Abstract: An implement coupling apparatus configured to facilitate coupling and de-coupling of an implement such as but not limited to a bucket from the operator's cab of the machinery. The invention includes a first side plate member and a second side plate member each having a first end a second end. Lug apertures and lugs are present on each side member being configured to engage hub notches of an implement. A wedge bar member is operably disposed between the first side plate member and second side plate member and is movable between a first and second position. The wedge bar member includes opposing ends that protrude beyond the first side plate member and second side plate member. A spring assembly having two compression springs is operably coupled to the wedge bar member. A control cylinder is operably coupled to the wedge bar member to provide movement thereof.
