Purpose and Scope
This engineering practice is intended as a guide to determine the minimum ballast and tread settings recommended for operation of an agricultural front loader mounted on a two wheel drive tractor or a two wheel drive tractor with front assist as defined in section 3.1.1.1 and 3.1.1.2 of ASAE S390.3. These ballast and tread setting recommendations are intended to reduce the risk of vehicle overturn in typical operation.
