My JD 40S will be moved to some vacant land we have in Colorado to assist with homesite preparation (culvert, driveway, boulder collection, etc). The land is sandy, with a knarly ground cover plant, and lots of cactus with needle-like thorns about an inch long. My front tires are 6.00 x 16 implement tires - original equipment grade tires.
The problem I anticipate is that the thorns will puncture the front tires (and the tubes), and when I repair the tube, the puncture will be so small I"ll go crazy trying to find it - and then the next day I"ll have another puncture, and the day after that, etc, etc.
What ideas do you have to minimize the cactus problem? I"ll be glad to answer any questions on this.
