DUAL TIRES (IF EQUIPPED)

2. Flange type axle

A dual-tire adapter mounted to the tractor's rear wheel
flange is available as an option.

BALLAST

WARNING
To avoid personal injury or death:
• Additional
ballast
transporting heavy implements. When the
implement is raised, drive slowly over rough
ground, regardless of how much ballast is used.
• Do not fill the front wheels with liquid to
maintain steering control.

1. Front ballast

Add weights if needed for stability and improved
traction.
Heavy pulling and heavy rear mounted implements
tend to lift up the front wheels.
Add enough ballast to maintain steering control and to
prevent tipping over. Remove the weight when it is no
longer needed.

1.1 Front end weights (option)

Front end weights can be attached to the bumper.
See your implement operator's manual for required
number of weights or consult your local Kubota Dealer
about their usage.

both.
