LaForge is now offering complete front hitch systems, including the award-winning FrontPower 1000 front PTO, for CASE-IH 7100, 7200, and 8900 Series MAGNUM tractors.
Two models of hitches are available: 1) ST 5 with 5,000 Kg (11,000 lbs) lift capacity is a standard front hitch intended for light applications, such as mowers, snow blowers, light cultivators, tanks, etc. 2) HDS with 5,500 Kg (12,100 lbs) lift capacity is a heavy-duty premium front hitch that includes a reinforcing pushbar structure to protect the tractor. This type of hitch is designed for when extra strength and durability is required such as dozer blades, tillage, commercial snow removal, etc.
LaForge FrontPower 1000 PTO system received an AE50 award for outstanding innovation, and is available in combination with either front hitch. It's designed with wet multi-disc clutch and electro-hydraulic modulation for smooth engagement. It's rated at an industry leading 180-hp continuous output. Older LAFORGE hitch systems can also be upgraded with this new PTO.
