iMatch Quick-Hitch (LVB25255)

iMatch Quick-Hitch with rotary cutter hookup (LVB25255)

iMatch Quick-Hitch (LVB25976)

iMatch Quick-Hitch with rotary cutter hookup (LVB25976)

One of the greatest customer concerns involves difficulty in attaching tractor implements. John Deere has addressed this issue with the iMatch Quick-Hitch.

The iMatch Quick-Hitch provides easy hookup and a guaranteed fit for all Category 1 implements that are designed to meet the ASAE Category 1 Standard S278.6 for quick-attach hitches.

• All implements require a set of bushings in order for the attachment to fit and work properly with the iMatch Quick-Hitch. One set of bushings comes with the iMatch Quick-Hitch.

NOTE: In the picture above, you see the bushing set. These bushings allow the hooks on the iMatch and the pins on the implement to fit together properly. All other implements (box blades, tillers, rear blades, etc.) will require a set of bushings to enlarge the pin to fit with the iMatch hooks. Bushings of different lengths can be found in the parts system or through a bushing supplier (see dimensions below).

• Upper bushing
  • Inside diameter: 0.76-0.77 in.
  • Outside diameter: 1.24-1.25 in.

• Lower bushings
  • Inside diameter: 0.88 to 0.89 in.
  • Outside diameter: 1.43 to 1.44 in.

iMatch quick-coupler bushing kit

This bushing kit is for use with Category 1 implements (ballast box) to make them function correctly with the iMatch Quick-Hitch.

Tire chains
