Zeihert, you may have asked the wrong question. Try asking how to fill a tire with fluid.

Z, I ran an 8N when it was brand new , wasn't much
of a tractor then and without fliud it is worthless. We had it from 48 till 60 , traded it on a 300 case round nose and what a step up and still have the 300 , use it to run 7'6" lilliston rotary mower .

i made up a valve to drain the tires from a pipe tee, a schrader valve from the harware store and some garden hose fittings with a water shut off valve. get the filling adapter from your farm supply store, farm and fleet sells them, or go to napa. run the garden hose from the tire valve to the tee, put the schrader valve in one of the other ports on the tee, and the shut off valve with the drain hose in the last opening. you can open the valve, drain the fluid to a drum, then when the tire pressure drops, close the valve and add air via the schrader valve to push the rest of the fluid out. it works really well, you can drain a tire in a few minutes this way.

Here I go again, LOL. Drop me an E-mail and I'll send you a page from a 1935 owners mauaul that show 2 or 3 ways to fill your tires with fluid. I myself use wind shield wiper fluid in my tires. It doesn't cause the rims to rust if you get a leak and it also doesn't taste good to animals so they don't drink it and die like antifreeze does.

i use a 12 volt marine wash down pump and the tire fill adapter from farm and fleet or napa. run the suction side hose into your chloride tank, and hook the pressure side up to the tire valve with the adapter. i jack the tire up so i can turn it. start the pump and let it fill. you can rotate the tire to check the fluid level by pressing the bleeder on the fill valve. you do need to bleed air out as the tire fills . when to get the tire to the the correct level, disconnect the fitting and put the valve in and add air. i also dip the o ring end of the tire valve in silicone grease. it helps a little to stop the corrosion. the pump runs about $70.00 from any marine supply store and it is made to handle salt water. try overtons marine supply on the net.

Thier is a device that fits a garden hose that lets water in through the valve stem with a relief valvle that lets air out,of course you must first let air out,in areas of colder climates(I'm in the deep south)you must use a special antifreeze for obviuos reasons

You can always use extra traction from time to time. Weather being in mud or going up hill. Brush hog weight is nothing compaired to fluid in the tires.

Taking it out is easy, most tractor inter tubes have a 2 piece valve stem. Unscrew the top part and let it run, into a barrel or something else. Try and catch the stem if you don"t let the air out first.
