I think the tires on my buddys N are loaded. My question is how do you check the air PSI with the stem on top ?

Also should he un-load them and if so how do you do it ? I would assume you would remove the valve guts while the stem is on top then rotate to the bottom.

He is only gonna use ti to back blade some snow and stones doesn't want to risk rotting the wheels

Also remember that calcium chloride is a polutant and in most states is illegal to dump. Has to be handled by a tire dealer equiped and licensed for it. Anywhere it hits the ground nothing will grow for a very long time. I had my Kubota unloaded and reloaded with washer fluid and new tubes. It had been loaded TUBELESS! The tire dealer took the calcium chloride and handled it for me. They don't recomend loading with anything but washer fluid at that dealer anymore because of the environmental concerns.

In my part of the country "a very long time" is defined as about a year. I sure wish it were longer.

I've removed the CaCl solution from many tractor rears and used it in various areas such as gravel parking areas to control vegetation. It works great for awhile but I begin to get regrowth in about 12-18 months. Sure wish I had some more.

Well first off to move snow and do much of any thing with a blade you need to tired filled with fluid. As to checking PSI yes get the stem to the top and check/air to around 10-15 PSI. Now as to draining etc. Drop me and e-mail and I'll send you a page from a 1935 JD owners manual that will should you a few way to fill and if done back wards to drain them

If he's going to be moving snow, I'd recommend keeping them loaded if they look to be in good condition, unless he's got a set of tire chains.

Ozzie..... ..did you know you can "taste" salty non-poisonous calcium chloride? Did you know you can "feel and smell" sweet slippery anti-freeze? Did you know you need tractive weight to pull snowplow blade effectively even iff'n you have tire chains? Did you know rear ag-bar tire pressure is 12-14psi whether loaded or unloaded? Isn't that amazing? Did you know the N's front tire pressure is 26psi whether 4-19's or 5.5-16's??
Did you know you can gitt low pressure tire gauges from 4-wheel RV dealers that work whether loaded or unloaded and will NOT rust the gutts of the gauge..... ..HTH, Dell
