How to proceed:
Stage 1:
Stage 2:
To measure:
- Tractor tare (T).
- Couple the machine to the tractor.
To measure:
- Load on front axle (t1):
• Tractor + machine (transport position).
To do:
• Check in the tractor's operator's manual that the
value measured is below the maximum allowed
tractor front axle load.
• Check that tyre and rim specifiations are in
conformity with the requirements of the tractor
manufacturer.
• If the value measured exceeds the maximum
allowed front axle load, add ballast weights to the
rear until value is below, while remaining over
20 % of (T).
Example:
• Tractor tare (T) = 7500 kg (16535 lb)
• The front axle load must be of minimum 1500 kg
(3300 lb). (20 % of T)
• Load on front axle (t1) = 5860 kg (12920 lb).
• Check in the tractor's operator's manual that the
value measured is below the maximum allowed
tractor front axle load.
• Check that tyre and rim specifiations are in
conformity with the requirements of the tractor
manufacturer.
• If the value measured exceeds the maximum
allowed front axle load, add ballast weights to the
rear until value is below, while remaining over
20 % of (T).
• Repeat checking procedure.
