Three-point hitches are composed of three movable arms. The two lower arms—the hitch lifting arms—are controlled by the hydraulic system, and provide lifting, lowering, and even tilting to the arms. The upper center arm—called the top link—is movable, but is usually not powered by the tractor's hydraulic system.
The M936 was a wrecker used to recover disabled or stuck trucks and lift large components. A rotating, telescoping, and elevating hydraulic boom could lift a maximum of 20,000 pounds (9,100 kg). Although the truck was not meant to carry a load, the boom could support 7,000 pounds (3,200 kg) when towing.
As a wrecker the boom could lift up to 20,000 lb (9,100 kg), and had a longer reach than the M816. As a tractor the fifth wheel load rating was 15,000 lb (6,800 kg). Because of the high empty weight as a semi tractor, oversize 12.00x20 tires were used, this was the only model to have this size. [3] [19]
