Zusammenfassung:	A coupler assembly (10) for coupling an implement to a vehicle comprises a pickup hitch (12) with an hollow inner housing (20) which is pivotal about a horizontal axis and a drawbar (22) which is slidably received in the hollow inner housing (20). An implement coupler (16) has a coupler frame adapted to be attached to the implement. The coupler frame has a coupler member (51) for releasably coupling to the drawbar (22). A side member (56) is attached to the coupler frame. An alignment recess (26, 28) is formed on the drawbar (22). The alignment recess (26, 28) is defined by a plurality of surfaces formed on the drawbar (22). Said surfaces comprise a rearwardly facing front wall (30), a top wall (32), and a side wall (38). The alignment recess (26, 28) receives a portion of the side member (58) when the coupler frame is pulled into a coupled position by the drawbar (22).
