Rear weights
The rear weight kit is available with a set of twelve,
twenty four or forty two, 30 kg (67 lbs), suitcase style
weights (12). The bracket (13) and hardware, weighs
approximately 98 kg. (215 lbs).

that have a PTO option or a 3-point hitch option. The
PTO or 3-point hitch is considered part of the rear axle
ballast.

hand tie rod nuts (14) and withdrawing the tie rod
fully toward the opposite fender. Loosen the bolt (15)
on the rear of the bracket releasing the cast block
(10).

hand side are held in place by the cast block installed
through the weight cut out. The remaining weights are
held in position by the tie rod.

remove it from the tractor. Starting with the sixth
weight from the left remove six additional weights
from the bracket. Slide the four remaining left hand
weights to the right and remove. Remove the cast
block (10). Slide the remaining weights to the left and
remove them from the bracket. This will expose the
right hand retaining block.
