Front wheel weighs are 43 pounds each. Not too easy to find though, as tractors were not equipped with the front wheel weights as commonly as were the rear weights. Two weight (total of 4 weights) on each front wheel would add 170 lbs. By putting solution in the front tires, you can probably get another 200 lbs or so. Problem is that the M does not steer all that easy with out the weight on the front. With that extra weight, you are going to build up your arm and back muscles!! I would think that a 1500 lb bale on the 3 pt hitch would be no problem for the M provided the hydraulics are set up to handle the lift.
