Use Implement Codes

CAUTION: DO NOT attempt to transport an implement without adequate front ballast, result must be lack of steering control.

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 manyiMatch™ 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 iMatch™ weights needed.

   Example: An implement with a code 37 to be used on an MFWD tractor with a quick-coupler, but minimum number of 19 kg (42 lb) weights, requires 3 front weights.

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

• 71 for MFWD Tractor
