Ballast Machine

Avoid injury! Ballasted machine becomes unstable when attachment is raised. Always drive slowly over uneven ground and when turning with raised attachment.

Avoid damage! Do not overload tires. Do not exceed maximum inflation pressure or maximum load capacity of tire.

Avoid damage! Remove ballast from the machine when no longer needed.

  • Add weight to the machine front end if needed for stability. Heavy pulling and heavy rear mounted implements tend to lift front wheels. To maintain steering control and prevent tip over, ensure that enough ballast has been added. Remove weight when it is no longer needed.
  • See tire maximum inflation pressure and maximum load capacities in the Specifications section.
  • Verify maximum tire inflation pressure and maximum load information if embossed into the tire side wall.
