I installed a three point hitch on the 149 today. First I had to remove the ball hitch mount that a PO put on this tractor. It is a pretty well made unit.



It was made to bolt up to existing holes in the frame and was easily removable.


I'll keep it handy in case I ever need to move around a small trailer or maybe a log splitter some day.
I set up my Craftsman rear blade and moved around some dirt and leaves with it. the Hydro lift is awesome! The blade is so much more effective with the control of the hydro lift than it ever could have been on my 125 with manual lift and spring assist. I didn't take any pictures with three point and blade because I was running out of daylight. Here's a picture of the blade on my 125.
