Use Implement Codes

CAUTION: DO NOT attempt to transport an implement without adequate front ballast. Lack of steering control may result. 2-WD

John Deere engineers have developed a code to determine how much front ballast is needed for stability and steering control.

1. Find implement code in implement operator’s manual

2. Use the following chart to determine how many QUIK-TATCHä front weights are required on your tractor model.

   To use chart, find the implement code range in the left column into which your implement code fits. Then move to the right until you are beneath the column which identifies your tractor configuration. The number you find at this point in the chart is the number of QUIK-TATCHä weights needed.

   With maximum front ballast, do not attempt to transport an implement whose code exceeds:

   • 115 for 2-WD Tractor
   • 137 for MFWD Tractor
