If you can tell us what tractor and equipment you're thinking of mating together, we can give more specific answers. Here are general guidelines. Some (non-pto driven) attachments are designed to be used on 0 or 1 just by changing pins and/or bushings. Examples: very light rear blades, carriers, cultivators, etc. PTO drives are radically different, hence not adaptable. Cat. 0 PTO is female multi-spline 2,000 rpm and standard Cat. 1 PTO is male 6-spline 540 rpm. Cat. 1 spacing between rear arms is approx. 26" and Cat. 0 spacing is approx. 20". Distance between lower pin centers and upper pin center is also significantly shorter on Cat. 0 or 0/1 attachments than on std. Cat. 1. I hope this is helpful.

The differences are in the distance between the pins on the implement, the actual size of that pin, and the weight of the implement. It is done that way so that someone won't attempt to hitch a category 0 garden tractor to an implement designed to be pulled by a category 2 or 3 farm tractor. It also prevents you from hitching the big tractor to the small implement and destroying the implement
