Wrong how? It looks like the two lower links are converging at the front, so the horizontal hitch point is fine. And if they aren't, what would it do? The plow would probably wander side to side a bit. I bet you could lock the lower links in and be OK as long as they are pointing straight ahead. You can't lock the lower links in place trying to force the plow over. That would be bad news.
As for the vertical hitch point: that is nothing some fabrication can't take care of. In the one picture of the plow resting on the ground it looks like both top and bottom links are fairly horizontal which would make them run uphill to the tractor when the plow is in the ground. If that makes the vertical hitch point too high, some simple plates welded on the headstock to raise the hole where the top link attaches to the plow would fix that.
