Correction Factors for Other Tire Sizes

To calculate ground speeds for tractors equipped with rear tires other than 16.9-30 R1 tires, multiply speeds shown in GROUND SPEED ESTIMATES by the correction factor for the appropriate tire size found in the table.

Be sure to use correct ground speed estimate for your transmission type (SyncShuttle Plus ™ , SyncReverser ™ , PowrReverser ™ or PowrReverser Plus ™ Transmission). Use creeper transmission ground speed estimates, if so equipped.

Example: Forward B-2 (SyncShuttle Plus ™ Transmission) at 2400 engine rpm with 16.9-24 R1 tires.

8.51 km/h (5.29 mph) x 0.90 = 7.66 km/h (4.76 mph)
