CAUTION: Additional front ballast may be needed for rear-mounted implements. Heavy pulling and heavy rear-mounted implements tend to lift front wheels. Use proper lifting equipment, for weights,

Determine the minimum number of front weights required from implement code in the implement operators manual.

NOTE: Approximate weight of Quik-Tatch™ weights is 47 kg (104 lb). Drive slowly over rough ground when implement is raised.

Up to 14 Quik-Tatch™ weights can be installed on the front of the machine.

  1. Install weights in pairs, one on each side of the ballast retaining pin (C). Place weights evenly on left and right sides of the retaining pin.

  2. To hold six weights or fewer in position, insert retaining bolts (B) through holes and secure with a nut. Tighten to specification.
