Massey 2927

Hi guys I am new here. I am having difficulties removing my front tire of my Massey Ferguson tractor. Can anyone advise me on how to remove the tire. Please see attached picture. Please help...

Are you trying to remove the tire from the rim or the rim from the tractor? To remove the rim from the tractor you should break the nut loose while it's on the ground then jack it up and remove the nut. The rim should then slide off the shaft. Most nuts are right hand thread though a few through history have been left hand thread. Normally you turn a nut counter clockwise to loosen. Left hand thread is turned clockwise to loosen. Removing the tire from the rim is a different process altogether.

looks like broken rim so setting on ground may not help as much as usual.
locking in 4wd may also help hold axle while removing nut.

just to clarify....you did fully remove the cotter pin correct?
