D. Optional Transmission and Axle W
eights
Adding an axle or transmission option to a tractor will affect the weight on the front and rear axle
based on the option selected and the model tractor. The following chart shows the effect on the axle
by option and model. (The 2290 and 2335 have no axle options available.)

E. Optional Equipment Adding an option to the tractor will affect the axle weight of a unit. The
following chart details the three major options available for Buhler Versatile 4WD tractors and their
effect on axle and total weight when installed on a tractor.

F. Diesel Fuel
Fuel added to the fuel tanks has to be factored in to the base tractor weight. To do this, use the
following equation:
liters of fuel x 0.84 kg/L = fuel weight (kg)
(Gallons of fuel x 7.01 lbs./gal.) = fuel weight (lbs.)
The effect on the front and rear axle must also be calculated. Multiply the total fuel weight by 0.58 for
the front axle and 0.42 for the rear axle.
Example:
100 L fuel added
100 L x 0.84 kg/L = 84 kg
84 kg x 0.58 = 49 kg added to front axle
84 kg x 0.42 = 35 kg added to rear axle
100 gal. fuel added
100 gal. x 7.01 lbs./gal. = 701 lbs.
701 lbs. x 0.58 = 407 lbs. added to front axle
701 lbs. x 0.42 = 294 lbs. added to rear axle
