A Z front hitch assembly for a working vehicle, the front hitch assembly comprising: a carrier for attachment to a working vehicle, the carrier being pivotable about a first axis; a pair of lift arms (14, 16), each of the lift arms having a first end and a second end, the lift arms pivotably attached to the carrier about a second axis, the second axis being proximate the first ends of the lift arms (14, 16); a locking means; an actuator (22a, 22b) pivotably connected to the carrier and the lift arms (14, 16) at the second axis; wherein the hitch assembly has a working configuration and a folded configuration; and wherein in the working configuration, the locking means secures the lift arms (14, 16) relative to the carrier such that relative movement about the second axis is prevented and the actuator (22a, 22b) is operable to raise and lower the lift arms (14, 16); and wherein in the folded configuration, the lift arms (14, 16) are pivotable relative to the carrier about the second axis; characterised by a link member having a first end and a second end, the first end of the link member being pivotably attached to the pair of lift arms (14, 16) about a third axis, the third axis being positioned closer to the second end of the lift arms (14, 16) than the second axis, the second end of the link for attachment to a working vehicle; wherein in the folded configuration the second end of the link member is secured to a vehicle mount, such that extension of the actuator (22a, 22b) folds the lift arms (14, 16) relative to the carrier about the second axis, thereby moving the hitch assembly from the working configuration to the folded configuration. a carrier for attachment to a working vehicle, the carrier being pivotable about a first axis; a pair of lift arms (14, 16), each of the lift arms having a first end and a second end, the lift arms pivotably attached to the carrier about a second axis, the second axis being proximate the first ends of the lift arms (14, 16); a locking means; an actuator (22a, 22b) pivotably connected to the carrier and the lift arms (14, 16) at the second axis; wherein the hitch assembly has a working configuration and a folded configuration; and wherein in the working configuration, the locking means secures the lift arms (14, 16) relative to the carrier such that relative movement about the second axis is prevented and the actuator (22a, 22b) is operable to raise and lower the lift arms (14, 16); and wherein in the folded configuration, the lift arms (14, 16) are pivotable relative to the carrier about the second axis; characterised by a link member having a first end and a second end, the first end of the link member being pivotably attached to the pair of lift arms (14, 16) about a third axis, the third axis being positioned closer to the second end of the lift arms (14, 16) than the second axis, the second end of the link for attachment to a working vehicle; wherein in the folded configuration the second end of the link member is secured to a vehicle mount, such that extension of the actuator (22a, 22b) folds the lift arms (14, 16) relative to the carrier about the second axis, thereby moving the hitch assembly from the working configuration to the folded configuration.
