Description

HLA Attachments 3PHA-BO500 Three Point Hitch Adapter provides a practical connection between a loader or skid steer and Category 2 three-point-hitch equipment. Built with the BO500 universal skid-steer quick-attach mounting configuration, this loader-mounted adapter makes it possible to handle compatible three-point equipment without a conventional tractor three-point hitch. Sliding lower arms simplify alignment during hookup, while the included Reese-style hitch receiver adds another useful connection option.

Connect Three-Point Equipment to a Loader or Skid Steer

The 3PHA-BO500 attaches to a loader or skid steer fitted with a universal skid-steer quick-attach carrier. On the implement side, it provides a Category 2 three-point-hitch connection. This configuration allows compatible three-point equipment to be picked up, positioned, moved, or handled using the loader carrier.

This adapter is well suited to operations that need greater flexibility from an existing loader or skid steer. It creates a straightforward interface between the universal quick-attach carrier and Category 2 equipment, reducing the need for a separate mounting solution.

Sliding Lower Arms for Easier Hookup

Connecting three-point equipment can require careful alignment between the adapter and the implement’s hitch points. The two lower arms on the HLA 3PHA slide laterally, allowing their position to be adjusted for easier hookup. This adjustment helps the operator line up the lower connections before securing the equipment.

Included Reese-Style Hitch Receiver

In addition to its Category 2 three-point interface, the adapter includes a Reese-style hitch receiver. The integrated receiver expands the adapter’s usefulness by providing an auxiliary receiver connection alongside the three-point-hitch arrangement.
