Operate 1690 and 1890 in Hilly Conditions and Addition of Ballast
 CAUTION:
Avoid loss of control and stability when operating on steep slopes.
Operating, steering, and braking control of the tractor can be reduced or lost when operating on steep slopes. Steep slopes can cause the tool to tip forward
IMPORTANT:
To maintain the necessary ground contact and stability, ballast the seeding tool as follows:
Tow-Behind operation
Air cart capacity must not exceed 195 bushels. When using a tow-behind cart, rear of seeding tool must be ballasted with at least 14 tractor suitcase weights of 100 lbs. each. Do not operate on slopes greater than 27% grade (15 degrees) under any conditions.
Tow-Between operation
Tow-between cart does not operate safely on slopes greater than 32% grade (18 degrees) without ballast. Install at least 14 tractor suitcase weights of 100 lbs. each on rear of seeding tool. Do not operate on slopes greater than 40% grade (22 degrees) under any conditions.
