Ballasting Tractor
Add weight to front end if needed for stability. Heavy
pulling and heavy rear-mounted implements tend to lift
front wheels. Add enough ballast to maintain steering
control and prevent tip-over.
Refer to the implement operator’s manual, along with
“Using Implement Codes” in this section, to determine
the minimum number of front weights that are required
for your tractor model.
