A coupling mechanism couples a towed implement to a prime mover. The coupling mechanism includes a housing fixed to the prime mover, a coupler frame fixed to the implement, and a coupler plate movably mounted to the coupler frame. A pivot pin projects from the housing. A lever member pivots on the pivot pin. The lever member has a first arm with a latch pin and a second arm with a locking recess. A lock pin projects from the coupler plate, and a latch member is fixed to the coupler frame. The latch member has a latch finger which forms a slot. The latch member engages the latch pin, pivots the lever member and moving the latch pin into the slot as the coupler frame moves towards the housing. The locking recess receives the lock pin as the lever member is pivoted by the latch member.
