Description
Overview:
This Manual Quick Hitch is a non-genuine replacement designed for the Volvo EC15D mini excavator and compatible with the EC15. Built from heavy-duty steel with a protective painted finish, it allows fast, secure changing of two-pin attachments such as buckets, rippers, and compactors. The manual locking design keeps moving parts simple and easy to maintain on site. By reducing changeover time, it helps keep smaller machines productive across varied jobs where frequent swaps are needed. Identified under MPN 996 446, it is a practical choice for operators who want reliable performance without the genuine-part price. Suitable for mini excavators in the 1-2 tonne class, it provides a solid interface between the dipper arm and a wide range of standard attachments.
Key Features:
- Non-genuine replacement for Volvo EC15D, also fits EC15
- Robust steel construction for long service life in harsh conditions
- Painted finish for corrosion resistance and easier cleaning
- Manual pin-and-latch mechanism for straightforward, tool-friendly operation

- Low-maintenance design with few wear points, ideal for daily use
- MPN reference: 996 446 for easy identification
- Cost-effective alternative to OEM, without compromising essential function
Typical Applications:
Useful on construction, utilities, groundworks, and landscaping projects where attachments need changing frequently. Ideal for swapping between trenching and grading buckets, augers, rippers, compactors, and other two-pin tools. Suits tight sites and quick task changes on housing, driveways, service trenches, fence lines, and general maintenance work.
Also known as:
Sometimes referred to as a manual coupler, mechanical quick hitch, quick attach coupler, bucket hitch, pin grabber coupler, attachment changer, manual pin-lock coupler, or excavator hitch adapter.
