Select Ballast Carefully

Match amount of ballast needed for each job. What is right for one job may be wrong for another job. Ballast for traction and stability.

    Factors determining amount of ballast:

  • Soil surface-loose or firm.
  • Type of implement-integral/semi-integral or towed.
  • Travel speed-slow or fast.
  • Tractor power output-partial or full load.
  • Tires-single, oversize, or dual.
