The tractor wheel weights also provide increased ground traction so as to avoid slipping. The wheel weights also decreases the centre of gravity as a tractor carries heavy payloads.

How do you add weight to the front of a tractor?

5 Ways To Counterbalance Your Tractor

1. Suitcase Weights. Suitcase weights are simple, straightforward and an effective way to counterbalance a tractor.
2. Ballast Box. A ballast box is exactly what its name suggests.

Why are front tractor tires tilted?

Originally Answered: In a tractor, why are the front wheels in a tilted position? Tractors have positive camber. The reason for this arrangement is to provide lower steering effort. In race cars, you can observe negative camber which helps in providing better grip during high speed corners.

Why do tractors have narrow front wheels?

Also, because a tractor is usually pulling things, the heavy weight behind it pushes the rear wheels down, increasing their grip by providing more contact and less slippage. The two smaller wheels at the front have a much better steering radius which means it’s easier to turn sharp corners.

Why do tractors have low horsepower?

So by the formula its pretty clear that HP is directly proportional to the RPM and if you pay attention to the specification of a tractor, you would find that their rated RPM is quite low as compared to any car of the same CC engine. Hence, low RPM means low Horsepower.
