear blades
Rear blades grade rough ground and roll the material off to one side. This blade can be used going forward or in reverse.

Hitch category: 1
Hay mover
The round-bale hay mover features tapered forks to minimize bale damage.

What determines 3-point equipment
Your tractor's horsepower determines which 3-point equipment to look for. Here's some basic category classifications:
- If your tractor PTO (Power Take-Off) is 15-24 horsepower, you will need to look for category 0, or sub-compact equipment.
- 25-40 PTO horsepower takes category 1 equipment.
- 45-95 PTO horsepower takes category 2 equipment.
- 95 PTO horsepower or greater takes category 3 equipment.
Stop in to your local store and seek an expert team member if you have any questions. We can get your the right piece of 3-point equipment ordered for your tractor.
