There are Prongs that go into the fast hitch that are intended for cat 1 or 2 equipment. Then you get a toplink bracket, and bolt it to your tractor for the toplink. I have these setups for my 450 and 806, they work pretty well.

They can be had from A+I parts dealers, and also on EBAY. There are probably other sources, but that's how I've purchased the 2 sets I own. -Andy

You can buy 'prongs' that are offset for cat 2.My old 2 point had enough slop that the cat 1 'prongs' would work for both 1 & 2.Steve

All you need are the 3pt hitch parts off another 656, or maybe a 544, to turn your 656 into a 3pt tractor.

It's a simple matter of unbolting the fast hitch parts and bolting on the 3pt parts.

If you want to use adapter prongs, you just need to get the right prongs to fit the implement. They don't always build the 3pt implements to the proper dimensions.

The one on my 450 was home made, and goes over the rockshaft. I don't have a picture of mine right now. I found this while looking for a picture for you, this looks like it bolts up to the rockshaft arms. I'm having a hard time finding a picture of something just like mine, Maybe I'll try to post one for you over the weekend. -Andy
