RIDE, TRACTION & PERFORMANCE
TG Tractor—Tire Load and Inflation
The inflation pressures are based on cold inflation pressure recommended by the Tire and Rim
Association Inc.
How to Use the Load and Inflation Charts:
1. Determine the ballasted tractor front axle weight and tractor rear axle weight.
Note: If using fully mounted or high vertical drawbar implements, add the weight of the implement
to the rear weight (refer to implement manual for weight).
2. Find the appropriate chart (Front Singles or Duals, Rear Singles, Duals or Triples).
3. Find tire size and correct rating.
4. Follow the row across to the first weight that is above your tractor (front or rear) axle weight.
5. Follow the column up to find the minimum recommended tire inflation pressure.
Note: Never exceed the load capacity for a particular tire. To obtain more load capacity, use duals
or change to a different tire.
Note: Never exceed the inflation pressure for a particular tire. The last number in the chart is the
maximum inflation pressure for that particular tire.
Note: Increase tire pressures 2 to 4 PSI over those stated in the chart for any of the following
conditions:
•
If tire pressures are not checked daily
•
Sharp turning and or braking will be encountered
•
In-Furrow operation (Furrow tire only)
•
Side hill operation
