    Abstract: A tandem disc implement is provided with a hitch assembly for interconnecting the implement in articulated, trailing relation with respect to a tractor. The hitch assembly includes a draw bar which is pivotally connected to the tractor and is shiftably connected to the hitch frame of the hitch assembly. In one embodiment, the draw bar is pivotally connected to the hitch frame and is shifted between in-line and angulated relation with respect to the implement.
