Determining Maximum Front Ballast

Use appropriate front ballast for a particular operating condition. Two-wheel drive tractors should only have enough ballast to maintain safe steering control. Remove ballast when it is no longer needed.

Chart shows carrying capacity per tire.

IMPORTANT: Do not overload tires. If maximum weight shown in chart is not enough for safety, reduce load or install tires with a higher load rating.

MAXIMUM LOAD PER WHEEL
