How much weight do you have in your ballast box?

about 600 lbs. dead chevy 350 heads (free from machine shop) and 3 bags sackrete. 10.00 total expense.

Strokerduster, is the weight bucket held up using the 3 pt. hitch? Why I ask is that when I put my weight bucket on my Kubota B1550 I have chains attached to the lower links then they run up to the top link. I then lower the weight bucket down and let the chains take up the slack and hold ALL OF THE WEIGHT. I feel that this takes the pressure off of the hydraulic system. Does this make sense to you?

 

[strokerduster]

it was designed to carry much more than 600lbs on the 3 pt hitch so i don't worry about it. it's hydraulic pressure holding it and i let it all the way down when not in use. thats what the factory made the ballast box to do. i don't see a problem either way.................. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

SRS, the hydraulic system is not constantly applying pressure to the 3pt arms when the handle in the neutral position. Pressure is only applied when you put the handle in the raise position.
Chaining it up only keeps the 3pt arms from bleeding down if you don't have position control.
