For the record, the first factory installed 3 point hitch was the "industrial 3 point hitch" on the International 300 utility". This hitch was also available on the 350, 330, 340, and 460 utilities also. Very few were put on farm models but I have seen a few over the years that were painted yellow and were former highway mower tractors. The "3 point Fast Hitch" option was also available on the 240, 340, and 460 utility tractors. It was really a 2 point Fast Hitch with different rear receptacles (for 3 point equipment) and a horseshoe frame over the top connecting the lower receptacles. The third link attached to the horseshoe frame. None of these 3 point hitches had true hydraulic draft control. The British B 275 also had a mechanical draft control 3 point hitch in the late 1950's. The first hydraulic draft control 3 point hitches were found on the 404, 504, 606, and B414 tractors introduced in 1962.
