Phew, got the barn tidied up again just in time.
Also found out the exact lifting capacity of our Iseki's three point hitch - 500 kg. With a bit of OSB on top of the cement bags and the weight of the pallet forks (and pallet) I had to use brake steering as the front wheels were lifting and the rear hydraulics hitting relief pressure. Well designed balance! :)
My scrapmetal #PalletFork handled it fine and I got everything inside before the next rain front hit.

Auto-horizon explained in one picture.
This adds an extra hydraulic cylinder on one side of the three point hitch that is electronically controlled to regulate the attachment to be always level with the horizon, no matter how tilted the tractor is.
Kubota calls theirs "Monroematic". Our Iseki has it too, not sure what it's called there, the computer translates it with "horizontal rotary".
Pretty cool stuff for the 1970s. Revolutionary in working flooded rice fields, which is why most grey import Japanese tractors have it.

This kind of detail makes me very happy. Someone gave a fuck when they designed this.
The bolt is recessed so it doesn't poke into the rubber mat that goes on top, but because water can go there, they put a drain hole next to it, so it doesn't stay trapped in the recess forever and rusts the bolt.
1984 Japanese engineering 👍
