Wheel Weights - MASSEY FERGUSON 410 Operators Instruction Book

Maintenance and Adjustment

Wheel weights

Wheel weights are available for the rear wheels,
consult with your local Massey Ferguson Dealer for
the correct weights for your tractor. Only sufficient
weight should be added to provide traction and
stability. Adding more weight than necessary results
in excessive loads being imposed on the tractor and
a higher fuel consumption.
Ensure that an equal amount of weights are fitted to
each side of the tractor. When adding weight, adhere
to the maximum tire capacity loading. The tire
pressures will have to be increased to accommodate
the additional weight. Consult with your Massey
Ferguson Dealer or tire supplier to ensure that the
loadings are not exceeded.
Rear wheel weights
Rear wheel weights (Fig. 128) are bolted to the
outside of the wheel. Additional weights can be bolted Fig.128
to the first adaptor weight. Each weight weighs
approximately 45 kg (100 lb). When fitting the first
adaptor weight, ensure that the cutout in the weight
aligns with the tire valve for accessibility.
Tighten the weight bolts to a torque of 80 Nm (60 lbf
ft).
