WEIGHT CALCULATIONS
1.
Calculation of the minimum front ballast for rear-mounted implements G
V min
:
This result is entered in the table under Point 12.3.
2.
Calculation of the minimum rear ballast for front-mounted implements G
H min
:
This result is also entered in the table under Point 12.3.
3.
Calculation of the actual front axle load T
v tat
:
If the required minimum front ballast (G
V min
) is not reached with the front-mounted implement (G
V
),
the weight of the front-mounted implement must be increased to the weight of the minimum front
ballast!
Now enter the calculated actual front axle load and the permissible front axle load specified in the
tractor operating manual in the table under Point 12.3.
4.
Calculation of the actual total weight G
tat
:
If the required minimum rear ballast (GH) is not reached with the rear-mounted implement (GH min),
the weight of the rear-mounted implement must be increased to the weight of the minimum rear
ballast!
Now enter the calculated total weight and the permissible total weight specified in the tractor
operating manual in the table under Point 12.3.
