What is a Tilting Hitch for Excavators?
A tilting hitch lets the attachment at the end of your excavator’s arm tilt up to 35 degrees, depending on the model. This makes it easier to dig trenches, level surfaces, and work at tricky angles, without moving the whole machine.
When you combine a quick hitch with tilt movement, you save time, work more accurately, and get more done across a wide range of jobs.
