TC30 ROPS height with R4's

MDM · Aug 17, 2006

Can some one tell me the ROPS height on the TC30 with R4's? New Holland's specs say 82.4" with Ags. I figured the R4's would lower it a little. My garage door is 82". I found 1 post that says it was a little over 84" with R4's. Is that correct? If so, New Holland's spec page must be wrong.

Thanks.

Does anyone have a TC30 with R4's they can measure for me?

ive got a TC33 (same tractor just a few more hp)

i can measure it this weekend for ya if no one else gets around to it before then

Thanks. ^ I would appeciate that. I think the 33 has foldable ROPS though, so it might be different that the TC30.

I have a TC30 with r4's. I'll be in PA where my tractor is this weekend. I'll measure and post the numbers for you.

I have 80.5 inches with R4's on my TC 30. 82 inch door is going to be tight.

Good luck

Thanks Roger. Yess, it will be tight, but it will fit.

I was also worried about the height of my TC 30 with r4 tires fitting in my garage. The tractor clears the door with about 3/4" to spare! I have been storing my tractor in the garage since 2004 and I have even added tire chains and I have still never touched the door frame. I just take it slow and keep the snow and ice from building up in front of the garage door.

I don't keep mine in the garage, I have a barn, but it is in the garage atleast once a year, and I have to dis-connect the garage door from the opener and push the door all the way up to get it in. I could check tomorrow. sounds like next time your at the dealer , with tape measure in hand.

OK , I walked out to the garage and got my owners manual,
section 4-7
top of ROPS- rigid

Turf tires 82.9"
Ag. tires 83.8"
R4 tires 82.4"

I'd still bring that tape measure to the dealer and take a real close look at that door opening
