Front Weight Frame

RXA0115918-UN-10MAY11

Front Weight Support With Weights

A - Front Weights

B - Cap Screw

IMPORTANT: The front frame weight support is not intended to be used for pushing other tractors or implements and should not be used for securing chains or cables as tow points.

IMPORTANT: A field installed tow cable kit is available through John Deere Parts. If tow cable kit is installed on a tractor without front weight support, then support should also be ordered through service parts to attach cable onto front of tractor frame.

The front weights (A) are secured on the support by a center pin, retainers and long cap screws (B).

The front weight support extends out in front of the tractor and has the following effect on front axle weight and rear axle weight because of weight transfer effect:
