Tractor ballasting
For sufîš¿cient traction and maximum performance in heavy draft operations, and to counterbalance rear-mounted
equipment, add sufîš¿cient weight to the tractor in the form of liquid ballast, cast iron weights, or a combination of
both. Add only enough weight to provide good traction and stability. Adding more weight than is needed results in
unnecessary soil compaction, increased rolling resistance, and higher fuel consumption.
NOTE: When adding weight to the tractor, tire pressures may need to be increased. See 9-2 in this manual.
Front-end ballast may be required for stability and steering control when weight shifts from the front wheels to the rear
wheels as the three point hitch raises an implement.
