Ballasting

For optimal stability and steering in the field and during transport, maintaining sufficient weight on the axles is vital. Flexible and job-based ballasting of your machine optimises your fuel consumption, brings the power to the ground or enables higher payloads. John Deere offers a wide range of ballasting solutions up to 55 kg/hp. Below are some popular choices, but you can get a lot more from your dealer

EZ BALLAST

Enhance the versatility of your 7R Series tractor (MY11 and younger) by adding or removing the 1.7 t belly weight in seconds, at the touch of a button, by simply driving over the weight for pick-up or release - no need to leave the cab.
