Weight of 3 point sprayer full of water??

I have a new 200 gallon 3pt. Wylie sprayer. I will be using it behint a 7710 and a TB110. I figure full it will weigh 1800 or 1900 lbs (water and machine itself) Will my tractors handle this wt. without problems?

Depending on your gound contours you might need front counter weights but you should be fine!

Art, you nailed it. Ive put 2 days in with my sprayer. Tractor handles it ok but is a bit light in the front. Wts would help. Im going to try to have some next season. thanks

Depending on what you are running over, another good option is to get your front tires filled with foam. It's like night and day for both of my tractors. I just wish I had done it sooner.

The Ford 7110 and NH tb110 are good sized tractors. (86+ pto hp) You should have no issues with only 200 gallon sprayer on the back. Your lift capacity for both is much much higher and you have plenty of front end weight. Your JD 5303 should also be ok unless you have some steep terrain.
