Calculating the stability of the tractor - seed and fertiliser drill
combination
The load may impact the steerability of the tractor. The dead weight of the machine and the materials
in the hoppers may result in the loss of the stability of the tractor - seed and fertiliser drill
combination.
This Appendix provides a recommendation on how to ensure the stability of the tractor - seed and
fertiliser drill combination by means of calculation.
The following formula can be used to calculate the tractor’s minimum weight
𝐼
𝐹,𝑚𝑖𝑛
, which will allow
the load on the front axle to be 20% of the weight of an empty tractor:
𝐼
𝐹,𝑚𝑖𝑛
=
(𝐼
𝑅
×(𝑐+𝑑))−(𝑇
𝐹
×𝑏)+(0,2×𝑇
𝐸
×𝑏)
𝑎+𝑏
, in which
1) See the tractor manual
2) See the implement manual
3) To be measured
