Selection of Weights

CAUTION: When choosing the front and rear weights, make sure that the permissible axle weights as well as the permissible total weight including the implement is not exceeded.

Comply with local regulations regarding installation and maximum permissible number of weights. In order to maintain steerability, at least 20% of unladen mass must be on the front axle. Unladen mass is the mass of the tractor without special equipment, attachments, trailer or ballast, but with hydraulic oil and lubricants, a full fuel tank and an operator weighing 75 kg.

CAUTION: Use suitable lifting tackle/hoists when handling weights.

IMPORTANT: If the tractor is driven continuously with high ballast weight, it is necessary to check the toe-in before prestarting.

Safety and performance of your tractor depend on correct ballasting of front axle (front weights) and rear axle (wheel weights, filling tires with liquid ballast, pick-up weight).
