    TIRES/WHEELS/SPACING/BALLAST _______________________________________ TIRE AND RIM EQUIPMENT Tire Inflation Specifications For normal tractor operation use the inflation pressure shown in the tire and wheel chart. The inflation pressure are based on cold inflation pressure recommendations by Tire and Rim Association Inc. For maximum tractor performance always adjust the tire pressure, within the minimum/maximum range, to conform with the actual load on the tires.
  • Page 88 TIRES/WHEELS/SPACING/BALLAST _______________________________________ A tire can explode during inflation and cause serious injury or death. Never increase air pressure beyond 35 PSI to seat the bead on the rim. Replace a tire if it has a defect. Replace a wheel rim which has cracks, wear or severe rust.
  • Page 89 TIRES/WHEELS/SPACING/BALLAST _______________________________________ Check Air Pressure Tire Pressure Check Interval ..Every 50 hours of operation or weekly. Check the condition of the tires and rims for wear or damage. Keep the tires inflated to the recommended pressures.

  • Page 94 TIRES/WHEELS/SPACING/BALLAST _______________________________________ TIRE SIZE COMBINATIONS — MFD Your MFD Tractor must use front and rear tire combinations that are correctly matched. The use of recommended tire combinations will give maximum tractor performance, extended tire life and reduced wear on drive train components. IMPORTANT: The tire size combinations shown below are specified to provide matched ground speeds of the front and rear tires.
  • Page 95 TIRES/WHEELS/SPACING/BALLAST _______________________________________ TRACTOR BALLAST Ballast for your tractor includes front end weights, rear wheel weights and liquid ballast in the rear tires. Front end weights improve the steering characteristic when heavy hitch loads cause a movement of tractor weight from the front to the rear wheels. Rear wheel weights and adding liquid to the rear tires increase traction by putting weight on the driving wheels.
  • Page 96 TIRES/WHEELS/SPACING/BALLAST _______________________________________ NOTE: When you have too much ballast installed on the tractor, you will see the clear shape of the tire tread in the ground which is an indication of no slippage. With too little ballast, the tire tread marks will not show because of the tire slippage.
