Pneumatic Tires Adding Liquid Weight It is acceptable to add liquid ballast to the tire / wheel assembly on your Mahindra Tractors. Consult your Local Tire Dealer or Manufacturer of Tires for ballasting process. Inflation Keep tires properly inflated to the pressure as shown in the Chart below. Under inflation will damage tire cord and may cause the tire to slip on the rim and tear out the tube valve stem. Over inflation results in excessive slippage, causing rapid tire wear. Air pressure should be checked once a week with an accurate low pressure gauge having one pound graduations. Air pressure should not be allowed to drop or exceed the recommendations. Always see that the tire valve caps are in place and screwed tight. The caps prevent loss of air through the valve core. Further, they prevent debris from entering and damaging the valve core and air chamber in the tires. Exceptions (Rear Tires only) When plowing with a moulded plow, the left hand or land wheel should be inflated to 2 p.s.i. lesser than right hand or furrow wheel. Chart A-1 Tire Load Rating Model
