You need an adaptor from garden hose to tire stem (avail from TSC and others) and a valve to install between the hose and the adaptor. Mix the calcium chloride solution in a large plastic garbage can about 10 feet higher than the tire to be filled. Jack up the tractor so the tire can be rotated till the valve stem is up. Put one end of the garden hose in the container of calcium chloride solution. With the valve on the other end open, start a siphon and then close the valve. Connect the valve to the tire and start to fill. Shut the valve a few times during the filling and let the trapped air out of the tire. You can tell how much is in the tire by rotating until fluid comes out. EEA
