The best way I find to drain calcium is to use a drill pump. You can pick them up at your local Princess Auto or parts store. The only problem is that many times the hose that comes with the pump is much to large to fit in the valve stem. So what you have to do is make an adapter by fitting smaller and smaller pieces of hose inside one another until the desired thickness is reached. Then jack the rear of the tractor up and rotate the tire until the valve stem is at the bottom. Rear tires should not have more than 8 or 10 pounds pressure so taking the check valve out is not a problem. Once the check valve is removed slide an appropriate size hose onto the valve stem and drain the fliud ito buckets. The fluid will be forced out by gravity so don't worry. Once the fluid gets to the height of the valve stem you insert your drill pump hose in until it reaches the bottom of the tire. Pump until you have removed all the fluid and the job is complete.
