- Mahindra eMax 20S — 14.2 PTO HP · 680 lbs lift. The Mahindra eMax 20S has a Category 1 Narrow hitch. Pin diameters are standard Category 1, so this implement will pin up, but the lower links sit closer together than standard Category 1 spacing. Measure your lower-link spread against this implement's pin spacing before buying - many Category 1 implements fit once the links are adjusted, and some do not.
- John Deere 1023E — 14.9 PTO HP · 758 lbs lift. This tractor uses a Limited Category I hitch. Pin diameters and lower-link spacing meet the standard Category I specification, so Category I implements mount normally - what is limited is lift height, ground clearance and lift-frame capacity. Check the implement's weight against this tractor's 3-point lift figure, and expect less clearance under the implement when raised.
- TYM T224 — 15.1 PTO HP · 679 lbs lift. The TYM T224 has a Category 1 Narrow hitch. Pin diameters are standard Category 1, so this implement will pin up, but the lower links sit closer together than standard Category 1 spacing. Measure your lower-link spread against this implement's pin spacing before buying - many Category 1 implements fit once the links are adjusted, and some do not.
- Yanmar SA223 — 15.6 PTO HP · 660 lbs lift. This tractor uses a Limited Category I hitch.
