Avoid Using Ground Engaging Equipment

(Model S2048 Only)
IMPORTANT: Your S2048 tractor is NOT intended
for use with ground engaging equipment. Use of
such equipment could result in damage to
transmission components.
Tractor Model S2048 is not intended for use with ground
engaging equipment such as a rear tiller, disk, dirt blade
or plow.

Using Front Weights

CAUTION: Tractor front wheel weights
improve stability in most slope operation. To
avoid injury, add front wheel weights for
better front-end stability and steering when
using a rear mounted attachment or pulling a
cart.
NOTE: Before installing wheel weights on your
machine, MAKE SURE that the tire valve stems are
facing the inside.
Install front wheel weights for better stability and
steering control when you use equipment such as the
rear-mounted grass bagger or dumpcart.
Remove front wheel weights when not required.

Using Rear Wheel Weights

IMPORTANT: When adding weight to rear of
tractor, use wheel weights only.
34 kg (75 lbs.) MAX. each wheel.
Use of rear wheel weights is recommended when an
attachment, such as snowthrower or snow blade is
used.
