It's a loader, put fluid in the tires. You're gonna be working on slopes, put fluid in the tires. It's a big tracotr, most likely with a high center of gravity, put fluid in the tires. That's 3 strikes. The advantages of fluid out weight the disadvantages. We rented a few tractors from the dealer with a 9 shank chisel plow, big MFWD tractors. Only problem was they didn't have fluid in the tires yet. The tractor had plenty of power to pull it, but the tires would constantly be slipping instead of pulling. If you are working on any kind of a slope with a weight behind you, like a big haybine or a heavy manure spreader, it'll push you around on corners etc. We use a 14 ft. Hydra swing behind our Massey 285 with loaded tires. In some feilds it'll push it around some on corners. We also use the Oliver 1855 with loaded tires in the really hot months because it has a canopy over my head to keep the sun off. It weighs about 4,000 more than the 285, so it doesn't get pushed around nearly as much, if at all, and it's got worse tires. Donovan from Wisconsin
