I"m a one tractor operation, and will be resetting some hay lots only. Allan"s comment on the weight on the front end is also a serious thought. I actually run water in the rears, and I have an FEL on the tractor. I feel the weight is too heavy for a 42pto horse to pull in the field in addition to an implement. A neighbor runs weights on his 5610"s rears, and doesn"t like water. I don"t really like the weights since I work by myself, and don"t want to manage the weight with flats etc. I"ll probably take the FEL off, and leave my back fully ballasted. I just don"t want to have excessive weight, and wanted opinions on how others operated.
