Tractor control
- To be checked:
• The total authorised weight.
• The permitted weight per axle.
• The authorised support weight on the tractor’s linkage.

- Complete the table below:
- Check that:
• The values calculated should be < or = to the tractor’s permissible values and the values for the tyres fitted to the tractor.
• It is essential that the minimum load on the front axle is > or = to 20% of the unladen tractor weight.
The machine must not be hitched to a tractor if:
ᇗ The total weight calculated is > than the maximum authorised weight.
ᇗ The weight on the front axle is < than the minimum required.
ᇗ M1 mini = Calculation of the minimum ballast need in front. ᇗ P1c = Calculation of the weight on the front axle
