Why can you adjust the hitch point in 2 positions?

There are 2 coupling positions for the bumper, standard in the front position. If the front linkage is compact and fully raised, the bumper may touch the linkage arm. The ball position must then be moved to the position 2, more at the back Loosen the M27 bolt (key 41), move the nut inside the rail and tighten again.
