Daily Inspections (of attachments):
Check the fit of the KAT Master Hitch into all corresponding attachments; inspect the top bar
to top hook fit and lock pin to lock pin bore.

must be replaced prior to any and all operation of the KAT Master Hitch. Failure to repair or
replace damaged or worn components may result in equipment malfunction, serious injury or
death.
