I run my rear tires 3/4 full for around 1400 extra pounds on the rear and a 300 lb counter weight on the front to steer better due to the orchard 18.4 x 16" tires being so wide. Now I have a loader/bale spears on the front that can pick up 2,000 lbs and I even need more weight on the rear! I have to move 1,800 lb bales with it in deep snow and mud and it can be fun sometimes on the hills. Makes it a little light on the back for traction. It only has a 3 cyl perkins gas around 40 hp but gearing takes care of that problem! Mark H.
