Automatic

The Automatic section groups technical products, parts and accessories within the context of tractors, trailers and utility vehicles.

The full category path is All products in the shop/Tractor & Vehicle/Vehicle parts/Trailer couplings/Trailer hitch/Automatic. It shows where the category sits within the range and helps users select the correct product section.

Application and purpose

Parts in this group support servicing, repair, installation or equipment upgrades for the intended application. A single trade name may cover several designs, so compatibility must be confirmed from technical data rather than from an image alone.

Which subcategories does this section include?

Key subcategories include (store labels):

• Height adjustable
• With flange connection
• Detachable

How to select the correct product

Start by identifying the machine, equipment or assembly. Then compare the features that most often determine compatibility:

• machine or equipment make, model and version
• catalogue number, OE number or manufacturer reference
• dimensions and mounting method
• material, design and operating conditions

Technical product data shows that several parameters may matter at the same time, depending on the part's function: dimensions, material, temperature range, pressure, flow, voltage, load rating or connection type. An OE or manufacturer reference is extremely useful, but it should still be checked against dimensions and equipment version.

If several versions exist for one model, record the production year, serial number, engine or gearbox code and the marking on the old part. A photograph of the mounting position may help, but it does not replace measurement and specification comparison.

Installation, operation and safety

Before installation, clean the mating surfaces, compare the new part with the removed item and use suitable tools and tightening torques. After repair, check movement, fixings and operation under safe conditions.
