- Current Kioti CK27HST and Cub Cadet 1810. Previous NH1510 Hydro, AC D14, Oliver 1355?, and JD 314 Lawn Tractor
Any one have an estimate (or better yet a load cell, strong chain, and a fixed attachment point to test).
Wondering how much hitch pulling force a Kioti CK30 HST with a FEL, Box blade, and R4s would do on level grass covered ground. The estimated weight would be around 4600 pounds (3100 tractor-tires not loaded + 750 FEL + 550 box blade + 200 operator). Assuming 4WD engaged in low range with slack taken up and easy application of HST pedal (ie not running start or rough power application). Would tractor loose traction or run out of power to drive the wheels? What would happen on dry concrete?
Thanks
