IMPORTANT ISSUES:
The inflation pressure for the front and rear tires on a 4-wheel drive tractor
should be the same in order to prevent the tires from being worn unevenly.
2.13.2 Tire Removal and Refit
Tire Removal
Special tools are needed to assemble and disassemble a tire. Contact a qualified tire service center to
replace tires.
WARNING
:
1.
When inflating the tire, never remove the lug nuts from the hub. This could cause the tire to fall off and may
result in damage to the tractor and serious personal injury.
2.
Never disassemble the bolts connecting the tire, the hub and rim in the inflated state. The bolts may
become dislodged and cause an accident.

14 Counterweights
Counterweights can be added or removed depending on the requirements of the tractor. When using the tractor
for fieldwork, you can use rear counterweights to improve the tractor’s traction and ability. When the tractor is
used on hilly terrain, front counterweights should be added to avoid the ―lifting of the head‖ during use.
The rear counterweights are cast iron disks. The weight of each piece is 70 lbs. Two pieces can be installed on
each of the rear wheels. The maximum weight of the rear counterweights is 280 lbs. The weight of each front
counterweight is 40 lbs., and up to 8 pieces can be installed. The maximum total weight of the front
counterweight is 320 lbs.
WARNING
:
Remove the counterweight from a rear wheel before removing the wheel from the
tractor to avoid injury or damage.
