45/65 × 45 — NOTE: Ballast weight for bias ply tires from Goodyear data, radial ply weights from Michelin data. Contact your tire supplier for additional information. Under abnormal tire wear conditions, ballasting of rear tires may be desirable. Ballasting of front tires also should only be done where extremely rapid tire wear rates are encountered. Excessive weight will reduce machine performance. NOTE: Fillage beyond 75% of tire enclosed volume is not recommended. With liquid ballasting, inflation pressure must be checked at least once per day. NOTE: 1.6 kg (3 1 ⁄ 2 lb) Calcium Chloride per gallon water. Solution weighs 4.6 kg (10.15 lb) per gallon. NOTE: Total machine mass including all attachments in operating condition, all reservoirs at full capacity and ballasted tires must not exceed certification mass listed on the ROPS certification label. NOTE: Special air to water valves are required for liquid filled tires. 2548
