P10192-UN-04APR08

P10151-UN-26MAR01

Four Maximum Weights Installed

A - First Weight

B - Spacer (3 Used)

C - First Weight Retaining Bolt, Washer and Nut (3 Sets Used)

D - Additional Weight Retaining Bolt, Washer and Nut

E - Retainer Jaws

CAUTION: Rear weights weigh 55 kg (121 lb) each. Handle with care! Use appropriate equipment or have the job done by your John Deere dealer.

CAUTION: When installing or removing QUICK-TATCH weights, always position wheels so that weight retainer jaws are at the top. This prevents weights from falling when retaining bolt is removed.

NOTE: Spacers are required when weights won't fit into rim's dish. If weights do fit, spacers are optional.

1. Attach FIRST weight (A) to wheel disk, using three spacers (B) if necessary, with bolts, washers and nuts (C). Note that bolts go through first weight and into the rim so that washers and nuts tighten onto rim, not onto weights. This makes it easy to check regularly for tightness.

2. To install ADDITIONAL weights, position wheel so that one of retainer jaws (E) is at top. Hang next weight in retainer jaw and secure with bolt, washer and nut (D) as shown. Proceed in similar fashion with other additional weights, up to maximum allowable.

3. Tighten all bolt retaining nuts to specification. Tighten again after a few hours of service. Check tightness regularly.
