Implement Codes

IMPORTANT: Use a scale to check static weight, especially with heavy implements. Static weight remaining on front wheels with implement lifted should always be at least 50 percent of the weight with implement resting on ground.

Determine following:

  • MFWD, or Triple Link Suspension
  • Front tires with or without liquid

Find implement code in John Deere™ implement operator's manual.

To find implement code for non-John Deere™ implements use the following procedure:

  1. Estimate implement center of gravity (find or estimate fore-and-aft balance point)

  2. Measure distance from implement hitch point to center of gravity. Record distance (inches). Add 37 to this figure.

  3. Determine implement weight (fully loaded). Record weight.

  4. Multiply Step 2 by Step 3. Divide by 1000.

  5. Resulting number is implement code.

    Use prior information and refer to appropriate chart to determine how many Quik-Tatch™ weights are required.

    CAUTION: Do not attempt to transport an implement without adequate front ballast. Loss of steering control may result.

    NOTE: If no quick coupler is used, add 15 to implement code.
