question on my fast hitch on 230

Hello guys,

I was wondering about my hitch. I have never plowed a field in my life(I have run a front tine walk behind rototiller) (my farming experience in a nutshell :)

anyway about my 230 hitch... someone converted it to 3 point some time ago, and made inserts with the eyeballs on the end to take the cat 1 pins. The hitch itself is in the shape of a wishbone and is fastened under the tractor rear end.

Where it fastens on wants to swivel back and forth a few inches. Now also back at the connection there is an arm that sticks out and up off the wishbone that nothing is hooked to. IT looks to me that the hitch is upside down, cause the arm is sticking out the passenger side, and on the drivers side there is a rod not hooked to anything that goes to some kind of adjustment that looks like a handle that can go up and down that the driver can reach from the seat.

Can somebody enlighten me on how this is supposed to work, and why there is back and forth play in the hitch?
