Filling with just plain water is the easiest thing to do. All you need is the adapter and a pressurized water source. Pull up to the garden hose, stop with the valve stem on top. Deflate the tire. Remove the valve stem (It's 2-piece). Screw on the adapter. Attach the hose to the adapter. Turn on the water. Periodically stop and push the little button on the side to let the air out. When no more air comes out, it's as full as its going to get. Quickly remove the adapter and screw the valve stem back on. You'll lose some air and maybe a little water, but it's okay. Just top it off with air.
If you keep the tractor inside, and it rarely gets below zero CELSIUS, no problem. You could always dump the water if you happen to get a stretch of unusually cold weather, and refill when it warms up.
