I have a B3030 with a BH75, I haven't really read in the manual where it sais not to load them with a BH and my dealer loaded em' up for free so I took it. I have about 40 hours with my BH alone in the last two months and I can't say that I have seen a problem nor can I see where a problem could exist. A thread discussed this before and about the only thought that was posed that made me think a little was when you raise the rear tires off the ground with the stabilizers, perhaps that loads up the axle in a way that it was not intended, that is the only idea that made any sense to my peanut sized noggin.

So, I try to keep the tires on the ground but light and it works fine. Admittedly to level the machine out I have been working the BH with the tires off of the ground some.

I look forward to hearing from someone more knowledgable.

In the end though I don't think that I would ever own a tractor without loaded tires, for me it is about traction plowing and stability mowing, world of difference that stuff in those tires makes.
