I'm working on clearing brush with my new ratchet-rake attachement for my trusty 2210. Should picked up the ratchet rake a long time ago! Running with the FEL and ballast box, what is the general conscensus on tire pressure? I know opinions will vary but what are would you run with this application. FWIW.. this tractor is not used for mowing.. just FEL work around the yard.

with any kind of FEL load, I would prefer to keep max pressure in the front tires, per the tire sidewall. Do you have r4's on the front?

I'd have to look.. they're next aggressive tread up from turf tires. Stockers that came on it.

I have R4s and a loader. All four tires are filled to 70% with RimGuard, then topped up with air to 45psi front, 20psi rear.

My Kubota manual says max psi (as printed on tire sidewall).

Just looked at my 300cx manual. It says 4psi over front tire max pressure on sidewall.

I run my fronts at or about the max pressure listed on the sidewall. Never had any problems with them that way.

I always forget to air up my front tires, until I have an awkward load hanging on a chain from the bucket, and smash down one tire, and the tractor begins to awkwardly tilt.

I should remember to air them up a couple of times a year.

When not doing FEL work, should the tire pressure be brought down at all? If you are mowing with R4s, is there an ideal pressure to reduce turf impact?

If the FEL is on keep your pressures high
