In this blog, we shall take a detailed look at what a tractor front loader is, and how to drive it. In addition, we will also look at selecting the right tyres for your tractor. A tractor front loader is a type of tractor that has a wide bucket attached to the front end of two arms. It can scoop up loose material from the ground and move it to another place without pushing it. It is usually wheeled, but sometimes it can be on tracks.
How to Drive
To ensure stability and visibility, position the bucket below the tractor hood when driving with a load. Load the bucket evenly and within the loader’s capacity. Avoid obstacles and keep your speed slow when moving the load up or down. Always carry loads as low as possible and never travel with a raised bucket. Turning can make contents shift or slide, so be extra careful. Do not load or turn at the same time as this could overturn the machine. Spilling the load onto the hood can damage your Kubota tractor and injure you, so do not max out your vertical lift even when stationary.
How to Choose the Right Tyres
Tractor tyres have reinforced shoulder walls and high-density compounds. These make the treads wear resistant and multipurpose. However, the vehicle’s application matters when buying tractor tyres. Haulage and farm use require different types of tractor tyres. Farm use tyres may have less mileage than haulage and road use tyres. It also helps if you research on the tractor tyre price before going in for the purchase.
