6.1.1 Calculating the actual values for the total tractor weight, tractor axle loads
and load capacities, as well as the minimum ballast
The approved total tractor weight, specified in the vehicle documenta-
tion, must be greater than the sum of the
• tractor's empty weight
• ballast weight and
• total weight of the attached machine or noseweight of the
hitched machine.
This notice applies only to Germany.
If, having tried all possible alternatives, it is not possible to comply
with the axle loads and / or the approved total weight, then a survey
by an officially-recognised motor traffic expert can, with the approval
of the tractor manufacturer, be used as a basis for the responsible
authority to issue an exceptional approval according to § 70 of the
German Regulations Authorising the Use of Vehicles for Road Traffic
and the required approval according to § 29, paragraph 3 of the Ger-
man Road Traffic Regulations.
